"Sex and The City" star Cynthia Nixon has been living with education activist Christine Marinoni since 2004. "I never felt like there was an unconscious part of me around that woke up or that came out of the closet," she once said in a newspaper interview. "There wasn't a struggle, there wasn't an attempt to suppress. I met this woman, I fell in love with her, and I'm a public figure."
