DITTO: ‘I’D RATHER BE A LESBIAN THAN PREGNANT TEEN’
American rocker BETH DITTO was terrified of coming out as a lesbian in her home town, but preferred that to the alternative - getting pregnant.
THE GOSSIP frontwoman was raised in Arkansas, where many locals viewed homosexuality as a sin, and thought girls should start producing children when they were barely into their teens.
Ditto says, "I so did not want to be gay. I didn’t want to come out of the closet. I would rather have lived my life in misery.
"At the same time I didn’t want to get pregnant because there was real pressure to do that too, even at 15." (MP/FRD/ES) WENN - FOURTH - HOLLYWOOD, SHOWBIZ & PEOPLE NEWS - 02 MARCH 2007
