I married him for a green card. We had a really great, caring relationship; it just obviously wasn't right for me.
My sexuality is a part of me that I really like. But it's not the totality of me.
It sounds so trite, but my private life is mine.
In high school I had sex with girls quite a few times. They were straight women who I convinced to jump in the sack with me.
When I watched Ellen come out in '97, my jaw was on the floor. I thought, There are some people who break the doors down, hold them open, and some people who walk right through.
My feelings for Ellen overrode all of my fear about being out as a lesbian. I had to be with her, and I just figured I'd deal with the other stuff later.
