Ron Cowen Quotes
«[Showtime agreed, and Cowen and Lipman took full advantage of that carnal carte blanche from the beginning: In Episode1, Brian's deflowering of Justin is explicitly rendered.] We felt that was a very political statement, ... because as a gay person, I grew up seeing straight people in movies, in R-rated movies, making out, having sex, but I never saw gay people doing it.

It will mark a certain point in time. I hope as time goes on it will be seen as accurate.»

«It (the sex scenes) was not for shock value. I think it was to tell the truth. I think a lot of what we see on TV portrays gay people as eunuchs or clowns, or as victims of AIDS, or being punished for being sexual or tortured teens. We're not doing any of that.»
