Justin Timberlake apparently is not. But then, he did leave N'Sync. Maybe he was tired of their sweaty man orgies.

This reminds me of our old boss at one of my previous jobs. We told the women we worked with that he was gay, over and over again. And they always said "But he's married! He has a daughter! He just talks funny."

Our response was always "Oh he's gay. He just hasn't figured it out yet. You just watch."

A year later after he quits that job? He gets a divorce, moves, and announces that he's gay.

It was the same way with one of my sister's ex boyfriends. I told her over and over again that he was gay. It was always in that irritating older-brother way too. I'd always find a way to sneak it into conversations with her.

Two months after they broke up he announced his bisexualness to the world.

As for Lance Bass.. yeah. Who didn't know that back when those annoying little jerks first got popular?

In high school there was a teacher that would literally prance around in pink vests, but everyone said he was straight. He had a wife and three kids. But his wife caught him cheating on her with a man and he hung himself. Now the school has a scholarship in his name.

Thin J's stories are better.

This makes you question the sexuality of a lot of boy band members. I mean, either they're as gay as a fruit basket, or they're just doing it to be surrounded by lots of underage teenagers. All bouncing about hoping to be lucky enough to be covered in a superstars sweat.

This makes me realize I'll be one of those fathers who is always cleaning his gun when prospective dates come to the door.

How? Neither of them pranced around in pink vests.

Of course, my stories lack the depressing "then he hung himself" part.

Is there any other kind of father that you would consider even remotely within the bounds of sanity?

I had an ex tell everyone that I made him gay. My response was that it was the best thing I could have done for the female population of the world. (Bless his heart.)

While on the topic of gay celebrities, may I just take this moment to say that Henry Rollins is not gay. I don't care what any of you say. (People around me spend much time on the Rollins issue, so much so that when I say his name, it is : "Henry- who is not gay, he's pining for me- Rollins".

But Tony Stewart? I think Tony is gay, and having a long term affair with Zippy, his crew chief. This doesn't stop me from lurving him like only a girl who builds her own engines can love a fast fat man.
