Cynthia Nixon Gets Engaged! To A WOMAN! Thanks a lot Carrie Prejean. You've spent the last month blathering on about gay marriage and look at the consequences. The main consequence is that we've been forced to remember that Cynthia Nixon exists. Cynthia Nixon, the ginger one off Sex And The City famous for being a) a lesbian and b) not even in anybody's list of top five Sex And The City characters, has got engaged to her girlfriend. See? Even Sex And The City stars can have same-sex marriages. Except Sarah Jessica Parker - it's so hard to find a mutant horse/woman hybrid who isn't married these days.
