I did make a mistake..I said 70s...I meant 60s.
Yes, I would not be at all surprised if Obumbo is gay...more likely Bi.
I have to say yes but they were still in the closet. It wasn't until I entered the Army in 1969 did I realize the prevalence of homos, I was stationed in Panama with a few.
As a side note, I grew up in northern Michigan and during the summer of 1966 when I was only 15, there was a guy who I'm thinking was in his late 30's, maybe early 40's who worked for my uncle in my uncle's little movie theater in town.
for some reason (unknown at the time) the guy befriended me and on Friday and Saturday nights after the show ended, he would let me drive his car on the country roads which was really cool at the time since I didn't have a license.
When my parents finally found out about it, they put an end to that! By the end of the summer I then moved to Detroit to complete my junior and senior year of high school.
Thinking back on this, the guy was actually really creepy looking and acting and his interest in me was clearly unnatural. I've since come to the realization that I narrowly escaped a homosexual pedophile.........
