    Nice to see our Gay brothers being brave and honest. This is one way to overcome shortsighted homophobism and any Gays who might be in the closet admit to yourself that you are Gay and be PROUD of that fact.

    One very big name is missing here--the one and only Dawn Fraser, winner of the gold medal for 100 free in three consecutive Olympics, Melbourne (1956), Rome (1960), and Tokyo (1964). (Michael Phelps is the only swimmer to have won the same event in four consecutive Games.). Dawn has spent a lifetime standing up for human rights, including sexual rights.

    Swimming and especially diving, seem to be sports with a relatively percentage of out LGBTQ+ athletes. When I was a little kid, I liked to swim at a nearby pool because of a very handsome lifeguard.

      Not anymore. LGB - Yes, we are OK. Trans - No, absolutely not!
      Men do not belong in women sports. Trans -- esp MALE trans -- are cheaters.

    Within red states and a red congress and senate, too many gays talents have been hampered. After 25 years working for the State of WV, I know. When graduatiing from college, a director aid to me, your degree does not qualify you for further training or a better job.

    • @danmur2797
      @danmur2797 Рік тому +2

      I don't know if that's common misconception, but most swimmers are not in fact gay at all. Many, especially male swimmers are very much like football bros who are really homophobic and make crude remarks regards gay people. Then there's the swimmers who are also the surf bros and are a bit more laid back and relaxed, but still straight.
      Many had girlfriends in high school and later married women. Some became high school coaches--and still chased high school girl swimmers getting in trouble (you know which kind of trouble).
      Swimmers also often play water polo which is very much like soccer in the water. A bit more rough/violent though. And it takes a lot of stamina (and a certain jock weight training personality) to be a water polo player. You could tell some high school varsity water polo jocks roided even back in the early 2000s.
      That's not to say some swimmers were not gay, but it was a minority as with the rest of the population. It's really no different in the swim world.

      No, they're not. Wish that were the case (it would have been more fun in high school), but unfortunately, most were straight (a few even homophobic).
      It's not different than in the general population.
