Mayor respect for her!
I have a lot of respect for everyone who comes out but being out in the public eye is extra respectworthy.

Hopefuly some day sexual orientation will be amongst the standard list-o-facts like age, gender, city of birth and favorite color, having equal importance and concequences with those other facts.

but until then; respect to all those who are out and proud :

I always confuse her with Lena Heady haha

Congrats to her though!!!! Just looking at her IMBD I didn't know that was her in The L Word! Whoa. She was in one of my favorite movies, Made In Heaven

I have no gaydar.

[Ben Varkentine]

That's OK, I think I have some.

:sheep

I have no gaydar.

Usually I don't hve one either, but I remembered seeing her on the Lword and thinking "that was perfect casting, even that's a thing the smallest gaydar in the world can detect without her being a total bulldyke"
Cause in that role it was important to get the whole "ok, gaydar worked, now threathen to out her" thing for the storyline to be convincing an all.

coiming out is a relly thing to deal eith... and being public person is even harder... congratz to her!

(btw, older women aren´t my thing, but her eyes...)
