…… I read her article and it was disgusting. I think sometimes these coloumnists – with their over inflated ego’s and not-so-humble opinions – forget that the people they are writing about have families. Stephen was a son to loving parents and her crude remarks make dealing with his passing even more difficult. No family should have to bear that. If it were Moir’s child – regardless of his or her sexuality – would she be pleased to read an article in a newspaper slamming her child or criticising how he lived his life? I doubt it. She is no doctor or pathologist so her version of Stephen’s death remains irrelevant. Before make such pathetic statements maybe next time she should back it up with some facts. That way she won’t look a total fool the next time.
And what I don’t get it is why didn’t she just say what she meant in the first place? Why write a coloumn that is open to ridicule or invites anger from readers? I think I know the answer to that one: publicity.

In reply to Taylor. the real reasons. When you write: "why didn't she just say what she meant in the first place?", I couldn't agree more.

However, when you say: "I think I know the answer to that one: publicity", I think the real answer is that it is really homophobia. If and when she gets flak for that, then she turns to obfuscating.
