Whitney "took to drugs and drinks because she was hiding her true sexuality"

39. What's tacky is that someone who has no right to do so, is speaking for her. She

laughed at the fact that people were claiming she was gay, and not because THAT was tacky, but because incredibly, she as the strong woman she was, knew who she was. The implication here from this creep is that being Gay is tacky, otherwise why would he even talk about it?

From all I know of her, IF she was gay, she would have lived her life as she pleased. She stated over and over again that she was madly in love with her husband. And he stayed with her for seventeen years which I doubt he would have done had she been Gay. He is remarried and was I believe, either married or living with someone with whom he had children, before he married Whitney.

What I find really tacky is people who have zero way of knowing something, speaking for other people with such authority. Especially when, #1 that person has died and cannot speak for themselves, and #2, that person has already spoken for themselves. What a way to disrespect her, especially now.

From what I know of her, she was more than willing to go against her 'community' as she did when she married and stayed with her husband. Nor am I aware of her ever saying or doing anything to indicate that she shared the anti-Gay bigotry so prevalent in this society.

She basically gave up her career to try to make her marriage work, stating many times, when asked why she did it, that her marriage was far more important to her than her career.

Edited to add, I think people ought to respect her words, not the words of someone obviously trying to get attention for himself. I doubt most of her fans would have cared anyhow, and I do not understand why her private life is anyone's business.
