Actress Cynthia Nixon has been routinely described as trying to become the state’s first lesbian governor.

But Nixon actually doesn't self-identify as a lesbian. She considers herself queer, campaign spokeswoman Lauren Hitt said.

Queer - one of the Qs in the LGBTQ movement, along with questioning—encompasses people who don't necessarily feel they fall under any specific label.

Queer for decades had been used as a derisive term to attack nonheterosexuals. But in recent years, the term has been reclaimed by some - especially younger people - in the LGBTQ community.

Hitt declined to discuss the reasons why Nixon identifies as a queer rather than a lesbian or bisexual.

"It’s personal," Hitt said.

Nixon is married to Christine Marinoni, with whom she has a child. Nixon also has two kids from a previous relationship with Danny Mozes, a male.

If she insists that she’s weird (queer), she probably is.

The Democrat Party has become the party of freaks. The Democrat Party represents the kind of people who participated in side shows of the past except for one thing. The old side show folks weren’t unanimously obsessed with being mean.

Gotta feel sorry for the kids. They will never know 'normal.'

Exactly——consider the transgender running for governor in Vermont.

She’s queer, but the one on her right is definitely LESBIAN

She considers herself queer, campaign spokeswoman Lauren Hitt said.

Not only queer, but mighty strange, peculiar, odd, weird, bizarre, abnormal and outlandish.

Thanks to power thesarus for the synonyms.

“Isn’t that like the N-word? If I use the N-word, I’m a racist and a bigot.”

It looks like q is the new n.

But I'm guessing only Ls and Bs can use q and n, if you get my m.

Personally, I like BLTs with mayonnaise.

Back in the 80’s it was Andy Cuomo who came up with “Vote for Cuomo, not the homo.”
Now if only it could be linked to him again.... it would be hilarious to watch the left eat him alive.

He husband looks like Danny Bonaduce.

Cynthia the Q likes to eat fat blubber.

[funfan]

Yuck. Our society has fallen so low it is embarrassing.

Sounds a little Bi to me.

[Dave911]

Always thought she was a little odd.

I’m pretty sure some of those letters are a professional wrestling league. ;-)

a true frunt hole...

One of the tykes in her first brood has already come out as a tranny and is up for (or has recently received) the necessary surgery.

[hal ogen]

I think “mentally ill” fits best.

[Carriage Hill]

She’s more subhuman filth, than queer.

[BlueLancer]

Cynthia is pigeon-holing herself.

Heh heh .. you said "hole" ...
