I know that part of the reason I read Tolkien when I'm ill is that there is an almost total absence of sexuality in his world, which is restful.
A. S. Byatt
The police or any higher authority should never try and criminalise people for their sexuality. It is something that is to great extent given by God.
Abhimanyu Singh
Some Christians see the biblical teaching on homosexuality as reflecting the culture and times in which the Bible was written and not reflecting God's eternal perspective on homosexual people. Others believe these scriptures represent God's timeless will for how human beings practice intimacy.
Adam Hamilton
Female performers have been doing this for years - pushing the envelope about sexuality - and the minute a man does it, everybody freaks out.
Adam Lambert
I'm proud of my sexuality. I embrace it. It's just another part of me.
I'm proud of my sexuality.
Sexuality is very fluid, but I never chose to be gay.
Adam Silvera
Obviously, in dealing with a relationship, sexuality has to be involved, and jealousy and emotions like that. And I don't know, I've always been intrigued by those emotions.
Adrian Lyne
I have no problems with the homosexuality out there.
Adrien Broner
How can our industry better represent the reality of our larger community and provide our next generation a proper example of what they see around them every single day? This representation should also look beyond race and include those of all body types, religion, sexuality, and gender identification.
Adwoa Aboah
I am not a prisoner of my sexuality like men younger than myself although I write about being a prisoner.
Al Goldstein
I think sexuality is a window into someone's soul.
Alan Ball
I think all writers are armchair psychologists to some degree or another, and I think a character's sexuality is fascinating. It's a great way to really get at the root of their identity, because it's such a personal thing.
I would like to see the breakdown of the binary way of looking at gender and sexuality.
Alaska
Since I was a kid, I've always been skinny and frail framed. I felt powerless as a child, but I always saw so much power in femininity and female sexuality.
I'm not interested in offending anyone. If homosexuality was an issue for me, I would have moved out of New York years ago. I find that laughable.
Alec Baldwin
The reason there's so many gay people now is because it's a chemical warfare operation, and I have the government documents where they said they're going to encourage homosexuality with chemicals so that people don't have children.
Alex Jones
I'm lucky enough to live in London, which is a boiling pot of every kind of language and background and demographic and sexuality and gender, and yet most of what we're seeing in the cinema is not reflective of that.
Alex Lawther
Other than my sexuality, I am vulnerable regarding my physical appearance, as I am not what people considered ideal by most standards. For the entertainment business, I am not the body type of what is typically cast for television or movies.
Alex Newell
When depicting Asian people in movies, books, and television or as historical figures, it's more important to humanize them and give them all of the dimensions of humanity, and that includes sexuality. Ascribe the human the full range of human qualities.
Alex Tizon
Sexuality is one of the ways that we become enlightened, actually, because it leads us to self-knowledge.
Personally, I would never use sexuality or looks as a selling point.
A good way to vilify women is by attacking their sexuality.
Intimacy is a wonderful thing. It's frustrating that growing up I thought it was wrong. It isn't. Exploring your sexuality is important when you're growing up.
My sexuality's very fluid, and my gender is very fluid.
You walk off the plane in Rio, and your blood temperature goes up. The feel of the wind on your face, the water on your skin, the taste of the food, the music, the sexuality; Brazilians are very comfortable in their sexuality.
There are so many people out there struggling with racism, or their sexuality or where they're brought up or how wealthy their family was ans these issues are not hidden, they were in the late 19 century and they're still important today.
There are things coming from me that I felt I wanted to talk about. My search for my own blend of spirituality, my acknowledgement of my sexuality, my being the single mother of a young man.
Human sexuality has been regulated and shaped by men to serve men's needs.
I have no problem with it. I don't look on homosexuality as an aberration. It's just they way they're born, and how could any relationship between two people in a committed relationship be wrong, regardless of gender?
All human beings deserve equal treatment, no matter their gender identity or sexuality.
I don't think the idea of homosexuality is really taboo any more. Our culture is evolving. This is an exciting time to be living.
When I was born, the wisdom was that homosexuality was an illness; that it was caused largely by somebody's mother, and a distorted relationship with the mother. And now, as I live my life - married to a husband, with kids - it's an identity.
Homosexuality is like the weather. It just is.
Sexuality is a big issue, but there are others - how much you commit to a relationship, to social obligation, to honesty and being honest with yourself.
The LGBTQ community refers to people's sexual preferences - lesbians like women, gay people like men - and children shouldn't be walking advertisements for sexuality when they are not old enough to make their own decisions.
All women do have a different sense of sexuality, or sense of fun, or sense of like what's sexy or cool or tough.
Women have a certain sexuality, and I think their bodies are beautiful, and I'm not embarrassed to explore that in a film. But there are things you get offered that are vulgar and violent - just like there's a side of me that's vulgar and violent.
When I completely submerge my sensuality or my sexuality, I'm not very interesting.
I actually have a peculiar feminism that does not involve the idea that women shouldn't be sexy. Female characters written in comics have always been pretty damned sexy, and used their sexuality. And I don't have any problem with that.
I'm not a very good lover. I'm so nervous about my sexuality.
Frankly, no one had ever asked me before. My sexuality is something I'm completely comfortable with and open about.
My sexuality is something I'm completely comfortable with and open about. There's a lot of prejudice toward us but the more people talk about it, the less of a big deal it will be. And that will be better for everyone.
And for anyone who ever thought that Ellen and I broke it off because of sexuality, you couldn't be more mistaken. And for anyone who thought my mother's prayers had anything to do with me marrying a man, forget it.
I put myself on the line with my truth and my sexuality. That is my choice. My choice.
Issues over same-sex marriage and LGBT people in the PCUSA are not new: there is a 40-plus year history of arguments and tacit agreements over the issue of sexuality in the denomination, and the first openly gay minister in the PCUSA was ordained in 2011.
Trump's defense of white Anglo-Saxon Protestantism is gathering those who support him into a strong solidified base. Since the election of Francis, Republicans have been very wary of the Pope, attacking his liberal statements on homosexuality, global warming, and capitalism.
In Pope Francis's 'Amoris Laetitia' (The Joy of Love), an apostolic exhortation on Catholic family life, he does not make earth-shattering doctrinal changes with regards to divorced Catholics, same-sex married Catholics, or the church's stance on homosexuality.
Judges can bring their own biases about sexuality in the courtroom, causing victims untold pain in the telling and retailing of their stories.
My sexuality's something that's intimate. It's not anything that I'm ashamed of.
