Image description

Stills from the film Pride where Bromley is in the bookshop and upset about being called a pervert.

Bromley: They called us perverts.

Mark: Bromley. It’s time for an important part of your education. Hands up in this room if you’ve ever been called a name like that.

Every single hand is raised.

Mark: Now, there is long and honourable tradition in the gay community and it has stood us in good stead for a very long time.

Bromley looks away.

Mark: When someone calls you a name -

Mark looks over at Jonathan and says, “Am I right about this Jonathan?”

Jonathan: Dead right.

Mark: You take it and you own it.
