<p dir="auto">Short hair doesn't mean a woman is gay.  She was referring to the loss of her daughter, not a lover.</p>

<p dir="auto">You have to listen super fast in order to catch it. But when KB's character refers to the loss of her lover, she briefly mentions seeing one-eyed Daisy's everywhere, referencing the "she loves me, she loves me not" jingle that she used to sing with her lover. I gather most of us aren't doing that with our daughters ;o).</p>

<p dir="auto">There was all that talk about "rainbows" throughout the movie, so make up your own mind<br />
"Go back to your oar, Forty One."</p>

<p dir="auto">I mostly thought this movie was stupid, but I thought it was cool how they included a gay character without making a big deal out of it.</p>

<p dir="auto">Buzz cut aside, she was missing the ubiquitous mustache of the true lesbian.</p>

<p dir="auto">For some reason, I thought Hannah was her daughter.  Kathy looks like a lesbian in this movie, but I thought it was her daughter.  Thanks for clarifying.</p>

Looks like I get something confused</p>

<p dir="auto">Yes, but it's unfortunate that they had to stereotype her by making her hair a buzz cut. We knew she was a Lesbian because she mentioned her dead lover, you don't have to hit us over the head with it. Not all Lesbians look like that.</p>
