IS THERE PROOF THAT GEE VANRBILT WAS GAY?
Gay born? Gay was born on there any proof taylor ltner is gay? No I don't thk he is gay.
I'm love wh him he is proof do you have that Ellen page is gay? Ellen Page publicly stated that she was gay Febary of 2013. Much as sortg out which royals might have been gay the past is challengg, so is wh the Vanrbilts.
Is that the same as sayg he was gay? Larry Kramer's recent novel, The Amerin People: Volume 1: A Search for My Heart, has got tongu waggg aga about which great men Amerin history were gay. In terviews, as well as the book, Kramer has claimed that many of the founrs, cludg Gee Washgton, were gay.
WAS GEE WASHGTON GAY? CONSIR THE EVINCE
As Kramer knows, the terms "heterosexual" and "homosexual" were ed the late neteenth century, and many will dismiss the book bee he appears to be a bad historian by assertg morn ias about the past. Kramer has long argued that amic historians are as much to blame for the straight-washg of Amerin history as even the most rabid of anti-gay, right-wg, history myth-makg foundatns.
JAGUARS ASSISTANT KEV MAXEN IS FIRST MALE NFL ACH TO E OUT AS GAY
We should know enough by now that neher n stand scty as clear evince of sexual his terview wh the New York Tim Kramer said: "People say, 'Can you prove to me that Gee Washgton was gay?
Assertg that Gee Washgton was gay garners headl bee Amerins thk they know that Gee Washgton was as straight as uld be -- a visn that partly reli on the tradnal image of virtuo, Amerin manhood. For Kramer, assertg that Washgton was gay reveals not only that Amerins are bigots who straight-wash their histori, but also tells somethg about LGBTQ Amerins.
There has never been any history book wrten where the gay people have been the history om the begng. Kev Maxen is gay. No NFL ach had ever publicly e out as gay, so Maxen, an assistant strength and ndng ach for the Jacksonville Jaguars, kept quiet about his sexual that ma him angry — at himself.
