Behind the walls leaders follow followers.

Behind the walls some pay with their lives so that others might not be slightly inconvenienced.
Behind the walls the majority is right even when it's wrong.
Behind the walls weak and vulnerable beliefs generate a motivation to suppress all other ideas.
Behind the walls there are men who prefer sex with men but who think that they're something other than gay.
Behind the walls "masculine" men think they're "better" than feminine men.
Those behind these walls see no wall at all. If you see these walls, then talk to them. For it's by the affirmation of their existence that these walls will begin to crumble.
