CONSPIRACY: Jamie Lee Curtis and the Baltimore Sun Op-ed …something something

For reasons that boggle even my own mind, this morning I found myself reading up on a few urban legends / hoaxes / etc. on the Internet and felt the need to update myself on the old chestnut “Is Jamie Lee Curtis genetically male but still has a vagina?” …so there’s that.

And no doubt there will be ideas floated past the … Read entire article »
