The Claymates Speak!
First of all, thanks to those of you who directed me to this Claymates forum where there's hundreds of messages regarding their idol's big coming out party on the cover of People Magazine. It's nice to see that 98% of them are not bothered at all and will continue to worship at his big gay feet. The other 2% are shocked, confused and hurt, because they felt they were lied to. A couple of them are still waiting for "confirmation," because People Magazine could be telling lies. Hey, whatever gets you through the day.
Here's just a few quotes from Claymates who aren't waving rainbow flags this morning:
"This is a gut wrenching day for The ClayNation. Somebody wake me up, I hope its a dream.""please tell me I'm not the only one who is shocked beyond belief! I feel numb I'm so upset. This can't be real!! How can you guys say this won't change anything? This changes EVERYTHING. I don't even know what to think right now"
"I wish him well and hope he gets some peace of mind now BUT I feel he lied to everyone-especially us fans. He should have just said so years ago. I feel like we were "used". I still love to hear him sing but I also feel he has now become like a Michael Jackson and it's a bit too weird! He isn't just the plain ordinary person with the values he first stood for.-but it's just my opinion."
"One really sad thing for me that sums this up. THis morning at the breakfast table my 9 and 10 year olds were there and the radio was on and they came on with the headline "FOrmer American Idol..." and I knew what was coming and I ran to turn it off. I didn't want my young children to hear that and ask questions about it. To me this is the saddest thing and the reason I won't be able to hold him as my idol. I remember the day when I ran to turn it on and called all the family to watch with pride. It just seems so in your face now and I don't want exposing my kids to this. "
"I just feel rather silly now having spent the last 5 years drooling over and being fan girly for a singer I thought was straight and now finding out he is gay. It does change my perception of who he is and how I see him. We always called him our boyfriend and that won't be happening anymore."
You know, if I walked by a newsstand one day and saw Rojo Caliente on the cover of a magazine with the words "Yes, I'm straight" written on it, I would probably collapse to the ground. I would be devastated. I would feel bamboozled and confused. So I can completely relate to the Claymates whose world has just crumbled into a million gay pieces.

hahah love this one from the clayboard:
"Maybe this is a good time to remember an old saying about 'walking in another's shoes'. (Can't remember the exact quote)."

Mopa - I didn't take offense. Sorry if it came out that way.
What I was trying to put accross is I didn't feel like going into alot of detail, hence my short explaination of who he was.
Didn't take your post as pissy and apologize if mine came off as offensive.
I have a cold and can't breathe today, so maybe I'm a little pissy and not watching how my posts come off.
Sorry.

Texn Doc is a ntional treasure! ha ha ha
No seriously guys, he has had a hard time recovering from third degree burns on his asshole when he was trying to straight iron his butt hairs.

There are a lot of heterosexual women who for some reason or another are afraid of male sexuality and are therefore attracted to men like Clay Aiken because he makes them feel safe.

thank you for saying exactly what I was thinking, but couldn't find a way to say.

I am old, so I remember the whole Harvey Milk incident well. I believe many people don't even know who he was and the fact that he was assasinated is part of why he became such an icon, hence the holiday.
I wasn't directing my comment to you to be pissy, but thought the original poster might want/need to know a big part of the reason for him being such an icon that may contribute to why there might be a holiday named for him.
Not sure why you would take such offense to me sharing this information.

I just watched Victor/Victoria last night with Divas Jr. She's 6. I explained gay people to her. Then I told her the difference between drag queens and transexuals because she was bringing up Isis from America's Next Top Model.
Then she asked me if she could have a cupcake before bed...
These things are not a big deal. They are life.
I hate closeminded people.
You dlisters have your head in the sand! Of course Claymates feel lied to. Don't you know that gays have mind control powers and can shoot pew-pew lasers out of their eyes? They are responsible for everything that is wrong with the world!

Mopa- yes I know that there is alot more to the Harvey Milk story. I just wanted to let KD know who it was. If she wants to wiki him for the entire story, that is her perogative.

Thanks ME. But really. A holliday named after him? In San Fransisco, that isn't really a huge accomplishment or very surprising at all.

Yes, the bill is awaiting approval. It will be a new California Holiday.
Well, there is a little more to the Harvey Milk story...
"On November 27, 1978, Milk and Mayor George Moscone were assassinated by Dan White, another city supervisor who had recently resigned and wanted his job back. Milk has become an icon in the city's history and a historic figure in the gay rights movement."

Yes, a hell of a lot of difference. One's a group with no life but too cool for school in their minds, the others a group with no life wearing hair-curlers in the middle of the day.
Those people are seriously mentally ill.
" I agree, It is 2.57am here, just cant sleep. I have cried, tossed and turned, but have had a feeling about this for a long time, being Christian does make it harder, but I have decided not to judge anyone ever again, and it is Clay that has taught me this, and unconditional love, and I do not even know him. He still has the voice that I adore, and he is the bravest classiest, and the least vulgar person I have ever seen. "
for real? holy shit. that lady needs to get therapy. CRYING? TOSSING/TURNING? UNABLE TO SLEEP? omfg
These have to be the same women who think Sarah Baracud-ass Palin is a rhodes scholar!

He's so gay, his whispers make glitter rainbows.

OMG - how many of "these" people are out there???
My son asked me when he was 6 or 7 "what gay was?" I told him that sometime boys like boys, girls like girls, or they like the opposite sex. That was all he needed for an answer. Trying to avoid discussing things with your kids is stupid and dangerous. Hope these kids have someone to talk too when the subject of drugs come up. Don't be an Ostrich.

Totally agree-btw, kids are already talking about gay straight and backwards by 6 yrs old these days at school anyway. She'd be amazed what her kids would tell her if she talked to them (rather than devoting her life to Gayken and shielding her kids from the concept of gay, etc) My kids are slightly younger than hers and they know that sometimes Tommy wants a husband and that makes him gay. When Lisa wants a wife, she's gay.
***********************************
For reals. My kid went to a daycare where there were a number of gay parents. She used to say she wanted to have two mommies and a daddy like her friend. Of course - she knew the two mommies lived together and that daddy had a boyfriend. Obviously, we didn't talk about "gay" back then but it was hardly disturbing for her. (except, of course, that she didn't have such a cool arrangement for herself!) But you know - kids are not sexual. Most of that stuff doesn't concern them...we don't talk about whether Mommy and Daddy like it missionary or doggy, why would we begin to talk about sexual preference at all?

What a bunch of fuckin assholes. These head up their asses afraid of reality stupid fucks embody EVERYTHING that is fucked in American society. How fuckin narrow minded and idiotic can people be? I am not even a fan of Clay but he always seems nice in interviews. These people need to get a fuckin grip. And I hope the lady who turned off the radio so her kids don't hear has 5 gay kids. And I hope they are all FLAMING. These ass hats act like you can 'catch gay' like its the fuckin flu.
