Gawker
The Daily Mail explains, as if it's 1984, that even though the Sex and the City actress and her girlfriend look totally different, they still support each other. They even do things (dinner and the theater) that heterosexual couples do. They cannot stay away from quoting various descriptors of Christine Marinoni: "a great big lesbian in a lumberjack shirt" who is "short and dumpy" and "makes a point of being as unladylike as possible." Hey, Brits: we call ladies like that butch, and she could kick your ass. It's suggested that Nixon is keeping her life with her lesbian partner "discreet" as she promotes the most heterosexual movie of all time. [Daily Mail]

I thought I saw a close-up picture of her (the partner) the other day where she was rather attractive. This picture makes her look positively mannish. WTF?
Why is she wearing one of Felix Unger's shirts?
Where's my ten foot pole at?
love that skirt, cyn
Well that's just south of unbelievable. People who don't look exactly alike can be attracted to one another? What next, federally funded stem cell research?
sheila, you are really on fire today.
maybe you're always like this and i'm just too busy to appreciate.
@puritanicalish: naw, i'm just in a bad mood. It really shows up in my posts! hah.
@DorothyMantooth: I think you're talking about that picture of Cynthia Nixon with Chris Noth, who is rather attractive and feminine, compared to Christine.
The Daily Mail also says Time Out New York captures NYC's "Zeitgeist" in its anti-SATC sentiment this week [tinyurl.com] and can't get enough of dem Yankee dykes... [tinyurl.com]
Most women in England have short hair and wear no makeup,they mostly look like big ol' dykes.
Is that Prince Harry?
Marioni looks like a hotter Prince Harry.
BTW: The Daily Mail is tripe.
I read the whole Daily Mail article. It was rather lengthy, so here, let me synopsize it for everybody:
"Dykedy dyke dyke DYKE! Fat HAIRY dyke! Obese lezbo muffin munchy munch munch munch! Unsightly Large Marge! Carrottop-esque red pubes, surely! Fat bull dykey carpet muncher, NOOOOOO!!! Uggo-fuggo in manwear! My eyes! My eyes! Crikey!"
@ginger rant: Crikey? Was it the Melbourne edition of TDM?
I think it's the recent strength of the Euro, Sheila, that's allowing them Brits to grow big enough equipment to think they can pick on our big ol' dykes. Antidote: tease them about the Falklands.
@In Other News...: No, they're Las Malvinas. Heh heh heh.
@MrInBetween: It's what they say when they get irrational.
@ginger rant: You don't gingerly rant, do ya Ginger Rant?
@SarahHeartburn: Oh yeah! DID YOU HEAR THAT, PM BROWN?
Why not just date a man? I mean, whats the appeal there? If you like women, cool... then go out with a woman. Not Rick Astley with a vagina.
@Buzz Killington: Men don't have vaginas, I think.
@Buzz Killington: ??
@Buzz Killington: Buzz you are a jerk
@Buzz Killington: Why do you keep doing this? Breast pumps are not gross. Butch lesbians are not men.
@ginger rant: Given that it is The Daily Hate Mail (as my friends in Leeds call it), I'm kind of surprised that's not a verbatim quote.
@adropp: @Bell County: And also not interesting.
Given the ruling today in CA, I am feeling gaygaygay.
Buzz and Ginger suck it.
Geez, I would certainly hate to meet that guy in a dark alley.
@Buzz Killington:
Not nice knowin' ya, Buzz.
@Buzz Killington: I like penises, but not on men.
@htotheomo: I'm pretty sure Ginger was mocking the Daily Mail article / writer.
@Buzz Killington: Please tell me you are joking.
@In Other News...: @In Other News...: I was just going to say that! Also, agreed about Ginger.
@Helman: Buzz appears to hate Staten Island and big ol' dykes. They'll be okay without him.
@Unfun: Dearest, great minds think alike. About Virus. :-)
Do you think that the NY Post speaks for your city? How about the Daily News? Newsday?
Well then, allow the rest of us to disclaim that rag. It does not speak for women in London. At least not any women that I know.
I believe The Daily Mail does not have an actual editor and all their articles are written as group projects and taped together. Everything they write is 10 pages long even if it's just about some blurb about Liz Hurley possibly having a bloat day. Nevertheless, I am constantly falling for all their trashy bait as click through which ballers wife has taken comfort in the arms of another Dancing with the Stars partner, who's also married. They scandalize everything!
@ChristieLove: The Post and News claim to, yes. Newsday sticks to Long Island.
@maevemealone: We really don't want your newspapers.
@Buzz Killington: boo!, you suck.
I swear I can almost hear Jack Ketch.
@maevemealone: Liz Hurley Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay,married some gay Indian guy,she's a great beard,did it for Hugh Grant too another English poof.
@maevemealone: So, the Daily Mail is a blog... on paper???
It suddenly dawned on me that Buzz Killington is probably Cynthia Nixon's bitter ex-boyfriend.
Hi Ginger: I am sorry for lumping you in with others. That wasn't my intention.
Take good care,
htotheomo
@Helman: @adropp: @CaptainHangNail: @Bell County: @In Other News...: @DaeSu: @Unfun: ok guys as much as i agree with your "wtf" assessment here, he DID just say the phrase "rick astley with a vagina" which is kind of awesome. i'm debating changing my commenter name to that, quite frankly!
other than that, yeah, what?
I'm a female het, and I prefer my partners to be butch, so I can see where Ms. Nixon is coming from. Go girl!!
@FracturedAcetabulum:
Am I the only one who always reads this as Jack Kvetch?
@miss_msry: no, you are not alone.
Hi, my name is Cynthia, and this is my lover Christi.
@FracturedAcetabulum: Or Sheila!
@DaeSu: Or Donald Trump!
Not even the butchiest of lesbians would want to be called "burly." I don't think...
@Saxon 212: So is she gay too? The Daily Mail also taught
