Bill de Blasio’s wife opened up about falling in love with a man after years of identifying as a lesbian and their life as a “very conventional, unconventional couple” in a candid interview released Thursday.

Chirlane McCray, 58, said her relationship with de Blasio was made possible “by putting aside the assumptions I had about the form and package my love would come in.”

The interview, with Essence magazine, comes 34 years after McCray penned a groundbreaking 1979 essay for Essence entitled, “I Am a Lesbian,” about coming out as a gay black woman.

A dozen years later, in 1991, McCray met de Blasio while she worked for the New York Commission on Human Rights and he was an aide to then-Mayor David Dinkins.

I’m surprised she doesn’t get more hatred from the gay community. I’ve seen people who do nothing more than decide they are “bi-sexual” instead of gay get viciously attacked on the various social networks. And “ex-gay” is like the kiss of death for teenagers — sometimes literally, as the peer pressure and ridicule can drive you to suicide.

It is probably why so many “transgender” people (people who THINK they should be the other sex than their physical sex) tend to keep going further and further, eventually mutilating their bodies, and yet after that 25% still commit suicide, because it turns out their problem was never their gender, and they still are sad and lonely after the mutilation is complete and they see no hope.

And of course, a therapist can’t suggest that you have a mental problem that could be dealt with, because that would be “hating”. Soon, therapists won’t be able to help people who think they are animals, or have multiple personalities, because we are reaching the point where whatever you feel must be real.

In all seriousness, they probably actually are, being raised in a household with, uh, blended values. Sick, but blended.

I thought we were told that sexual orientation is immutable, like race. I guess it’s different when you’re left-wingers.

Quoting McCray herself: “sexuality, I think, is just a very fluid thing”

I guess that’s why liberals want conversion therapy outlawed. We can’t have people believing this. they might — GASP! — turn straight. Then all this sucking up to the gay lobby will have been for naught.
