It's his lack of ego that's the problem and he overcompensates to hide it

Sanfran, hate to tell ya bud, but I make a better looking "boy" than you do a "girl." (I cross dressed with a gay friend of mine one year for Halloween -- he was one of those Dynasty broads and I was her gangsta boyfriend!) I did, however, pass as a gay man, until one of the guys brushed up against by "breastes" and hollered out "oh my gawd, it's a woman!" just to interject some humor

This thread started about Marcellas' ego, and his ego has nothing to do with his sexual orientation. I think Marcellas is a DRAMA queen (and NOT a drag queen). I think Marcellas is a little bit unstable, and I think the stress of living 24/7 with a buncha other folks (and him being a germaphobe) is pushing him a tad bit over the edge. I also think Marcellas LOVES to be the center of attention. Period. His sexuality has nothing to do with it (Chiara, as you might recall, also liked to be the center of attention. Even her friends admitted as much.)

Oh, I think Marcellas definitely has an overblown ego, but he also has really low self esteem. The best saying I know that can describe that is "feeling like the piece of sh*t around which the whole universe revolves."

I would have to add that Marcellas doesn't *consciously* think of himself as a "piece of..." but his actions point out how he needs constant attention and flattery in order to feel good about himself, which says "low self esteem" to me.

Good point, Sanfran! Similar to those who constantly brag about themselves may also have low self-esteem.

Of course, I'm just being a couch-counselor here (or should I say computer-counselor)... <grin>

I'm hoping that he'll recover once he leaves the house, and that he has a REALLY LONG visit with the show shrink as he exits.

You know, Sheila -- if more people were willing to ask and to learn like you are -- about a lot of things, not just sexuality -- the world would be a much better place.

Ignorance is only bad if a person is not willing to overcome it.

During Marcy's rambling talk with himself, he made a remark that almost brought tears to my eyes (and I have come to detest the man). It was when he was talking about having a child and naming him Huck. He said something to the effect that his mother would hate it but she would be happy if he had a child. It would make up for the bitter disappointment he had been to her. Can you imagine feeling that you are a bitter diappointment to your mother, not because you have done something unforgivable, but just because who you are? Therein may his lack of self esteem. After all there are serial killers who are still loved by their mothers no matter what they have done.

Mar's thinks that Gerry has a "thing for him" on tonight's show. they are showing Gerry following Mar's into the bathroom, laying inbed with him.

Mar's is saying in the DR how Gerry always wants to talk to him in the shower. And, low and behold, Gerry is at the shower talking to Marcellas.

it is really funny. even if Gerry says that, "he thinks Marcellas might have a problem with being friends with a straight man. he is confident in his sexuality"

this is so funny. not sure if it should go here.

Snee: "sanfran: nail head hit"

Snee, there you go again! I am constantly amazed and awed by your economical way with words! You are a true inspiration! Say, do you write Western Union messages for a living?

Did you see how they were shooting Mar on the Feeds, it looked like he was laying on the shark and the fin was strategically placed!

All I can say is once Gerry is gone, who will Marcellus berate and belittle next??? He wouldn't be nice to the rest... would he?

When has Marc's ego been under control?

Joker, Marc and Amy will go on as they had trashing Tonya. Gerry will be no exception because he is gone. Thats the shame of it all. These people feel the need to kick even when that person is down and out (game wise)

Joker, I'm pretty sure Dani would be next on their list. They've already started a little bit on occassion.
