Thor and Lee never witnessed much time with Jim they said so themselves but they did spend time with Freddie out and about and they were close friends I stand behind that. Yes no mystery he was a gay man so don’t know why there is so much misunderstanding about the woman thing. Some men don’t like to have sex with women and it’s okay they don’t. It’s not leave it to beaver or Fathers knows best anymore. Or I love Lucy.Im also basically standing up for what I feel is right they like Mary Austin have been silent except for few words their book will not tell what dirty stories people think it will.Im leaving Jim out of this equation for now.Its obvious he and Mary feuded it had nothing to do with Thor or Lee or the New York Years.I believe to save face they will be no reference to interaction with women during those times and they may make it a point because I can see it being a little insulting to Gay men they realize they are gay and go through hell at home leave home to embrace their freedoms.No they don’t want nobody saying he is bisexual and sleeps with girls.So yes I think this may be included material I hope so. Freddie really struggled his parents made it hard for him too I read. But like most parents they came around.
Gay people are sexually attracted to people of the same gender, that doesn’t necessarily mean they “don’t like” sex with the opposite gender. I’m a straight woman, but that doesn't mean I couldn't enjoy sex with a woman, it's just not what I'm naturally or instinctively drawn to.
I don't care what Lee and Thor will be writing, doesn't matter. They can tell their stories by writing a blog or something. I just wish ”friends” would stop making money off of telling stories about Freddie’s private life.
Freddie’s mother didn't even leave money to the charity named after her son in her will, The Mercury Phoenix Trust, so not sure how much they ”got over it”. How you leave money for other charities, but not the one named after your own some seems pretty cold to me.
