So what are we to make of today's sexual landscape, where we see the most diverse range of orientations and expressions of sexuality in history? Lesbian, gay, queer, cis, pansexual, leather daddies, stone butch, asexual... the list keeps growing. And there is entrenched push-back against that expansion. So who gets to say what about whom? And as the sexuality landscape broadens, what will it mean?"]

I am still feeling the loss of Robin Williams as a creative force. His frenetic comedic insights helped me think differently about the world and his passionate humanistic acting in a diverse range of roles reminded me why we should care.
