Here is what I hope that we can get to
I would have been much happier if he had come out as a person that was going to work hard and help his fellow man,
What importance is there on him say Hey Look at me I am Gay? Who Cares? If he is a good man, Gob Bless him, no matter his chosen lifestyle.
Do all of us Straight people have to come out as Straight. It should not matter one bit. That is all I am saying.

I'm still not sure why the reluctance to do so or big deal anymore. Just go be happy in the life you desire.

I can understand your position, but I think you are looking at it wrong. First off, most people are straight, so there is no need to "come out" as straight. But when you spend your life living a lie, it eats you up a bit. When you decide to stop living that lie, it becomes important that you stop lying to the people you love and respect. Who did not say that her nephew was marching in the local pride parade half naked shouting "I'm gay" to the world, he simply told those he cares about.
I do agree that one's sexuality should not matter one bit, but that is not the reality yet. I do see promise in the new generation though, they don't seem to care nearly as much about it as mine (and Who's nephew's) did.
