I came out in 1993 and have never passed as hetero. My personal rules for staying alive in the bad old days included, but were not limited to:
- keep your head up in public
- don't trust cops
- never travel alone
- unless proven otherwise, assume any hetero you encounter, including family, will always choose their comfort over your rights
- beware groups of white boys
- don't let the bastards get you down
