Why is
it such a big deal when someone famous comes out of the closet? I ask
that question already knowing the answer. I'm sure that for gays,
lesbians, and all the other names that seem to come out every year
for gay folks (kinda like Black, Negro, African American, Colored) it
is awesome to have someone that is well known let the world know who
they truly are. I can't imagine how hard it must be to have to keep
your sexuality a secret from family, friends, and the public for fear
of being rejected, attacked, or disowned. Its silly that its still
even a thing that happens. Your child likes someone if their same
sex? Wow! That's so...unheard of.
No, it
isn't.
I
think what bothers me most about the fact that its still a big deal
is that your sexual preference is just that: a sexual preference. It
doesn't make someone better or worse by being gay. Its just who they
have sex with. That's all. When people talk about being gay being the
downfall of society it makes my eyes cross.
