Ronaiah Tuiasosopo admitted to Dr. Phil that he was in love with Manti Te’o so that’s why he tried to ruin his life. Okay, understandable. We’ve all been there. Some of us live there.
But the hoaxer hasn’t yet come to grips with his homosexuality, and probably won’t anytime soon.
“If you look at this situation and everything that I’ve been through, I would say yeah I’m gay. But honestly I’m so confused,” Tuiasosopo told ole Quick-Draw McGraw.
As a devout Christian, Tuiasosopo feels he’s afflicted with a case of “the gay” and needs to “recover” from it as one would recover from a drug or alcohol problem.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“It takes a lot of courage to recover from homosexuality and this type of thing and coming back to your real life. As hard of a task it is, I’m going to do all I can to live right.”
No tea, no shade, but being gay is the least of Tuiasosopo’s concerns. Creating a fake girlfriend and leading on some hapless goof, leading to a national scandal and endless late night fodder immediately comes to mind.
Dr. Phil, however, would like to address Tuiasosopo’s gay guilt at some point, probably on another highly-publicized episode.
“This is for another time, but I have so much to say to you about what you just said, because a lot of it bothers me so much,” the ‘stached out psych said. “But we will talk about that another time.”
Well, let’s put a fire under that, Doc, before some other football player/fake girlfriend/self-loathing gay love triangle scandal pops up.

My boyfriend Justin Bieber just called me to say that our other boyfriend Zac Efron and his lover Chad Overstreet are coming over with Rock Hudson James Dean and Liberace to take us to New Orleans for the Super bowl. I had to break my date with Abe Lincoln and his lover Joshua Speed, plus JFK and his boyfriend Lem Billings for our scheduled party in Palm Springs and instead meet them at Mardi Gras for our annual naked romp through the streets of the Big Easy. I just spoke to Jesus on the phone and he will be joining us as well. I told Manti about this and he was very excited to meet Lincoln as well as JFK and he will be there with us.

This just got depressing.

Te’o is gay. Tuiasosopo is gay. Both from very religious families, so Manti had a “girlfriend” and Ronaiah is recovering from being a homosexual because they got caught in their elaborate lie.

*barf*
you can’t recover from homosexuality. you can, however, recover from the anti-gay and pro-Ignorance brainwashing that leads you to think you need to Not Be Gay.
