I've half an ear on the midday news, and heard something about a pro basketball player announcing he is "gay". Would it be newsworthy to announce one is heterosexual?
Does this really matter to you folks? Is your sexual orientation something that needs to be broadcast over worldwide news?
It seems the more we label ourselves and set ourselves apart from others via age, sex, ethnicity, gross annual income, sexual preference, etc. etc. etc., the more we segregate ourselves. It seems like fueling confrontation, distrust, and social unrest.

I have wondered this as well. I was thinking that we should all come with labels attached to our necks for anyone to read. It would cut down on paparazzi accidents as well as wasting any time with the wrong partner... it's a win/win idea if you ask me.

I think it's ridiculous that Obama called him to congratulate him on his coming out. Is this all you have to do to get a personal phone call and accolades from the president ? If so , then maybe I'll tell people I'm gay ( I'm not ) just so the president will call me

It would be newsworthy if a prior "disclosure" that one was "gay" was unfounded and that person took offense to it. In this case, "clearing the air" and having it refuted, would be appropriate.
