SALLY Ride was the first US woman in space and a role model for women everywhere. But one group had to wait until her death this week to claim her as a member - the gay community. In a statement prepared before her death on Monday of pancreatic cancer, Ride, 61, acknowledged publicly for the first time that she had a longstanding relationship with a woman, Tam O'Shaughnessy, who was her partner in business, science writing and life.
