Alternatively....
Reduce the fking closet to kindling, by going "This is what I am! Can we please get on with our respective lives" It's another point of view. |

It would appear from the innuendo, s****ing and rumour-mongering that regularly occurs herein and on other social media that people do 'care'.
Otherwise, I completely agree with you. |

Roger. Coming out will have no effect on Neanderthals. Sexuality should be part of our private lives similar to our political leanings.
I just don't get it, sorry. |

Coming out won't have any effect on Neanderthals but then again only cheaper beer and oven chips are the only things that will.
I don't know the pressures involved in being gay and then being gay and having a public profile where the whispering never ceases. Perhaps he thought it was just a more honest way to live his life. Maybe he thinks that rational humans with a degree of compassion and empathy might go 'Okay, we now know where you stick it - what are the chances of Michael Jamieson winning gold in Rio 2016?' |

that is fair But unfortunately gays are far too aggressive for my taste nowadays, although not Ian Thorpe After we passed the law on gay marriage, any compassion and empathy I had for them ceased. |

Seems like the rumours might be unfounded. You're still in with a chance teddles

Instead of making a big thing about it by announcing their sexual preference to the world, why can't gay people just give subtle hints like mincing about and speaking in a funny voice or something?

In Stansted airport this morning, a guy came out of a side door and did the gayest, minciest , walk I have ever seen, whilst holding a cup of coffee. I assume he was an air steward.

Has he announced this today? I think he is literally the last person to know, it was obvious 14 years ago when I first heard of him,Tom Daley another who was clearly gay, must be something in the water.
