I could not find sources verifying his sexuality. I removed the categories for now, though I don't mind the reverts. I found Pride LA claiming his sexuality, but that's the only one I found. I tried other sources but found nothing else. --George Ho (talk) 09:46, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Zigzig20s: I see you reverted my removal. What other sources can verify his sexuality? WP:CATEGRS#Sexuality discusses how to categorize deceased people on basis of sexuality. --George Ho (talk) 10:03, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

LA Pride quotes him saying, "Gay men who, like me, have been aware of him for years, shower Hay with these earnest introductions.".Zigzig20s (talk) 10:05, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Zigzig20s: I carefully found the origin of the source, quoted by Pride LA. I realized that Timmons outed himself in one of his books, so I cited it. --George Ho (talk) 10:28, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Thanks. I've read the book he wrote with Faderman but not the other one, so I wasn't sure if he talked about himself in it. Good find! Maybe you could add the page number?Zigzig20s (talk) 11:22, 31 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
