The pride of Tammy Faye
In an interview with New York magazine, Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker's son Jay says that he thinks his mom is a gay icon because:
"She’s been criticized for so much stuff, and she’s never changed. I think the gay community has been so harshly judged in the past that they relate to the pain she’s been through."
He also says of the Christian Right:
"A lot of them are missing the point. The anti-gay stance, all that stuff. I think that’s wrong."
Refreshing.
It's unclear if Jay has also retained his mother's support for the mascara community. We'll let you know if he eyelashes out against the superficial, cosmetic policies of the current administration.
