I have become interested in Lindsey Lohan. Well, I say "interested", by which I mean I don't know who she is or what she does or how to spell her name. I only know of her through the constant bagging she received on Get This. The point is, I've become interested enough to read the headlines about her in the women's mags while waiting at the checkout in the supermarket. This week's headlines include that she has a girlfriend, that she's pregnant and that she claims she's not gay or bisexual. So I'd like to stress first off that I acknowledge the possibility that this may not match the highwater mark of journalism and that there is an outside chance that at least some of it is not true. But I'm intrigued. She has apparently posed for the cameras with her girlfriend and yet denied that she is gay and when asked if she was bi said 'maybe', but has confirmed that she is attracted to women.
So the question is, does she not understand what the words mean? Or is this some kind of radical challenging of the hegemonic discourse of sexuality?
