Greta Garbo was... a man?

Well, at least that’s what the mother of a friend of mine says. She insists that, when Greta Garbo died, the coroners found out that she was a HE, but this fact was covered up to avoid, uh, who knows what? Well, is anybody else here aware of this “urban legend”? And when this legend began to circulate?

Umm, no, sorry. Garbo was well-known for subathing and exercising in the nude, so there are plenty of snapshots of her in the altogether. And she was most assuredly female.

There have also been similar rumors about Mae West and Capucine, probably about as reliable.

No, but Billy Tipton was a woman!
