Was he a man pretending to be a woman? That's the chain of command these days.

Do you mean as played by Julie Andrews in Victor/Victoria? This is a delightful musical comedy which was released in 1982 about a woman pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman. The '80s were so much fun as compared to the seriousness of 2024. Previously in 1959 there was the great and hilarious film 'Some Like It Hot' with Marilyn Monroe, Jack Lemon, and Tony Curtis. People used to be able to laugh about these situations. These days everything is such a downer.






Joe E. Brown as Osgood Fielding III says, "Nobody's perfect" in this famous final line of dialog from 'Some like it hot'.

Would be of no great surprise if it was yet another fucked up nut job.

I doubt puberty blockers were involved in those "gay" times. Nobody thought that were real men anymore than people thought Tootsie or Mrs. Doubtfire were women.

Nobody had a real problem with the queer movement. The admission of what it was right in the name. If you were aberrant you went to the big city.

 It's when you try and normalize it and teach in schools that the freaks were put on notice. I blame women. They will allow anything that appeals to emotion to the detriment of everyone.

I hope this isn't true.  After retiring, he apparently took a job with this company for $500k a year and 100,000 shares of stock.  At a minimum, he's an idiot.
