BREAKING: Oprah not a lesbian
Thanks, Barbara Walters and ABC News for getting to the bottom of this.

For 25 years, Oprah Winfrey has dazzled television audiences with her bold personality and candor, sharing her struggle with her weight, surviving sexual abuse as a child and letting her fans in on her personal relationships, including her close friendship with Gayle King.

Contributed to lighten the air a little because despair and desire are both hard to sustain. :-)

6. Nobody knows if Oprah is a lesbian or not except Oprah.
And just because she says it doesn't make it so.

13. The abcnews.com homepage is full of funny "news" items.
There's something about their program "Desperate Housewives" being used to fight Islamic extremism.


ABC News is not even trying anymore.

11. Fools.
Rumors about sexual preference are supposed to be swirling around Stedman, not Oprah. :sarcasm:

15. I like her comments in this article about having (not having) children.
She didn't feel compelled to have kids just because our society still thinks everyone "should," just like she didn't feel compelled to get married. It's not right for everyone, and I applaud those who see that clearly, realize their course in life is not structured to provide well for children, and do their own thing proudly.

On-topic, if she were a lesbian, I think she would have no problem saying so.

17. Businesses can't plan with all the uncertainty in the country...
Thanks to Oprah's confession, they can move ahead. ;-)

Boo.
