A lesbian blogger who publicly criticised Tom MacMaster, the 'Gay Girl In Damascus' hoaxer, is also in reality a married man who flirted online with the other fake, it has emerged.[/quote]
I will resist joking about it. They corrupted a vital cause to their immense shame.

yup and it does cause suspicion.
Since the initial "unveling" a fellow lesbian blogger who had given support to this blogger was also found to be a man - a middle aged retired US air force person.
Questions arise with the word "CIA" in them but the cause of the people on the ground is legitimate.

There is no question. Pretending to be a (Muslim) lesbian and flirting with other people who you think might be lesbians is a fetish thing.

He was claiming to be from Damascus, not Edinburgh. It looks like his wife might have forced him to confess.

What is there to be confused about?
