I Want To Make Activism A Bigger Part Of My Life, While Hopefully Maintaining The Opportunity To Help Out Causes That I Really Care About. And Being An Actor Allows Me To Do That. Shooting A Cisco Commercial Allows Me To Do That. I Mean, Doing All These Things Allows Me To Talk About These Issues. But Don't Think There Aren't Those Moments Where I'm Like, "what Am I Doing? I Have To Quit My Job And Chain Myself To A Tree." Believe Me, I Have Those Moments.

When I Feel Strongly About Something, I'm Not So Quiet.

If You Are A Lgbtq Person, If You're Going To Travel Somewhere, You Do Need To Be Mindful Of Where You're Going, Particularly Depending On The Country. That's Just Something Unfortunately You Need To Think About. It's Something You Need To Think About If You're A Woman, It's Something To Think About Particularly If You're A Trans Woman, And The Problems A Lot Of Trans People Face When They're Travelling.

This World Would Be A Whole Lot Better If We Just Made An Effort To Be Less Horrible To One Another. If We Took Just Five Minutes To Recognize Each Other's Beauty Instead Of Attacking Each Other For Our Differences - That's Not Hard - It's Really An Easier And Better Way To Live.

We're Trying, Despite Having Done Research And Having Obviously Preconceived Ideas, We Try Our Best To Be As Open-hearted As Possible, And Try To Create Context. So That's Always Going To Be The Challenge, Making A Program Like 'gaycation', And We Are Always Thinking About It, Reflecting On It, And Doing Our Best To Show The Whole Picture As Much As Possible In A 45-minute Span. Hopefully That Comes Across.
