Growing up in the '80s, I was a fan of "The Golden Girls". I watched the show all the time as a kid, as good an indicator as any that I would turn out gay. My favorite character was Dorothy, played by Bea Arthur, an actress that made her name in theater before becoming a major TV star in the 70s and 80s with "Maude" and then "The Golden Girls". Bea just passed away after a struggle with cancer, and I wanted to dedicate this post to her. The video below is of Bea and Angela Lansbury singing the duet "Bosom Buddies". In the 1960s, the two starred in the play "Mame" with Lansbury in the title role and Bea Arthur playing her sidekick Vera.
