  1. The reporters need to be careful with their pronouns. If it’s a ‘she’ then she can’t be in a relationship ‘she’ shared with another man. Let’s learn to respect others hence, next time simply used her bf, her man etc….

  2. Why it should not make the news? You people are still living in the dark age. You do know guyana have and always will have LGBT right. Do you have any idea how many gay men in guyana get married to women and have men on the side???.
