I have no problem with his cutting off financial support. It was the article (which now we think is incorrect based on a transcript provided uplink) which stated he no longer talked with his daughter. I found that disgraceful.

He has known she's a lesbian for years and years. But only when she speaks out about it does he cut her off. So he hasn't cut her off because she's a lesbian. Much as the so-called Christians on this thread would like to believe. He's cut her off because of her tactics and outspokenness.

Maya has given confusing statements on when or what her father knew.

MW: Roughly how long has your father known you are gay?

MARCEL-KEYES: He's known since the end of high school. I graduated in 2003, so a couple of years now.

....

MW: Why was there no conflict while you were working on your father's campaign if he knew you were gay?

MARCEL-KEYES: Well, basically, I think my parents have never really accepted that I was queer. They thought it was a phase. As long as I was quiet about it and it was just them who knew, they could kind of try and push me back toward heterosexuality. But when I actually acknowledged it publicly, then it was sort of like "Oh, gosh, we can't be having that around here."

The fact is, we don't really all know the facts. And without the facts, it is presumptuous for us to judge this family one way or the other.

But none of us are entitled to know all the facts. So we can continue the gossip and speculation, or just leave the family to their own business.
