Welcome to Gaia! ::

Nice list (I only just now read over it)

Are there really people who avoid the term "homosexual" for it sounded like a desease? eek
By the way, "gay" is a term of pride as well - you don't need to be gay even though you're attracted to the same sex (i.e. homosexual - just tried to avoid it now as well XD)

As for the famous gay people list: I recently watched a documentation about the Manns and they showed that Klaus Mann (Thomas Mann's son) was (more or less openly) homosexual.

Thank you for providing this list. It is a wonderful reference for facts, and it definitely can provide a lot of substance for arguments we make in a debates.

could you put "Joshua O'Nazareth A.K.A. Jesus christ" and "john, disciple of jesus" in the rumoured/unconfirmed/unconfirmable gays section?
john was "the disciple jesus loved" is depicted as effeminate and joshy-boy "loved" him for a reason. (i reckon he was putting out.)

i learned something in school:
if you don't have sex while married you can religiously be anulled from your vows.
if you try hard enough you can be legally divorced on pretty much any reason.

Update

There's A C.S.I. episode that goes into the lives of transgenders and well... the actual story is horrible but there are a lot of really great stuff said about transgenders and reasoning behind it...

something like its hard to be a three year old, and feeling like you've got the wrong parts.
Like your body is a forgeign country and your stuck without a passport.

somewhere in your development your X and Y chromosomes split apart... girl brain, boy body (or vice, but thats what the episode says...)

I could try to get the transcript of it but other people here might be able to help you more...

Or you could say what i think is pretty interesting that my friends and i have discussed... That in the beginning we were supposed to have both genders, or be able to change your sex at free will... and the inability to is simply a genetic defect...

When I watched Jesus Christ Superstar, the part were Judas kissed Jesus was a...Well, it definitely seemed like a homosexual moment to me. Just saying that about the movie production that was made.

Anne Frank may have been bisexual; somewhere in her diary she writes about the beauty and sexuality of women, and I believe something along the lines of her fantasizing about them. Granted, it's been awhile since I read the full text.

BakaTulip-san: Please add Anthony Rapp (bisexual; refers to himself as "queer") and B.D. Wong (gay) to the list. Thank you.
