Alert the media! Kristy has come out as a Lesbian. The secret is now out.

(I woulda been more surprised had she come out as a STRAIGHT woman)  ;D

I remember that.  I thought she came out then as well.  Maybe mentioned something about it but not really saying it? 

Then again, maybe it is just one of those things that just doesn't surprise you, like when Elton came out.

I thought so too. I remember telling my wife years ago how I had a huge crush on her when I
was a kid but she didn't have to worry because Kristy was a lesbian. It didn't change my mind
though, I still have a thing for her.

Well, if you're going to go bringing Michelle Bachmann's husband into it, two can play at that game:


I never thought of her as a lesbian.


I did.  It's been almost a year since the first poll was taken.

http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RnRmj4UOwOQ/TVmN45a9ztI/AAAAAAAABXc/jkMRVLfsDOk/s400/dash+not+a+lesbian.jpg

But it turns out I was wrong, and the proof was mercifully safe-for-work.  This was actually a subject of serious debate between Ms. Magazine and Lauren Faust herself came out in rebuttal.  Quoth the Creator: "She is a tomboy, but nowhere in the show is her sexual orientation ever referenced. As we all know, there are plenty of straight tomboys in the world, and assuming they are lesbians is extremely unfair to both straight and lesbian tomboys."

But again, I ask, what do Marcus Bachmann and Rainbow Dash have to do with Kristy McNichol, unlesREDACTED.

Let's try that again.  Unless they're actively engaged in rampant hypocrisy, the kinks of celebrities (Kristy McNichol), friends and hangers-on of important political leaders (Rainbow Dash), and fictional characters (Marcus Bachmann, Tom Cruise) are none of our business.

Or unless they're somewhat amusing.  (I make no claim to any moral high ground anywhere.)
