Is Barry Manilow gay?

[yvr girl]

My gaydar isn't very finely tuned.

[Gormy Cuss]

1. I don't know but I did have a mondegreen with one of his songs.

I thought he was singing about "Manny," not "Mandy."

[Monkey see Monkey Do]

2. I need you today, oh Manny

[graywarrior]

3. He makes me wish I were.

[no name no slogan]

And why does he remind me of Dame Edith Evans?

[Random_Australian]

17. ? Did you mean Dame Edna Everich?

That would make a lot of sense.

No? Oh well.

[Floogeldy]

But he does, unfortunately, suffer from chronic vaginitis.

[RevCheesehead]

11. Does it matter?

:shrug:

[Floogeldy]

13. Thank you.

I was waiting for your question. :)

Mr. Manilow's sexual preference(s) is about 8,999,444 on my list of questions.

15. 1 down, 8,999,443 to go.

[Catchawave]

12. Who cares?

I'd do him :hi: That is, if he's willing and able !

[Scout1071]

14. Is there really any chance he's not?

I love Barry. What a showman. I still have a streamer I caught at one of his concerts. But I have to say, it's been pretty well known for decades that he preferred men.

16. May switch teams now and then but, yes, is apparently closer to the

Friend of Dorothy side of the Kinsey scale than are otehr sexually ambiguous pop stars I could name.

And I don't agree with some gay activists who put him down for it because they claim he has a "responsibility" to reveal his gayness (or whateverness) and who label him an evildoer because he hasn't. F***ers. His private life should be able to remain private, as long as he's not hurting anybody, and the same's true for any other person -- they shouldn't have to give up their privacy because they got famous. Leave the dude alone.

Next they'll be saying the same thing about Liberace...

[TheBaldyMan]

18. I don't know but his boyfriend is definately bi

:D
