Many years after she died, Eric Roberts, who she once dated, outed her as bisexual. I'm not sure why he thought it was a good idea to make that information public if she didn't want it known.
shareQuotes from an interview with Sandy in the Hollywood Lesbians book by Boze Hadleigh....
BH: Violet Pretty? Amazing. Were you at all attracted to her, for real?
SD: Yes! I'm not going to lie....now. I've been asked that. They asked Susan Sarandon, and she said it was wonderful doing a love scene with Catherine Deneuve.
BH: I remember. She even said it in Cosmopolitan. No actor can admit that about another male actor.
It doesn't mean she's a lesbian though. Girls say that someone they known is attractive all the time. She's right that no male actor would say it about another male actor.
shareAnd heterosexual women will often pretend to have fantasies about other women to please men.
And yes, men still can't say that about other men.
It's really about objectification of women.
I don't know. I think it's become more acceptable for straight men to compliment another mans looks. I'm straight and I've done it, even here on these boards. It might not be to the extent that women do it to other women, but that's true about a lot of things.
shareI've complimented a straight man on his looks too. I won't call them hot though.
shareAnd now you just did for anyone who never saw Roberts’ comment.
