The
other night WWE wrestler Darren Young, real name Fred Rosser, was
left off the upcoming tour in the Middle East. There are two sides to
this. One side is his where he feels that he is being left behind
because he is a openly gay man. The other side is that being gay is
not cool in the Middle East...openly.
Young stated on his Twitter
account “Why do we bring the best entertainment into a country like
abu dhabi and they look down upon women and gays? I get it!
#MillionsofDollars.” I get why he is upset and I also get why WWE
left him off the tour. Though I believe that he should be allowed to
do what he loves anywhere in the world I also understand that some
parts of the world are not as accepting as others and that the lives
of he and other performers run the risk of being attacked. It is a
wrestling company where people pretend fight each other for the
entertainment of millions. They aren't a country or political party.
