Abuse in the street
1980
Chrissy talks about homophobia he has experienced whilst dressed up on the door of clubs – “If I had a pound for every time I’ve been shouted at by people walking past, ‘You’re going to hell’, and other abuse, and these are people who are drunk with a cigarette in their hand, the usual rubbish. The amount of time I’ve been cursed by Big Issue sellers, until I turn round and tell them at least I’ve got a home!”
