She did a lot of good.

God Bless and receive the soul of Sally Ride.

Come on people! Didn’t you all know she was a lesbian? Captain Obvious! Even when I was a little kid - everyone knew in school knew- like Jodi Foster, Ellen, Ricky Martin, Barry Manilow, or Hillary! Duh. Freepers are supposed to be good at picking these things out.

And, after a month...we’re stuck at 30%

Gadzooks! Then she must have... had a great embouchure!

Who cares?

The only thing I care about is me.

Who is me?

I'm a lesbian locked in a male's body.

Sometimes it's rough being me.

I am second bass in my choir. First bass is gay and black.
He has both an innately better voice than mine and is better
schooled. If he should pass before me I will not remember
him as the gay black guy who sang bass. I will remember him
as one of he finest voices I have known.

Here is a woman who kept her sexuality private and did not go parading around in Gay Pride Parades and wasn’t a gay activist. She was an accomplished woman who happened to be gay and remained private about it. Yet for some posters on this board, she still was a sick pervert who was in a dangerous position to turn our kids queer. I strongly disagree. By that logic, gay people should be banished to some remote area whether or not they keep their sexuality to themselves. That isn’t fair to anyone. And I am against gay marriage, against “gay rights” and in no way, shape or form a supporter of the gay agenda.

I didn’t know anything about her sex life or anything until yesterday, and I really did not care to know. I assume NASA knew all about her personal life and let it go. I also assume that she did not publicize her proclivities because her causes would be harmed if she did.

Valentina Tereshkova was the first woman in space, back in the mid-1960s.
