Passage from page 6 of Annalee's transcript:
When I picked up the word homosexual, I went to the library and started looking up things. It was a pretty big library and they'd have all kind of things, I thought. So that's where I started to look. Everything I read was written by males, generally by psychiatrists, about men who were very sick. I would read that, but I didn't understand some of the terms they referred to, and it didn't sound like anything I felt. I couldn't identify with it at all.
