    "The fact that [John Lennon's] partner was a woman resulted in an incredible media attack. But that appealed to John's sense of fun. Smiling, he' say, 'Oh, they're upset, are they?' He saw the criticism as foolishness."

    This is one of Yoko's more delusional statements, I'd say. The media attacked John and Yoko because Yoko was *female*? What, they wanted him to be gay?
