Tom of Finland

On Monday, July 17, 2017 I went to see the movie Tom of Finland at the Fantasia festival.

The movie is about the artist, Tom (of Finland) who was the father of modern gay erotic drawings.

The movie was well done, the story was well written, the acting was great.  It was nice to learn more about that history.

However, I do not really feel that as a visible minority in the gay community or in the leather community, I was represented in that movie.  And I believe that this continues to be a problem in the community now, even though it's been many years.  There is still lots of work to be done.
