Writes Chaz:

"With my dad, I was comfortable and happy.

"He treated me like the boy I felt myself to be."

But Cher would say insensitive things like, "You walk like a truck driver. You dress like a slob."

But judging from the above-linked photos, what I'm basically learning is that not only do lesbians wear plaid shirts, but straight men do too!

After all, they have that Cher connection. End of story.

But that's not really what the interview (done by writer Natalie Hope McDonald) is about anyway.

Cher once had problems coming to terms with her daughter Chastity's lesbianism, and now she admits she still wrestles with being totally comfortable regarding Chastity's transitioning to Chaz Bono.

The Oscar-winning singer/actress still gets the pronouns wrong and sometimes forgets to say "he," but something about the way she's so honest about this is quite disarming and you end up understanding her fallibility and sort of liking her, as always.
