Who is gay on the L word?

Next question
Katherine Moennig - The L Word
Because she has played androgenous characters throughout her career, most people assume that Kate Moennig is gay. However, an interview in 2000 with The New York Observer stated:

"Although she is straight and is currently seeing a Los Angeles actor 'who knows what he wants,' Ms. Moennig recalled a number of instances when, because of her appearance, she was 'probably' hit on by women, who either mistook her for a boy or for a lesbian."

Don't give up yet, it gets better.

She may have been outed by Jennifer Beals, in an interview with
The Advocate:

Interviewer: "Do people still assume that you have to be a lesbian to play one on TV?"

Jennifer Beals: "Not at all... I heard a rumor that somebody... assumed I was bisexual. Which was a huge compliment to me, because often I will go to... Kate or [others not mentioned here because this is a quiz] most often and ask, 'OK, is this the right thing to do? Is this not the right thing to do? Am I going to seem like a total chump if I do this?"

Katherine Moennig was also interviewed by The Advocate about her sexual orientation, and she said, "We [actors] want to keep that personal life sacred, because that's what's most important at the end of the day."

As reported by
The New York Post in April 2005, she was supposedly spotted "canoodling" with Francesca Gregorini (Ringo Starr's stepdaughter) at Paper magazine's "Beautiful People" issue party at L.A.'s Roosevelt Hotel.

Any which way, Ms. Moennig is as enigmatic as her character Shane, which at the moment puts her in the gray area.

This is a toughy and should make for good discussion.
While you're at it, take the quiz.

I think that Kate is gay.
my reasons being:
I believe that it is kinda hard to fake that charm and chemistry she has between all the women on the show.
She is very androgenous, but also very gorgeous.
so..yeah.
I said my peace.


XOXO
