Was Burl Ives gay?

He wasn't bad looking when he was younger.

I can see him taking it up the poop chute.

Mary!

He ran a brothel for gay men in his hometown of Anacortes Washington, not sure if he was gay himself.

Major pussyhound. Big Bush supporter.

Mom played Burl Ives when I was very young in the early 80's. (I'm sure very few people my age have heard his music). I always pictured him looking like the Quaker Oats quaker.

Lol R3.

Please tell me you're lying.

Mr. Burl Ives was no goddamn Bear, sir. He was a Daddy, and a Big Daddy at that!

I always thought he was attractive. Had several of his records growing up. Maybe that little gayling, me, was onto something?

Burl Ives liked to get fisted!

As in dress up ?

r5, your zaftig mother playing Burl Ives, what a lovely memory for you...was that summer stock in the Poconos?

Is that CRISCO in Yukon's hand, at R9?

....

Chubby chasers would have love Miss Ives.

Heard a story when I was a boy that he came to visit some of my grandparents church friends in my hometown of Mount Airy, NC. Being a religious couple they would not let him sleep in the same room with the woman he brought with him because they were not married.

Poor lost R15.

You're clearly in the wrong thread.

Geez, how did I end up with all the fags?

R17, are you saying that Burl Ives was a homiesexual?

A lot of those old lefty folk singer types - like Will Geer (Grandpa Walton) - seem to have been gay.

Why did he decide to go with the toupee?

Everyone already knew he was balding.

The rest were all posers out for pussy.

I honestly sang a "Holly Jolly Xmas" with him at the tree lighting ceremony at the White House back in 1979. I was in the accompanying boys choir. It was a big deal for us, but I don't recall a single thing about him.

That ass would be like a Happy Bounce House!

Fisting is fun!

Have a holly, jolly fist fuck

It's the best time of the year

I don't know if there'll be Crisco

But have a cup of cheer

There will never be another "Big Daddy' like Burl Ives. He owns the character.

He was straight. I know.

Always seemed like a foxy old queen to me....Two tons of fun.

This is DL, everyone and anyone is gay.

did 'im

Who?

His preferred lyric was "Rudolph, the pink-holed choirboy."

Am I crazy , or was he in a film triangle with Sophia Loren and Anthony Perkins(!)?

He never fucked me.
