Recent airings of professional athletes “coming out” seems to be big news. There is no reason that I see for all of the coverage. These folks are no different than anyone else except that their sexual orientation is not main stream (what ever that means). That difference should not be considered a difference as many of us serve, work and live along side members of the LGBT segment of society and have no clue about them beyond “water cooler” conversation. Think about how many celebrities and other high profile people have “come out” to the shock and amazement of the public as a whole. What if all of us took the position to accept each person on their individual merit as opposed to their sexual orientation, race, religion or ethnicity -Wow! what a concept!! The people who are unwilling to accept anyone different are usually the flawed ones and unfortunately some are excellent persuaders in hate and deception (kind of sounds like a major legislative branch). The majority of us “mainstreamers” (99%) have no issue with one another and are able to see through the smoke and mirrors of aired hate and subterfuge so it is left to us to unite with all and any like minded people (whoever they are) and continue to make the efforts for change in our society thereby affecting a change in our government.
