SAN FRANCISCO, May 13 Sheila Kuehl has done a few things that someday may merit mention in the history books: more than a decade in the California Legislature, a public crusade against domestic violence and a stint as the tenacious busybody Zelda on the classic sitcom "The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis."
But if such immortality were to happen, Ms. Kuehl says, she would want one fact listed with the rest of her accomplishments: she is gay.
So this year, Ms. Kuehl, a state senator representing western Los Angeles, introduced a bill to assure that lesbians and gay men get what she feels is their due in California textbooks. The bill, which passed the Senate on Thursday and is now headed to the Assembly, would forbid the teaching of any material that "reflects adversely on persons due to sexual orientation," and add the "age appropriate study of the role and contributions of people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender."

1. Never heard of her or her show before. Is she really a star?
2. Is she the hot kind of lesbian or the manly kind?

Is she the hot kind of lesbian or the manly kind?
We report... you decide.

The years gave not been kind to her. ;-)

eEgAh.
She's the WORST kind.
I just googled her.. she looks like the kind where boners go to die.
The manly kind.
The sitcom she was part of ended, I guess, around 1961 - that might be a clue as to the answer to question #2.
1. The show was popular in the 1950s (before my time, even) and starred Bob Denver who later went on to fame as Gilligan.
2. As to your second question . . . hmmmm, should I post the picture and risk being flamed for torturing the FR masses? I think not.
The real miracle is that Dobie's not gay after Zelda got through with him.
I remember her from Dobie Gillis and an episode of the Beverly Hillbillies. A "lipstick lesbian" she is not.
I take it she played a tomboy.
You are obviously a "baby". Dobie Gilles was a great show and anyone that didn't know "Zelda" was gay wasn't paying attention.
My change would, of course, be considered discriminatory and would be characterized as "hate speech".
Is she the hot kind of lesbian or the manly kind?
I'm not sure, but something started smoking in my computer when her picture appeared.
