Monique Wittig said this quote

A text by a minority writer is effective only if it succeeds in making the minority point of view universal. ('The Universal and the Particular') ... In claiming the lesbian point of view as universal, she overturns the concepts to which we are accustomed. For up to this point, minority writers had to add the universal to their points of view if they wished to attain the unquestioned universality of the dominant class. Gay men, for example, have always defined themselves as a minority and never questioned, despite their transgression, the dominant choice. This is why gay culture has always had a fairly wide audience. [From the Foreword Changing the Point of View by Louise Turcotte]
