Talk:Harvey Fierstein
From Muppet Wiki
I don't think it is very "PC" to describe Harvey as "flamboyant". I am sure he would be offended if he saw himself described that way. He's not Rip Taylor.....Vard
- Yeah, "flamboyant" is usually code for gay. I'd actually be happy with saying he's gay, but there's not enough in the article to really support it. Lemme see... -- Danny Toughpigs 00:17, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
- Danny. I'm a friend of his. The proper thing to say, if it's even necessary, is that he's "out". Tricky to use in a sentence, but the right thing....Vard
- ...and "out"" is even in Wikipedia. You can't go wrong!...Vard
- What do you think of the new version? -- Danny Toughpigs 00:38, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
- Perfect & classy. You should probably also mention (to illustrate that he is an actor (and more than a drag act) with his successful run as Tevye in Fildder on the Roof on Broadway. Also he won two Tony Awards (acting & writing) for Torch Song Trilogy and one for writing La Cage aux Folles.....Vard 19:52, February 26, 2006
