Theodore Roosevelt Was A Gay Man

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Newly uncovered documents at the National Archives reveal that Theodore Roosevelt was not only a burly outdoorsman, but also a gay man. “We’re not trying to debunk any myths here,” head archivist Fran Fretny said. “All we’re saying is that he was quite gay.” Evidence of Roosevelt’s gayness include his excessive smiling; his jolly, booming voice; and his generally “sunny” disposition. “He was just a happy, robust, cheerful fellow, is all we’re saying,” Fretny concluded, adding that she did not mean to imply that Roosevelt was a homo.
