The Amy Schneider person, is evidently the one who comes out, not
Shakespeare, so who cares. Lots of actors and actresses are gay and
lesbian, and we know lots who are bi-sexual.
The transgender identity, with accompanying surgery, is increasingly
common. The confusion also leads to mystery couples, like the one in
the documentary "Darwin," where the transgender man-woman is coupled
with a supposed woman, who turns out to be lesbian. Or is it the
woman who identifies as lesbian, but turns out to be transgender? I'm
confused.
In fact, Shakespeare has long been recognized as probably bi-sexual,
based on evidence in the sonnets and contemporary use of the term
"love" by nobles addressing each other, probably in consequence of
neo-Platonism that was part of Renaissance rediscovery of classics, or
something.
