“From this, your readers will see that I have no prejudice whatever, or the least antipathy, to homosexuals. Quite to the contrary. I have among my friends men and women either complete Uranians or Bi-Sexuals. I have found them far above the average in intelligence, ability, sensitiveness and charm. I feel deeply with them, because I know that their sufferings are greater and more complex than that of most people. There is, however, one predominant tendency among homosexuals which I must oppose. It is their attempt to claim every outstanding personality for their creed, to ascribe to them traits and characteristics inherent in themselves.”

Nice to know that if Emma had the language she would be pro-trans

Uranian is a general old-timey term for queers, made for gay men first but applied across the board to lesbians, trans people, etc. both in and out of community. Uranians rise up ✊️
