Cheerleaders Having Lesbian Sex? Now Thats News!

Close up lovely happy lesbian couple

There are several important issues at stake for gays and lesbians in America this week, as churches continue to defrock or penalize gay and lesbian clergy, the Supreme Court rules on whether transgender employees can make discrimination claims, and voters in several states decide whether to grant or deny gays and lesbians basic civil rights. But who cares about all that boring stuff, when there's real news happening? I'm referring, of course, to the news the mainstream media can't seem to get enough of: the NFL cheerleaders busted this weekend for having lesbian sex. Technically, the two Carolina Panther cheerleaders--Renee Thomas, 20, of Pittsboro, N.C., and Angela Keathley, 26, of Belmont, N.C.--were arrested last weekend not for allegedly having sex with each other, but for doing it in a bathroom stall at a bar, then punching one of several complaining patrons waiting to use the restroom, and resisting arrest for disorderly conduct and assault. All while very, very drunk.
