Photos and home movies reveal [Karl] Lagerfeld [fashion designer], raised by an opinionated yet free-thinking mother in Germany, as a precocious, demanding child who knew his life's vocation by six and his sexual leanings by 12. Dismissive of both the drive for gay marriage and media mongering about pedophilia, Lagerfeld considers sexual preference to be no more complicated than hair color or fashion sense. Describing himself as unsuited for conjugal relations, he wishes that gay people would return to their old proclivity for outraging bourgeois social norms, rather than aping what he feels are outmoded institutions like marriage.
