And, he's old. That opens up a whole new population of tail that would not normally approach him .  |
Nope. I know exactly what the point is. And my point is why is it so important? Why do we have to make a public statement about it? Unless you're living under a rock, you know that there are really no ramifications to being gay.
It would be like Thomas coming out to finally admit he has a small penis. I mean, we all know it, but why the press conference?
Now, old tail? That's a whole 'nother issue entirely.
