    Being gay isn't a choice, treating people differently because they're gay is definitely a choice.

      +Whatt Ariana Conan does the fake laugh thing too, and it's usually pretty transparent since his genuine laughs are so distinct. The only late night host that comes to mind who isn't guilty of guest pandering is Letterman (I'm excluding Jon Stewart since TDS is a different format). I never really watched him much but just because of his attitude it's hard for me to imagine him doing that.

    I find it disturbing that so many people still hate homosexuals in America, in 2016. This video has 100 dislikes and only 700 likes, and all because a person is speaking about their sexuality. Its time we put an end to this nonsensical hate for homosexuals and realize that they are human beings, not sinners, not criminals, not something to be looked down upon. Its 2016, and it's time to accept the fundamental principal that this country was founded on, that ALL men (and women) are created equal.

      Two men. One will always have the smell of fecal matter on him or his sheets or his bed from the prefrence of being in a colon, lined with abrasive jagged walls with rough edged fecal matter at the sides also being pelleted by his penis now making a brown jizzumed slurry, or a guy that has normal sex. Not equal. Go watch gay porn and see how the equal feels. I could watch any man have sex in porno. As long as it's in a female. Thats the viceral affect. It's not equal if I can't relate with that man. That's the purpose of men on earth that in some way of life I could relate. With colon play do you relate that's why you equal to them?

      +King Kami The problem with your attitude is you seem to have animosity towards gays who ARE feminine or in your own words "the stereotype". Masculinity is a great thing and i'm glad there are plenty of gay masculine men, but you seem obsessed with it. And why the fuck is "addressing a male like a female" offensive to you anyhow? That seems pretty sexist. It's like "how dare you talk to me like an inferior woman!". I call plenty of women dudes and "bros" and they don't get offended that I "addressed them like a male". You seem to have personal issues regarding identity, gender roles, masculinity/femininity, etc etc. Which is fine but don't project those issues towards other people as if everybody shares your limited mentality.

He simply wanted to be a role model to young gay teens who might feel that their sexual orientation would inhibit their ability to enter sports. He's showing that you can still do sports and be who you are.

    My cousin was gay the day he was born! 2nd born child to two parents that wanted NOTHING more than kids. He had the life...raised in the near orthodox Jewish religion. ..but he was gay..I think the whole family knew it before he did. He didn't do anything wrong and neither did his parents. Before they even began the religion thing he wanted to play with his sisters toys.
    Stop the hate. Its wasted energy. Start bettering everything around you by letting other people be different than you. That difference is exciting! Better than someone doing & thinking EXACTLY like you.

    @stefankaiser960 8 років тому +2

    In order to come out to his family, wouldn't it have been the best and most natural way to kiss his boyfriend on television in Sochi when he won the silver medal? If I would have been in his position in Sochi, I would have given my boyfriend the most passionate kiss in front of the cameras, also because I would have weighed the political 'In your face, Putin' human rights action much higher than my tiny personal worries. Why even come out to family and friends through TELLING them? Why not simply kiss the person you love? I don't understand that. It's like "Oh I am gay, I can't kiss my boyfriend publicly because first I have to TELL my family that I kiss boys and only THEN I can kiss my boyfriend publicly". It almost sounds like "First of all I need the OK of my family before kissing my boyfriend publicly". I really don't understand that. THAT is the real bullshit about this story. I will never understand the kind of coming out when a gay boy/man informs his parents about his homosexuality beginning with "I hope you will still love me...", because this way maybe you don't even geht honest reactions from your parents. If you would not even come out, but simply live like you were born (gay), and when your parents see that, you will get the most honest reaction. For example simply bring your boyfriend to a family event, like a straight guy would bring his girlfriend to a family event. Simply kiss him, like a straight boy would kiss his girlfriend. And THEN you get the most honest reaction from your parents. I also think it is dangerous to do otherwise, because maybe your parents will hide their homophobia and will hurt you very much at a later point of time if you do the "I hope you will still love me ..." thing.

    What is it about the set design on most american talk shows that decides the guest's seat should be at about nipple- height of the host? Is it to remind us that the show is actually about the host rather than the guest? Sure looks like it from here.

    The shirt remark was so stupid. He was on the way to show that gay guys are damn normal. But then, out of nowhere, this stupid remark about the shirt and he completely destroyed the impression he left up to this point. It felt like as if he thought he had to say some stereotypical stuff in order to "prove" that he is gay or in order to be "funny". I would feel ashamed if I would have done that, not only because it was so artificial and unnecessary, but also because it strengthens the stereotypes and prejudices which are used to discriminate against gay people.

      +gotskinn He obviously exaggerated for the sake of humour. However, in retrospect, coming out so suddenly at the Olympics before he told his own family would have been disrespectful to them and he apparently realized that.

      I'm not sure it's "disrespectful" -- after all, it's completely up to the person to come out to whoever they want in whatever order they choose. However, I doubt he seriously considered it.
