I was this article and the first part of it was Lover sends Craig david nude pics. So I started thinking, so does this means he's gay? I didn't know he was gay. Dang he's gay. not that it's a bad thing I just didn't know.
That was before I read the first line of the story where it clearly stated his girlfriend sent the picture. So shame on me for assuming but tell me what do pops in your head when you think lover?

lover is a term often used to say signifigant other. But almost every time I heard the term used it was to say the other half of a homosexual. When they didn't want to come out and straight up say boyfriend. Like on Ricki lake when they bring a man's man out they say lover instead of boyfriend.

nope, just the term in general, when you hear it does homosexual come to mind like if you heard this: "Ashton Kutcher and his lover" would you think Demi or oooooh!

You know I never really though of it before, but yeah it does make you think of homsexualism. That's a shame that we all can't refer to our mates using the same words without question! I'm going to start referring to my man as my lover too!

Why do they do that in the media, I feel like they are trying to throw you off with that word. They want us to speculate but not be sure. If my favorite male sex symbol has a boyfriend or girlfriend it's really OK I just want to look anyway! I remember my junior year in high school all these girls where in love with Ricky Martin. Then mid-semester our spanish teacher came to our school from Costa Rica and she was like it was a well know fact in the Latin community that he was gay. Do you know those same girls were ripping his posters out of their lockers by lunch time!

I always wondered about Ricki, but wasn't he getting married? No that was mark anthony, anyhow I feel you tori on that one. I guess the idea is sex symbolism. For instance, Nick Lachey is in all of Jessica simpsons video's but she is not in his. He has all these dancers and it's because he has to support the image to his female fans whom are still into him despite him not being available. So why can't Jessica have someone rolling around with her talking about the sweetest thing?
