From Gay Community News, Feb. 8, 1986...
"The only thing the gays said was that they would
be jobless -- the couturiers, et cetera, the hairdressers
and all of that [if Corazon Aquino beats Ferdinand Marcos
for presedent of the Phillippines].... And the gays said,
'You know, we gays, we are men become women because of our
reach for beauty. You know us. We love beauty, and without
love -- and they say hate, and we love God and we don't like
Communists.'"
-- Imelda Marcos, wife of President Marcos, still
arguing that her husband will win the "gay vote"
in upcoming elections for the presidency. Mrs.
Marcos said dressmakers and hairdressers told
her they were afraid that they would lose their
jobs under a "less flamboyant administration,"
according to the New York Times.
