(4,451 posts)I actually answered that without reading the story, so that was my answer.
The site is not reputable, and they identify Graham as North Carolina's senator.

Not that I disagree with the supposition that Graham is gay.

(21,090 posts)The article itself says,
"Speculation has run rampant that Lady G is non-other than North Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham. "
The tweet it quotes from Betty Bowers includes what you identified.
I never gossip. Except to save a soul. Or a conversation. So I ask only this out of Christian concern: It is a newly monochromatically blond senator from a state south of North Carolina?

Hypocritical gay Republicans need to be outed but there better be proof.

(60,010 posts)And Lindsey has a right to keep his sex life private as long as he is not being a hypocrite about the rights of gays, etc.
Having said that, I remain convinced that the lil golf game talk with trump involved the words."....we have the tapes"
Doodley
(9,033 posts)"a race-baiting bigot," then like some kind of Manchurian Candidate, he denied he ever said that and supported Trump, even when Trump insulted his best friend, John McCain. Why? Has he been blackmailed? Perhaps by the Russians. In this instance, if true, we need to know why, irrespective of any hypocrisy to do with gay rights legislation and irrespective of protecting his privacy. If it transpires he has been blackmailed, then we need to look at Trump again.

smirkymonkey
(63,221 posts)And the problem is not that they are gay. The problem is their hypocrisy and the fact that they actively work to suppress the rights of LGBT people while enjoying the freedom of a gay lifestyle themselves.
It also makes them highly susceptible to blackmail due to the risk of being exposed. They can't be trusted to do the right thing once they are so compromised. This goes for any politician who is covering up any kind of illegal or illicit behavior. Which is basically the entire republican party.

(5,307 posts)I mean, maybe it's just me.... but I enjoy sex when my partner actually enjoys me, too. How can you get that feeling from somebody who's doing it for money?
So, Lindsey, are you really that hideous that you have to PAY somebody to fuck you?
I cant imagine what pleasure could be derived from sex with a disinterested stranger. Just buy a rubber doll.

The first two would be a stretch for the "G" nickname at least based on "G" relating to their names.

(15,512 posts)Why would a "gay porn star" suddenly start tweeting dirt on a US senator? Unless there is a very good reason, he wouldn't.

(15,512 posts)Less than zero would be my guess. Graham will win his primary on June 9 and may or may not win his reelection race, but this silly business won't be a factor in November any more than Tara Reade will be.

(108,951 posts)do produce them, I think that could be a game changer.
But it's all speculation at this point.
ucrdem
(15,512 posts)How are there "gay porn stars" in the age of internet porn anyway? And what kind of call boy would commit suicide by outing a powerful client unless there was big money or shady intel behind it? And who exactly draws up and maintains these "NDAs" for Senator Graham? The whole thing is preposterous. I didn't believe Tara Reade and I don't believe this clown either.

(2,190 posts)But isn't it already an open secret that he's gay? I've been thinking that it's something horrible.
Bigredhunk
(1,347 posts)People say it's an open secret (i.e. would this REALLY be that big of a deal if it was outed?)... But the problem would be getting elected/re-elected in that party as a gay wo(man). They'd probably be done in rep politics if outed. It was like how everybody knew Aaron Schock was gay when he was in office but he wasn't outed or didn't come out until after he got out of office.
I remember reading a blind item somewhere (CDAN?) around the time of the '16 elections. It was about an exclusive gay male escort meeting with an r politician (pol) in FL. This is going off memory but given that it was FL it may've been happened around the time of the previous rep convention in '12.
Basically it was - The escort showed up. The pol opened the door in a bathrobe. The escort went to touch or hug the pol, and the pol didn't like being touched. Pol wanted to sit on the bed and watch the escort pleasure himself.
I remember the escort being shocked at either: A) Seeing who the pol was when the door opened, or, B) Being shocked when he saw the pol on TV in the spotlight in 2016 (the escort didn't follow politics, so he wouldn't have really known the guy until he saw him on TV). I think it was B.
Many of the guessers though it was veep.
Just found it in seconds with a Google search. Here it is:

(9,988 posts)huh, wonder what Lady Gaga did now?
The reality was SO MUCH better.
I think outing is bad when it comes to harmless closeted celebrities just doing their thing. But when someone is in a position of power and actively harming the LGBTQ community every single day by their politics? OUT HIM. Leak the pics. You don't get to enjoy gay sex on the down-low while smearing the people in public.

(8,656 posts)Regardless of which, the mere accusation of gayness will have the GOP in SC running for the doors. There have been rumors known for years, it was just never talked about but if its in the public arena, he'll be dropped like a stone in no time.
