She always been such a bright light for gays. Thank you Dolly for your support!

Dolly will never come out. It is ok since she isn't hateful.

I know DL worships Dolly, but on what planet does what was quoted @OP equate to "[telling] Christians to back off?"

by Anonymousreply 10December 2, 2019 11:41 AM

Is she really gay like people sometimes say? Where’s the evidence? Any girlfriends? Where her Robin Crawford?

“I missed having a wedding dress and all that,” Parton said. “I’m being fitted up for that. He’s looking for suits. We’re going to take a bunch of pictures. Might even sell some to the rag mags and take the money and give it to the Imagination Library. That’s my plan.“

'Despite her 5390-year long marriage with Carl Thomas'

Is this satire, a typo, or is she Methuselah?

Unpopular opinion, but I don’t believe either she or Oprah is a lesbian.

by Anonymousreply 18December 2, 2019 12:24 PM

I don't think Oprah is. I don't know enough about Dolly to form an opinion. I'm a gay man and I have a female best friend whom I love very much and she loves me, we are as close as two people can be without being in a romantic relationship and lots of people assume we are. So I can understand people getting the wrong idea about close relationships. At the end of the day, it's no ones business.

by Anonymousreply 19December 2, 2019 12:31 PM

Dolly might not be a lesbian but I do not think she is straight.

by Anonymousreply 20December 2, 2019 12:35 PM

The Nashville insider said it was clear Judy Ogle is gay. If there was any talk of her being in a relationship, I might believe Dolly and her are just good friends.

by Anonymousreply 21December 2, 2019 12:38 PM

No one still thinks Oprah is gay I can’t even imagine her sexually with a woman but Dolly I don’t know..I haven’t seen sufficient evidence or heard enough chatter from people in the know. Where are all the Hollywood insiders on DL with tea on Dolly? There are none.

Regarding sex, Dolly admits to being very proactive about learning all about it. She doesn't mention lesbian sex in this old interview, but I bet she's tried it, at least.

Her sex talk begins at 8:50 of the video.

So, anyway...Love Dolly, and sure she didn’t mean it this way, buuuut....

She makes it sound like it’s only OK to be gay if you’re also fine, creative, and if you meet Dolly’s approval. We don’t owe anybody anything. Good, bad, pretty, ugly, rich, poor, it shouldn’t matter. We shouldn’t feel the need to be useful or entertaining or anything to validate our existence.

R12, thank you for posting that link. I saw the video at the bottom of the page, and Dolly married herself a looker. Mr. Dean was not the only luck person in this marriage. Anyway, love you for all your support of our gay community Dolly!

Btw, R5: why did you post at picture of a chimpanzee?

Me as well r19. Although she and I are not friends anymore, we drifted apart when I left Manhattan for LA. But we were also as close as two people could be without having sex. It happens.

R31 go back to Twitter with your faux outrage and virtue signaling.

by Anonymousreply 34December 2, 2019 3:10 PM

I don't think she's gay no matter what DL has decreed. She's happily married to Carl Dean but I think both have messed around on the side. She has admitted to having an "emotional" affair.

That is because she is not one, R39. She is a Christian talking to other Christians.

Still a noble move on her part. So many rich successful artists still won't side with the gays for fear of losing fan base.

by Anonymousreply 41December 2, 2019 4:23 PM

I'm not sure she's a Christian, or at least not a strict one.

Many years ago, a guy I was dating at the time took me to the house of this old lady who was a psychic to the stars in LA. On her wall were autographed photos of the stars who used her services, like Shirley MacLaine, Dennis Weaver and Dolly Parton. I was surprised that Dolly was one of her customers, but supposedly she used this psychic all the time.

I have a feeling that Dolly's down-home image is mostly an act. With her untraditional marriage, lesbian rumors, tattoos, interest in psychics and difficult personality, I don't think she's the same person in private that she is in public.

by Anonymousreply 42December 2, 2019 4:26 PM

R42 lots of Christians use psychics. Or have you forgotten Nancy Reagan?

by Anonymousreply 43December 2, 2019 4:30 PM

All of Hollywood operates via a combination of Astrology like the kind Nancy Reagan consulted (hence the Hollywood “stat” system of old) and the Chinese Zodiac like the kind you see on restaurant placemats.

by Anonymousreply 44December 2, 2019 4:40 PM

R42 People have a mistaken view of Christians, especially small-town Christians, based on the loud views of preachers and activists, who don't actually reflect the views of the average pew sitter. First of all Dolly comes from Appalachia, which has a rich history of folk religion. While majority Christian, they also believe in psychics, witches, ghosts, etc... and they don't tend to think of those as being in conflict with their Christianity. Because to people like Dolly, and me, being a Christian is a relationship between an individual and God, not an individual and the church and/or clergy. There really isn't anything as a "strict" Christian, the only beliefs that is really required to be a Christian is that Jesus is the Son of God, that he died and was resurrected, and that through him we can be saved. Any Christian who acts legalistic, is NOT practicing Christianity, anyone who reads the Gospels would quickly understand that Jesus was AGAINST the legalistic religious leaders and that he hungout with and was a friend to the sinners and outcasts. Dolly is much more a Christian than Pat Robertson.

I will believe Dolly is asexual before I believe she is straight.

by Anonymousreply 46December 2, 2019 5:14 PM

I really do think Dolly is referring partly to herself in the original quote just like she is partly referring to herself here:

“I didn’t know any gay people in my childhood. I do have a lot of gays in my family now, but some will never come out,” the singer, who was one of 12 children in a Pentecostal family living in Locust Ridge, Tenn., told Britain’s Event magazine, per an article featured on the Daily Mail’s website.

I don't think she's that religious but she knows her audience and they demand some religious talk and songs.

by Anonymousreply 48December 2, 2019 5:38 PM

R48 I think you are wrong, she is very spiritual. But, like I mentioned above in R45, her religion is much more a personal relationship between her and God. Her position is clearly epitomized by Dollywood, a themepark that is totally open and welcoming to everyone, including LGBTs, yet is also home to the Southern Gospel Hall of Fame, a chapel where services are actually held, and a yearly Gospel music festival. She is a grand-daughter of a preacher, and she has taken the faith preached by grandfather to it's logical conclusion. All are sinners, all sin is equal, all can be saved(Whosoever Will May Come). And, salvation isn't about any actions, but upon your personal relationship with the Savior. Sin is more about anything that separates one from God, than clear cut rules, therefore what is sin for one person might not be a sin for another. For instance, alcohol might be a sin for an alcoholic but not for a non-alcoholic. It isn't about creeds or rules.
