Dolly has been telling that story about the Tennessee street walker for years--it's nothing new. She credits her as her style inspiration.

Anyone who thinks Dolly Parton is "queer-friendly" should have their head examined.

This homophobic witch is all too happy to cram those homo-fucko-buckos into her surgically enhanced bodice, all the while singing the praises for Anita Bryant--she even gave a little speech at the opening of Bryant's failed "theater" in Pigeon Shit Forge, Tunnaseeyyyy proclaiming Anita to be "just the kinda family folks we'all need hyere in Pidgin Forge"

While I realize most of the people sucking cocks today are too young to remember Anita Bryant .... and while Dolly's grotesque body and demeanor are more than fair game for the drag queens of our time, can we please relegate this sour milk factory to the same region of sanctimonious hellfire as her faux-southern Baptist friends? hMMMMM?

A woman I used to work with ran a dyke bar somewhere in Texas (I don't know where or what it was called) several years ago, and apparently Dolly was a regular customer when she was in town. My friend said she was a lovely and sincerely down to earth person with a heart of gold.
I believe my friend.
