Marking the first public statement since her daughter Chastity Bono – now Chaz Bono -- announced that she was undergoing a sex change, Cher is coming out to lend words of support for her daughter.
Cher says that Chaz is going through "a difficult journey, but one that I will support," and says that she respects "the courage it takes to go through this transition in the glare of public scrutiny, and although I may not understand, I will strive to be understanding," in a statement to UsMagazine.com.

Cher continued with kind words for her daughter, saying that her support is infinite.
"The one thing that will never change is my abiding love for my child," Cher said in the statement.
TMZ was the first to report that Chaz Bono was undergoing a sex change from female to male. "Yes, it's true -- Chaz, after many years of consideration, has made the courageous decision to honor his true identity," Bono's publicist Howard Bragman told TMZ.
"He is proud of his decision and grateful for the support and respect that has already been shown by his loved ones. It is Chaz's hope that his choice to transition will open the hearts and minds of the public regarding this issue, just as his 'coming out' did nearly 20 years ago," Bragman continued.

I'm sure there's plenty of bondage going on there.

@trentreviso:

The march was an attempt by the Russian gay community to attract attention to the issue of human rights, especially as it relates to gays.

well, atleast they managed their goal (though not the way they intended).

Republicans will use any trick in the book to try to explain away their hatred of gays.

This reminds me of President Obama and Hillary Clinton.

In favor of civil unions, but not actually in favor of gay "marriage." And, in Clinton's case, she favors the right of states to deny both civil unions and marriage, if they choose.

I appreciate President da Silva's support. But, there is a long way to go, and much work yet to be done.

I have mixed feelings about Stephen Fry.

I like a lof of his work {he was great in Black Adder}, but I hate that he feels the need to insult the US at every turn to get the British public to like him.

@raphjd:

Either way, it shows how fucked up people can be.

precisely what i was thinking !

i'm at a loss for words and disgusted !

Next they'll be voting. What is the world coming to?

One would imagine hotels would WANT people to come to them.

I figure there have been lots of openly Gay Leaders, the catch here is that this one is the NATION'S leader (or whatever Iceland considers themselves)

Bravo for bringing this to our attention. I'd have to say monks should probably be a bit less flamboyant, it just isn't monk-like!
