I think he came out in college? I remember reading some "where are they now?" thing in People mag years ago and he said he was gay, finishing school, and looking to do theater in NYC. Good for him on his engagement.

Meanwhile, Magic Johnson and his son are awesome.

NBA player Jason Collins comes out, making him the first currently-playing male athlete in a major American sport to do so. The whole editorial is really worth reading.

Some people insist they've never met a gay person. But Three Degrees of Jason Collins dictates that no NBA player can claim that anymore. Pro basketball is a family. And pretty much every family I know has a brother, sister or cousin who's gay. In the brotherhood of the NBA, I just happen to be the one who's out.

Collins' piece in SI is great - just don't read the comments if you don't want to lose some faith in humanity. Typical screaming about the media "glorifying" this and tons of ridiculous circular logic trying to prove that it is all a choice.

Though if anyone wonders why Collins is brace for doing that he did, the proof is attached to the bottom of that article

Yep, George is mah hero! Hmmm... And now I have to switch up my icon because I love those pics of him better than what I have now. Reading dumb girls the riot act trumps him reading 50 Shades of Grey!

(Eta- nope, the words on his pad don't show up so well. 50 Shades of Takei stays!)

Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another, as if we were one single tribe~ Black Panther

I had no idea Danny Pintauro (Johnathan Bower on Who's the Boss?) was gay. He got engaged to his boyfriend of 1 year.

I've seen lots of comments from people saying they thought he was gay back when Who's the Boss was on!

Will multiple NFL stars come out simultaneously to take the pressure off one player? That would make a lot of sense. They should time it for the summer lull when ESPN and all the sports shows are waiting for football to start back up again anyway.
