JOE Francis insists his decision to join the gay rights march in DC had nothing to do with rehabilitating his troubled image — but all about civil rights. The “Girls Gone Wild” creator told us, “With the gay movement, it’s personal. The same religious-right [bleep]holes who took away my civil rights and put me in jail for a year because they don’t like what I do for a living have taken away gay rights. I know firsthand how it feels to have your civil rights stripped from you.” But proving that the leopard never really changes its spots, Francis added, “P.S., lots of lesbians marched, too.”
