Is this article necessary? Wikipedia is not biography. The only thing that Gay, Sr. is noted for is bringing his son into this world, and out of it. 209.149.235.254 21:10, 21 Apr 2004 (UTC)

That makes him notable. I'm mad at myself though for having a Bill Cosby/Cosby Show flashback just now: "I brought you into this world, and I'll take you out!". :/. But Marvin Gaye (the singer) apparently wanted to die, though; he was chronically depressed for most of his lifetime. --b. Touch 19:55, 9 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Maybe it's just be but the article doesn't seem to make it clear who was the closet crossdresser - Marvin Jr or Sr? --TheCooperman 19:44, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

The external link provided is currently nothing but a mirror of this wikipedia article -- utterly useless and not a reliable source. Can anyone provide real citations to back up this article? For example, I'd never heard anything about the alledged crossdressing before ... can somebody cite some references? 66.17.118.207 13:58, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
