I think it’s important for people who are in the public eye who don’t conform to gender stereotypes to come forward and make it clear they are not opting out of their sex. Eighties pop culture was full of people ‘gender -bending’ and exploring their sexuality/coming out and I think it’s a sorry state of affairs that there is a subset of people who want to push people back into those boxes- a man who doesn’t fit traditional male stereotypes and fancies other men must be a woman obvs! How did we get here??
I know BG has a chequered past in regards to DV (and Ive posted about that myself) but that isn’t what’s at play here, what’s relevant is a gay icon sticking to his guns and saying he is who is - a gay man. And I have to support that.
