Founding Mattachine Society?

This article says Kameny founded the Mattachine Society with Jack Nichols, making no mention of Harry Hay. But the Mattachine Society article says it was founded by "Harry Hay with a small group of friends". Which is right? Dybryd 01:05, 11 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The 'Mattachine Society of Washington' is not the same as the 'Mattachine Society', see e.g. [1] [2]; Jutta —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.127.157.81 (talk) 04:57, 25 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You also make no mention of Barbara Gittings or Kay Layhusen who were also co-founders. Jack Nichols was a close personal friend of mine and he would have wanted them mentioned as well. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.202.143.228 (talk) 19:27, 7 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Bestiality" claim

I've removed a claim that as of 2008 Kameny supports bestiality; the claim, which has gained some currency on right-wing websites, appears to be based on a single claim of an organization having received an e-mail from him. Until there is a reliable news source (as opposed to an editorial clearly based on the organization's claims), the statement has no place in the article.

I completely can't understand why this quotation was removed. Why are you denying this reliable source? In mail to AFTAH he clearly approoved bestiality.

Here's another free image that can be added (once the article is expanded). APK coffee talk 13:58, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Parentage

I'm a genealogy nut. I can't find *anything* out there which names Kameney's parents. Has anyone else seen anything? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.124.166.10 (talk) 11:24, 13 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about the above. I know that I'm too lazy to log in, but normally I at least sign. The only thing that comes remotely close which I have been able to find is https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.2/1Y5K-Q81/p_10390879618. 174.124.166.10 (talk) 11:36, 13 October 2011 (UTC)Pink Muslimah[reply]
