When I was a child I asked my mother what homosexuality was about and she said – and this was 100 years ago in Germany and she was very open-minded – Its like hair color. Its nothing. Some people are blond and some people have dark hair. Its not a subject. This was a very healthy attitude. – Karl Lagerfeld
