Miss Stefani Germanotta or better known as Lady Gaga, bore her soul by admitting that she has both male and female...ah...plumbing. I believe the politically correct term for this would be a hermaphrodite. She has freely admitted that she is "not ashamed" about havin' a "poon and a peener." By no means am I sayin' that she should hold down her head in shame about bein' different. Yet on the flip side, I don't feel as though it was necessary for her to put her private affairs on blast.
I am a firm believer that some issues should be kept quiet and taken to the grave. Why did she feel like this was something she HAD to reveal? Does she have no decency and pride? I really felt like this was some information that I didn't NEED or WANT to know. In my eyes, I don't see her as some radical pioneer for the rights of hermaphrodites all across the land. I don't admire her for her honesty. I don't look up to her for her boldness. Just because she's in the public eye, doesn't mean all her private info needs to be shared with the whole world.
She calls herself "Lady"? I think some people use this term a bit too loosely.
See, the thing is she didn't just come outta nowhere and make this confession.. this is something she'd been trying to conceal her whole career.
But of course, she has childhood friends, family members, and people who have known about her "condition" long before she was famous. So it was only a matter of time before rumors got out and she started being questioned about it.
And sure enough, questions starting coming in, and rather than denying it, she embraced her "difference" and for that, i tip my hat. Unlike all these other celebs who claim to be perfect and deny their slightest flaw to the public, Lady Gaga is keepin it real and lettin us know what it is. So at least there's no surprises if something DOES pop out.. Haha
Nice post though! :)
