How does she feel about the Iraq War? Hillary Clinton? Darfur? Poverty? Or even What's her favorite color? I think she just likes to define the line between a private and public persona because she's never had the chance to be purely a private citizen since she's been famous pretty much since birth. And yeah it would be nice if she admitted to the public, but really she doesn't own anyone except her family and friends anything.

I don't really understand Alicia's comment. It seems to me that Jodie has more to gain for herself by being closet and that by "abusing" her fame, she is more likely to make political gains that might well benefit the entire community.

I was a Jodiephile back long ago, and of course, as all tomboys, felt an ineffable connection to her in her early movies ("Wow! She seems just like me!"). Parenthood and the closet: not so very compatible for us folks. Thanks for breaking the news. Now I can find my toast and go back to eating breakfast.
