In the Feb. 25, 2007, issue of the New York Times Magazine, financial guru Suze Orman revealed that she is a lesbian and has been with her partner, Kathy Travis, for seven years.
During the interview, which covered her latest book, Women and Money, due out at the end of this month, writer Deborah Solomon asked Orman if she is married, and Orman replied initially, “I’m in a relationship with life.”
Solomon then prompted, “Meaning what?” and Orman replied: “K.T. is my life partner. K.T. stands for Kathy Travis. We’re going on seven years. I have never been with a man in my whole life. I’m still a 55-year-old virgin.” full article

Gold star lesbian reminds me of my boyfriends sister in-law. She is a vegan and will not allow any meat in her refrigerator because she says it will contaminate it.
Goldstar Lesbians keep the Vegan food industry afloat.
hostess: Is it a coincidence that fiber floats and the vegan food industry floats?
you are a bigot
hostess: you spelled bigot right, I’ll give you that-but I think you missed the point of the post. Oh well, you’ll never read any other posts on this site, so what do I care…
Bigoted about what exactly?!
The 55 year old virgin comment is so reactionary. Must we really reproduce the ridiculous notion that men are necessary for “real” sex? I’ve never fucked a man either but I’m no virgin.

Suzie has so much contact with the world of straight people, her humor is subconsciously based on their reality — hence, from their perspective, she is still a virgin, never had sexual intercourse, which in straight parlance of course means penis penetration.
This world would be a better place if humanity was homosexual. And yes there will kids alots of em too. But then again we had to be labelled sinners to fulfil the bible.
who cares if she is with a man or a women.Or has never been with a man for that matter.She knows money and that’s what matters.Thats y u read her books not to find out who she’s sleeping with get over it people.If u worried half as much about your finances as u did about someone else sex life u would be so much richer.

Surely she enjoys a strap-on w/ her partner? Or a didlo in her precious personal time alone with life?
Only a man would assume a woman would “surely” enjoy sex with something penis-like. If you’re sleeping with women, you ought to get some advice from your goldstar lesbian friends.
