[QUOTE="Brandi, post: 2181114, member: 24446"] I say good for him, that had to be monumentally difficult for him do. I'm a firm believer in real equality for all. As for the ones that said they don't care but he should have kept it to himself it's not a matter of him announcing his sexuality because he wanted attention, it's the only way he could make it all go away. Up until announcing it he had to hide part of his life. Straight people don't have to hide anything because nobody cares but if you're a gay NBA player or whatever and you have to hide part of your life, that had to be terrible for him, especially being in the public eye. The guy couldn't even be himself and that's not right. Now that it's out though he can live his life like everyone else and it becomes a non-issue. So by coming out he basically made it a non-issue. No doubt the press will be all over him initially but once the new wears off even they won't care. [/QUOTE]
