[Mb-hair] Another reason to like Jimi Hendrix

[Amy Kazan]

I found this article on AOL..... the best part is that
he went to far as to claim he was "addicted to
masturbating." Masturbation can be fun..... lol:)

SEATTLE (August 1) - Jimi Hendrix might have stayed in
the Army. He might have been sent to Vietnam. Instead,
he pretended he was gay. And with that, he was
discharged from the 101st Airborne in 1962, launching
a musical career that would redefine the guitar, leave
other rock heroes of the day speechless and culminate
with his headlining performance of "The Star-Spangled
Banner" at Woodstock in 1969.

Hendrix's subterfuge, contained in his military
medical records, is revealed for the first time in
Charles R. Cross' new biography, "Room Full of
Mirrors." Publicly, Hendrix always claimed he was
discharged after breaking his ankle on a parachute
jump, but his medical records do not mention such an
injury.

In regular visits to the base psychiatrist at Fort
Campbell, Ky., in spring 1962, Hendrix complained that
he was in love with one of his squad mates and that he
had become addicted to masturbating, Cross writes.
Finally, Capt. John Halbert recommended him for
discharge, citing his "homosexual tendencies."

Hendrix's legendary appetite for women negates the
notion that he might have been gay, Cross writes.
