The Week in Gay

Enough to make your head spin:

Is Gay: Whoever heard of a British pro basketball player? John Amaechi played for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Utah Jazz, Orlando Magic and the New York Nicks. He came out after he retired, and has written a book, “Man in the Middle.”

Is Not Gay: If Rene Zellweger hadn’t married him and then divorced him practically the next day on grounds of “fraud,” I would have no clue who Kenny Chesney is. I have still never heard him sing (and have no desire to) but I will say that just looking at his photo, well, sorry dude, but you look gay. My gaydar has been wrong before and he insists on “60 Minutes” this Sunday that he is not.

Protests Too Much: One of Amaechi’s former colleages, Tim Hardaway, made the kind of statement that always makes me suspicious: “I hate gay people. I let it be known, I don’t like gay people. I don’t like to be around gay people.” My experience is, guys who are secure in their sexuality just don’t think about homos very much, if at all. Anyway, Hardaway has apologized. Next step, rehab, probably.

Gay President: A Gallup poll from last week found that 55 percent of Americans would vote for gay person for president, while 43 percent would not. By comparison, 95 percent said they would vote for a Catholic (4 percent would not); 94 percent said they would vote for a black candidate (5 percent would not) and 67 percent said they would vote someone who was married for a third time (like Giuliani) and 30 percent would not.

  2. Kenny Chesney (not) gay?! That’s not a suprise. I’ve known for years he was (not) gay. I mean, like you said just look at his photo it’s clear. That’s one hetero looking dude.
