I know that Margie is desperate for companionship- & I suppose she really is so young-- but there has always been a starnge vibe between Margie & Ana--more so when she befriended the neighbor & Jodean------ it almost seems lesbianish to me--- Margie wants Ana for herself-- she seems obssessed with her I do hope this whole plot of hers in marrying goren blows up in her face as I see margie as my least fave-- she tries to appear sweet but really isn't-- she throws stuff at niki when nike wasn't sleeeping with Bill --manipuaulated Barb into taking the casino whe she wanted her own business--- & don't even get me started on poor Ben-- she knew that boys hormones were raginging- she had been warned by barb & still went-- Margie thinks only of herslelf

I also caught on to the lesbien overtones with the whole Jodean thing and Anna... I mean she doesn't really say or do anything but she does seem to get really attached to women other than her sister wives.
This whole thing with Goran will blow up in her face. She wasn't even out of the doghouse with Bill yet and now she's married to another man, without even discussing it with Bill. She chose to do it without discussing because she knew they'd say no way jose...
I think she genuinely wanted to help keep Anna and the baby in the united states, but more than anything she wanted an easy out as far as coming out about being a polygamist.
Margie has gotten more self centered and catty the last two seasons, that is for sure.

As much as I wish Margie was secretly a lesbian, I don't see it. She's sociable and feels alone a lot of the time and reaches out for friends, sometimes selfishly - but that isn't exactly a lesbian thing :?

I don't necessarily think Margie is a closeted lesbien... But... I could very easily see her being lonely and falling into something like that if a woman persued her.
Does that make sense?

I think that Margene is looking for a Mother or a sister rather than a female lover. She thought she was getting sisters with the sister wives but that is no longer working out for her so she is still seeking an adult female to bond to.

I don't think that Margene is a lesbian. When Margene says things to Nikki or Barb that may seem harsh it is usually because Barb and Nikki are trying to walk all over her. I don't think Margene is a bad person. She entered the family and started having babies right away. Barb and Nikki never seemed to take her seriously as a wife and continued to treat her like a babysitter. I don't think Margene has ever had anything all her own and that is what this business is. Also, I think she is trying to prover herself to Barb and Nikki. Remember how Margene was made fun of when she mentioned heart on a sleeve. For Margene to name her business that tells me that Margene is the type of person that wears their heart on their sleeve.
Who has sons in the 12 year old range? Would you let Margene babysit your 12 year old son? I would not! I could see trouble coming a mile away. I think that Barb is angry at herself for letting her life is so chaotic. Does that make sense? Mothers know their children. Barb would have had to known when Margene started babysitting that he had a crush on her.
I don't mean to get off of the subject. No, I don't think Margene is a lesbian. Now the woman at the home shopping network sometimes seems to be checking Margene out. That could just be my imagination.

Aha!!! The marriage to Goran isn't to play tit-for-tat so Goran won't have to blackmail the family by threatening to out them--it is to enable her to escape the polygamist label when Bill lets the cat out of the bag. OF COURSE. I don't know why I didn't see that. And it's not going to be for a few months, if Goran is going to be going to med school, or getting into a US medical residency--we're talking years here. OMG--this going to blow up in her face, but she won't care--she'd do anything to protect her business. I can just hear her now, patiently explaining to Bill what a good thing it will be for the family.

I think like many women are looking for male attention (and not necessarily in *that* way) because of the lack of a father figure in their lives; Margene is looking for platonic female attention and approval because she didn't get it from her own mother.
ROFL at your comment Albertaleon; regarding the woman at the home shopping network; personally I think that woman dresses extremely badly and it looks really cheap; her clothes are just so ill-fitting yet she has the nerve to lecture Margie on how she should look.

Yeah I mean on one hand that woman (Bev I think her name is) has a really tiny body and could get away with anything... Except the mixture of pink and red lol! I'm not a fan of pink and red being worn together.

I agree, Margene is looking for a female relationship, just not a sexual one.
I can see how she could easily wander into a female-female relationship though.

I think Margie would do wahatever was good for margie-- while I could see she was desperate for a friend, when she befriended the neighbor & then Jodean-- there has always been something different about her atrraction to Ana-- even when ana left & then they ran back into her, she was the same-- I think the guy Goran will say something & I also think ana is manipulative enough to use Margie if it gets her what she wants -- money etc-- I do not belive ana has any interest in Margene--- I think she has always been with Goran -we saw him last season too

The Ana storyline was a waste of time from the start. If they had stayed married that would have been one thing, but now we have these two seedy people in the family. I didn't think Ana was so ruthless before this season. I felt bad for her. Now she's just bitter and mean. And again, I don't see the point of this storyline, there really is enough for us to focus on without it.

I almost wondered if the writers couldn't think of anything else and were using her as time fillers the way the daytime soap writers sometimes do. Her return being pregnant this season wasn't something that I was all like "OH WOW! THAT IS SO SHOCKING AND UNEXPECTED!" it wasn't something I went around to my other big love friends and said "CAN YOU BELIEVE ANNA IS PREGNANT AND BACK!?" It is just a nuissance storyline and nothing else in my opinion.

I like the Anna storyline. I think Anna is sort of a stand-in for Everywoman. I mean, she sees the appeal of this family, and their love for each other, but also sees the craziness of it. The other wives can't really see it. Barb is too blinded by her love for Bill and her polygamous Mormon ancestors; Nicki by her upbringing, and Margene by her neediness.

I'm with ladykc. I think Anna is the voice of the outside, non-Mormon, non-FLDS, world - just like most of us. I'd like this woman as a friend, I think.
