Betty White talks gay marriage, being a gay icon

Fri. October 29, 2010

Hollywood - Comedienne Betty White said in an interview with Parade that she's pro-gay marriage.

"I don't care who anybody sleeps with," she said. "If a couple has been together all that time—- and there are gay relationships that are more solid than some heterosexual ones—- I think it's fine if they want to get married.



White said she's baffled by the anti-gay marriage movement.

"I don't know how people can get so anti-something. Mind your own business, take care of your affairs, and don't worry about other people so much," she said.

She also said she thinks she's been a gay icon since the 1980's because "gays love old ladies."

She also said as an 88-year-old straight woman, she's very pro-sex overall.

"I've enjoyed the opposite sex a lot," she said. "Always have. Always will."
