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
