Yoko Discusses Criticisms of Her (Boston Globe, 1986)

[Norbert]

"The fact that [John Lennon's] partner was a woman resulted in an incredible media attack. But that appealed to John's sense of fun. Smiling, he' say, 'Oh, they're upset, are they?' He saw the criticism as foolishness."

-- Yoko Ono quoted in the Boston Globe in 1986

This is one of Yoko's more delusional statements, I'd say. The media attacked John and Yoko because Yoko was *female*? What, they wanted him to be gay?
