HELP! Marissa Coleman (Anyone know about her?)

Marissa Coleman is a basketball player for Maryland. She's quite possibly the most gorgeous woman I've had the pleasure of looking at on the basketball court.

As I was watching the Maryland matches, she caught my eye and my gaydar kind of exploded. Does anyone else agree with me? Or am I just having a case of wishful thinking?

Watch this video and see for yourself:

Thanks

I don't know

I don't know. I think people assume all non-fems who play ball are gay. I wouldn't jump too soon on that. She is beautiful though.

yep

My friend, who has the best gaydar I have encountered, is 100% that she's gay so there you go. If I see her on campus on her little scooter I'll let her know you're interested ;-)

Nope- she's a hetero

Sorry to burst your gaydar bubble but Coleman is straight. My friend from the softball team [ha!] lives in their dorm and is friends with all of them. Of course Coleman's in the minority as there's only 4 straight women on the Maryland according to my friend. Coleman joins Marah Strickland, Crystal Langhorne, and Emery Wallace as those who don't play for our team. The rest? Fair game as far as I know.

She is a very beautiful woman. Exploded on my gaydar too...glad to clear up the wondering mind though.

Not sure

I have never been wrong with my speculations, and I still don't believe I am now. Sheryl Swoopes comes to my mind when I try to find a comparison. I think she'll eventually come out of the closet.

I think she's a lesbian

Allright, so I read the post from probablytripping but there is just something about her that shouts "Gay". Almost the same way that Ellen Page does. Anyways, regarding your post ; Claiming someone straight, does not make them straight. I know so many women, who have a difficult time coming out due to their own relative pressures. I agree with Hunter on this, I also get the strong lesbian vibe. And I don't think that I am wrong. But I guess only time can tell. But watching that Youtube video, she is so stunning. It would be fantastic if she was on our team no?

 Love On Ya

Louisianagyrl337: Toliver...

Louisianagyrl337: That one's a definite- Kristi Toliver is gayer than pride parade haha. As is Jade Perry who was in my queer film class... they follow in the footsteps of Shay Doron who got drafted to the NY Liberty this year. She used to date a girl on the field hockey team so I hear....

And I know all of you are saying that Coleman is gay but I see her all the time and I know a ton of people who are friends with her, I'm pretty much like 90% sure she's straight, her whole team is basically gay it's not that she's afraid to come out or anything or like waiting or something-- she's just legitimately straight. Which is not a problem or a bad thing.

Gaydar is just another form of stereotyping... can't a straight girl be athletic and badass too?
