"I'm single and available. If I
had a personal life, I'd have a sexual orientation."
—Gore 2000 Campaign Manager
Donna Brazile, December
"Gays in the military, I find
absurd. I came from a time when
people were being killed by our
government in a war in Vietnam.
My cousins and school friends
came back in pieces in body bags."
—Novelist Felice Picano, December

"Talk about a motivator. I had
gotten in the best shape of my life.
We should all have to be naked on
"This is the hardest thing I
have ever had to do, but I
owe it to our fans, as well
as to myself, to be completely honest. I know this
may come as a bombshell to

anymore."
—Recording artist Angela Motter, April

extremely outspoken and much more
modern than the other women—
that sounds familiar, doesn't it?"
—Lily Tomlin on "Georgie," the lesbian
character she plays in "Tea with
Mussolini," May
"There are actually women out
there who are shaped like Barbie,
but they're not real women. There
are drag queens who do a good

—Houston City Councilwoman Annise
Parker, February
"My gay fans have been so
loyal, and so great—at times-
when other fans weren't there.
Gay fans usually love you when
