I was conned by JT Leroy
I talked to him on the phone for hours. I even listened to his therapy sessions on tape. And after one particularly weird conversation about his upcoming sex-change operation, I decided he was a fake. So why did I still get sucked in?

  • One of the worst ever, sorry.

    I'm not usually interested in the entertainment/literature stories, so I'm accustomed to skipping them. What drew me in to this one is that I had no idea who JT Leroy is or was, so I started reading....

    and reading....

    and reading...

    all the way to the end and I STILL don't know.

    Yes, I know I could google him/her/it, or read all the other letters here, but I've wasted enough time already.

    Editors, it would have taken only a sidebar.
