Still the discrimination is a survivor too. In the hearts of many. Parents deny their kids love before they come out because they know and do not accept life that way. You are one of many who came out and are happy with it. There are many who came out and are sad with it. There are all types due to stereotypes, time frames and so much more we tell people to be. Good luck to you rugby player.
I think labeling people as 'gay' is also a discreet and overlooked form of homophobia, they're human beings just like everyone else, it's 'cause most people feel the need to label gay people as 'gay' so they're more comfortable with their own sexuality, I'm straight but I don't label people as gay, they're human beings regardless of their sexual orientation.
You did NOT ruin your wife's life. She had the opportunity to be with a kind, compassionate, honest, humble man....and for that she can only be thankful. Better than most women will ever find in their lives.
Seeing Gareth Thomas on this clip blew my mind. I have never seen a man with so much elegance, beauty, and grace. Not only is he inspiring, but he's also courageous. I am deeply moved by this. He has truly broken all boundaries, stereotypes, walls, chains, and cages that we as a people have confined ourselves to. I couldn't help, but to smile as he filled my heart and soul up with warmth. Anyone who has had the honor of meeting you in person is very blessed. Thank you, Gareth Thomas!!!
im exactly the same as him! im from england and play football not rugby! im only 19 and everything is soo confusing. I also walk across the cliffs near where i live and also want it to just end! Gareth has just made me realise im not alone, i now have hope! thank you sooo much gareth <3
@tetsuan25 Better is relative and rightly so. It can get better if you let it. It only stays the same when you just cant let go. You cant change how the world reacts to you...the only power you have is over how you react to it!
It's only a lie if you tell people you are straight. Just because you choose "not" to go around telling everyone you are gay, does not mean you are living a lie. Nor does it mean you are deceiving anyone.
No disrespect to Gareth, but he is a bit of an attention seeking populist. His presence on a tacky tv show like Big Brother proves this. He really should not go around telling other youngsters that life "gets better" if they come out. Not all young lads come from nice caring happy families.
This is how homophobia affects straight people too. Homophobia isnt just about Gay bashing, its a father who cant hug his son... a mother who is afraid of smothering her boy... a straight man who wants to pursue a stereotypically feminine occupation but cant... and gay men who are socially pressured to lead heterosexual lifestyle, and develope false relationships with women. But keep in mind, the women who complain about this, are often times teaching their sons to do it, ironic
Gareth- thank you for this. Most people have no idea of the fact that the worst person to come out to is yourself. It's that momement when you finally say "I will not despirately try to want something that I know in my soul I do not want..... "
@pavelzolnaj Let's see what a tough guy you are. I would like you to go up Gareth Thomas, and call him a faggot to his face. My bet is that you would be the pussy in that encounter.

That announcement was more important than all the rugby games Gareth has ever played. What a gutsy guy. What an inspiration. You're saving lives here, Gareth. Way to go!
i'm from north wales and i think gareth thomas is a very good player. i supported him when i didn't know he was gay supported him when he was supported him now he has retierd from rugby union and league.
This is inspiring, because im going thru the same thing he was going thru yet im onky 22. I dont wanna continue to lie to make everyone happy. I mean its just hard though.
@RonBurgundy161 For gay and bisexual men, HIV, hepatitis, and other STDs are of particular concern. For example, the rate of new HIV diagnoses among MSM is more than 44 times that of other men, while the rate of primary and secondary syphilis among MSM is more than 46 times that of other men. see w w w(dot) cdc (dot) gov (slash) msmhealth(slash)for(hyphen)your(hyphen)health(dot)h t m

This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I saw him on tv in the studio yesterday pretending to be a normal man. The other pundit and the presenter were giving each other looks which meant 'Can you smell stale spunk ?' - 'Yeah, he must have farted' etc
When i saw his face on this video he looked sad, it's my impression. I read that his ex-wife had 3 miscarriages and she doesn't really want to know about him. Being gay si very hard and sad.
Whoa? Did this comment somehow escape the 80s or 90s?
So I guess you think gays just run around planning sneak anal attacks?
I mean, what did you think was happening the entire time this guy was gay, but just not out, during his 25+ year Rugby career (I'm including school in that)?
Seriously bro, unless I missed the context or you were being sarcastic, this has gotta be the one most immature and misinformed comments around.
@onebadgs400 If being a "sodomite" is really such a serious fundamental problem, then what is YOUR solution? And while I'm here, what is your problem?
@doncastergit Sodomites unfortunately will continue as long as people participate in sexual promiscuity and experiment. Its not natural, not part of our evolution, and has no benefit to society other then self pleasure. My problem with this boy is the disrespect towards the ex-wife. If you want to be a "sodomite" fine. Just don't lead on a woman for years and leave her to fulfill lewd sexual acts with boys. This boy did not LOVE his wife he used her. Rugby star or average joe shit is wrong.
Funny that you'd come to site that challenges homophobia only to spew your vile form of hatred.
Homosexuality has been around as long as humans have walked the planet. We need no justification and we don't need to explain it to hateful, ugly people like you. Go crawl back under your rock. Better yet, get some therapy to deal with your anger and hatred.
@calvintoronto lol a homophobe. I do not have to accept your lifestyle. I have not attacked one person posting. I am voicing my disgust at a weak being. Instead of being who he is he paraded a woman around for 30 years to hide his true self lying to others to gain acceptance and influence. Now that its convenient to be gay he comes out. Fuck that shit you should be mad he was not fighting for your cause. Now for an attack. CHOKE ON THE FATTEST DICK YOU CAN FIND.
You are a sad human being. I hope you do get some therapy. It's quite obvious that you have a need to sit in judgement of others. I think you should explore that need since it makes you an ugly person.
ps I don't have a "lifestyle" (a term homophobes use all the time to spew their hatred of gays). I have a life. In fact, all gays have a life. You don't.
Respond with more hate if you want, but I'm not coming back here to check it. Adios, you sad hateful person.
@onebadgs400 I do agree that it's wrong to lie to woman like he had for so many years. But you know what? One of the reasons he couldn't be honest about himself is because of people like you. And "now that it's convenient to be gay"??? Are you crazy!? In what way does being the only openly gay sportsman in a team sport in the entire world count as "convenient"? He had no obligation to fight for any cause, just as black people had no obligation to fight in the 1950's.
@MunfyKun He is weak a boy and he could of come out at anytime. No he found it convenient to come out after he retired. AFTER he made millions and lived a 15 year lie with a woman. You should be outraged. Fuck that. If you believe in homosexuality and its who you are to the bone then fight for the cause. Finally, BLACK PEOPLE HAD NO REASON TO FIGHT! You racist Mother FUCKER!!! don't you dare compare the civil rights movement to the inconvenience of white men and there sexual fantasies.
@thomasf "No I hate that for her. I hate that people get so caught up in a lie that they drag others down with him. But he's human. We all make mistakes. I bet that you are feeling a lot more sorry than you should and underestimating the strength of this woman. Also, you clearly have no soul so.." How can you judge me to have no soul WTF! Hypocrite. Look at all these posts calling this man a hero. Not one comment in support or sympathy for the ex-wife. I guess everyone here supports cheaters
@onebadgs400 He never said that he cheated. It is very possible, and even likely, as closeted as he was, that he never cheated on her. You know you're gay long before you ever have sex, the same (I'm assuming) as with straight people.
@keydet035 Come the fuck on now lets get real. This boy slept around on his wife with other (boys). This boy is having a mid life crisis that's all. Fuck, look at his COMING OUT PARTY video I see posted to the right. I hope the ex-wife has a spend his money party. Finally, No one is gay long before they have sex. You have to try it before you like it. Do people like licorice long before they taste it? Are Bisexual people Bi long before they have experience with both genders? Your logic is off.
@onebadgs400 What he did is between him and his ex-wife. I'm just pointing out that that was never mentioned explicitly. If she's okay with it, what the fuck business of yours is it? Also, as a gay man who has not had sex or been promiscuous, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Did you know you were attracted to women before you had sex with one, or did you have to try it out first?
@keydet035 "Also, as a gay man who has not had sex or been promiscuous." INTERNET BULL SHIT!!! SO what if you take it in the ass and you don't like it. Are you still gay. Obviously Gareth said ewww every time he had sympathy sex with his wife. As gay as you are if a girl rubbed you off one right now you wouldn't complain.
@doncastergit Nope... just like this boy chose to marry his Ex-wife he also chose to leave his ex-wife to be a sodomite. I actually see this as no different then a man having a midlife crisis leaving his wife for some young piece of ass. This has nothing to do with the Bible just another selfish superstar looking to fill a void. I see a lot of praise for this guy in this post like he is Mother Teresa. What has he REALLY DONE other then say he is gay. Fuck!!
@thomasf Just wondering why it doesn't get better for all others who are bullied. Not just gays. All I hear is self loathing on not only this video but all the it gets better videos. I hear no apology to this man(it's) ex-wife. Sodomites are all the same. When will they take responsibility for there actions?
@onebadgs400: This IS him taking responsibility for his actions. What kind of responsibility do you expect him to take? Every single television appearance/ newspaper article, he continuously apologises and tries to justify the way he feels. Do YOU even KNOW how it feels to be someone who carries feelings for the same sex & be looked down upon? Its easy to sit there and judge others because they you yourself dont feel the pain. An ounce of understanding doesnt cost anything. Good on you Gareth!
@imaanibrown "tries to justify the way HE feels" Exactly selfish. If this boy wanted to fuck around he should of never got married. Boy knew at 17 he was gay. Word is bond and this boy gave a vow to protect and love his wife. Understanding ...feelings SHEEEIT....Mother fucker is a RUGBY LEGEND he is PAID. You can sugar coat shit but its still shit. I hope his EX got half his shit and finds a REAL MAN to piss his money away with. Damn sodomite.
@onebadgs400 You were doing so well until you got to the end of your sentence. Then you showed your REAL reason for hating on this guy. Fucking homophobe...go sort your attitude out and quit watching videos of something you are supposedly 'against'.
1) Just because non-gays aren't mentioned in most of these videos doesn't mean they are being forgotten. This is like saying we are ignoring lung cancer because we want a cure to breast cancer.
2) Gays are approx. 4 times more likely to commit suicide than other. This is because of vicious cowards like yourself.
3) I assure this man has apologized to his wife. And you know... it DOES get better for her because she can now find a man that loves her in ways Gareth could not.
@thomasf Eat a dick sodomite. No one here is attacking "the gays". This shit ain't no different then a straight man cheating on his wife. He is just getting sympathy cause he is gay. Now this woman 33 -34 has to start life all over after what 15+ years with a dude. Thankfully there are no kids involved. What this (boy) did to this woman is despicable. If you can't see that you don't know what personal responsibility is.
@onebadgs400 whats with your attutude! hes helping ppl so they wouldnt make a mistake and ruin someone life by living a lie , he owned up to it he admited that he wasted and ruined 15 years of her life! man st8 ppl ruins each othesr lifes havent you ever been homesick and run into the maury polvich show!
I wonder how many lives could be lived much better if people learnt to accept homosexuality. How many disasters, problems, struggles and suicides could be prevented if only people started to understand what is like to be gay in such society sometimes. We just want to love each other...
I think that these kinds of video are very useful but sad at the same time
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I fucking hate gay people, you queers are gonna ruin the world, stop shoving ur cocks up other guys asses, every faggot needs to go die REPUBLICAN 4 LIFE!!! GOP BITCHES!!!!!
WOW what a testimony! Gareth I didn't know you. I just clicked the video almost unconsciously and was presented with probably the most honest, heartfelt, real story I've ever heard in my life. I mean that from the bottom of my heart. Maybe at forty I will find the courage to tell the truth. Thank You!
It gets "more sinful" and "perverted" in America! Turn to God and repent for this shameful sin. He loves you and can forgive you! : )
Romans 1:26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
@beautifulwhitecat How do you dare say such things? And you call yourself christian? It seems you have no clue of the message Christ brought to this earth and you only read a few convienet passages of the bible. If you believe in that old book so much, so keep it to yourself as well as your wrong opinions.
God bless you Gareth! So glad you didn't hurt yourself. Love you bud even though I don't know you. Took a lot of guts and balls to do what you did. I really admire you for having that kind of courage. You take care. All the best mate. Cheers John
What you do is a real militant act. I'm so proud of you too! You are very helpful to others, young and older who can assume what they really are, thank you! Now if you're single you need a boyfriend, add me on the list! Hugs!
Its good to see that a top player like him came out...cuz ppl can't shut him out if he is still a top performer...more and more, pro athletes and actors and singers, etc will be coming out.
Wow ... just awesome! And you are right: we are all responsible for taking charge of your own lifes. But to do this ... very admiring. You are a true hero and role model, and I wish you lots of success in your campaigns!!
my hero :)

Seriously bro, unless I missed the context or you were being sarcastic, this has gotta be the one most immature and misinformed comments around.

@doncastergit Sodomites unfortunately will continue as long as people participate in sexual promiscuity and experiment. Its not natural, not part of our evolution, and has no benefit to society other then self pleasure. My problem with this boy is the disrespect towards the ex-wife. If you want to be a "sodomite" fine. Just don't lead on a woman for years and leave her to fulfill lewd sexual acts with boys. This boy did not LOVE his wife he used her. Rugby star or average joe shit is wrong.

Funny that you'd come to site that challenges homophobia only to spew your vile form of hatred.
Homosexuality has been around as long as humans have walked the planet. We need no justification and we don't need to explain it to hateful, ugly people like you. Go crawl back under your rock. Better yet, get some therapy to deal with your anger and hatred.

@calvintoronto lol a homophobe. I do not have to accept your lifestyle. I have not attacked one person posting. I am voicing my disgust at a weak being. Instead of being who he is he paraded a woman around for 30 years to hide his true self lying to others to gain acceptance and influence. Now that its convenient to be gay he comes out. Fuck that shit you should be mad he was not fighting for your cause. Now for an attack. CHOKE ON THE FATTEST DICK YOU CAN FIND.

You are a sad human being. I hope you do get some therapy. It's quite obvious that you have a need to sit in judgement of others. I think you should explore that need since it makes you an ugly person.
ps I don't have a "lifestyle" (a term homophobes use all the time to spew their hatred of gays). I have a life. In fact, all gays have a life. You don't.
Respond with more hate if you want, but I'm not coming back here to check it. Adios, you sad hateful person.

@onebadgs400 I do agree that it's wrong to lie to woman like he had for so many years. But you know what? One of the reasons he couldn't be honest about himself is because of people like you. And "now that it's convenient to be gay"??? Are you crazy!? In what way does being the only openly gay sportsman in a team sport in the entire world count as "convenient"? He had no obligation to fight for any cause, just as black people had no obligation to fight in the 1950's.

@MunfyKun He is weak a boy and he could of come out at anytime. No he found it convenient to come out after he retired. AFTER he made millions and lived a 15 year lie with a woman. You should be outraged. Fuck that. If you believe in homosexuality and its who you are to the bone then fight for the cause. Finally, BLACK PEOPLE HAD NO REASON TO FIGHT! You racist Mother FUCKER!!! don't you dare compare the civil rights movement to the inconvenience of white men and there sexual fantasies.

@onebadgs400 He never said that he cheated. It is very possible, and even likely, as closeted as he was, that he never cheated on her. You know you're gay long before you ever have sex, the same (I'm assuming) as with straight people.

@keydet035 Come the fuck on now lets get real. This boy slept around on his wife with other (boys). This boy is having a mid life crisis that's all. Fuck, look at his COMING OUT PARTY video I see posted to the right. I hope the ex-wife has a spend his money party. Finally, No one is gay long before they have sex. You have to try it before you like it. Do people like licorice long before they taste it? Are Bisexual people Bi long before they have experience with both genders? Your logic is off.
onebadgs400 5 months ago
@onebadgs400 What he did is between him and his ex-wife. I'm just pointing out that that was never mentioned explicitly. If she's okay with it, what the fuck business of yours is it? Also, as a gay man who has not had sex or been promiscuous, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. Did you know you were attracted to women before you had sex with one, or did you have to try it out first?

@doncastergit Nope... just like this boy chose to marry his Ex-wife he also chose to leave his ex-wife to be a sodomite. I actually see this as no different then a man having a midlife crisis leaving his wife for some young piece of ass. This has nothing to do with the Bible just another selfish superstar looking to fill a void. I see a lot of praise for this guy in this post like he is Mother Teresa. What has he REALLY DONE other then say he is gay. Fuck!!

@thomasf Just wondering why it doesn't get better for all others who are bullied. Not just gays. All I hear is self loathing on not only this video but all the it gets better videos. I hear no apology to this man(it's) ex-wife. Sodomites are all the same. When will they take responsibility for there actions?
onebadgs400 6 months ago
@onebadgs400: This IS him taking responsibility for his actions. What kind of responsibility do you expect him to take? Every single television appearance/ newspaper article, he continuously apologises and tries to justify the way he feels. Do YOU even KNOW how it feels to be someone who carries feelings for the same sex & be looked down upon? Its easy to sit there and judge others because they you yourself dont feel the pain. An ounce of understanding doesnt cost anything. Good on you Gareth!

1) Just because non-gays aren't mentioned in most of these videos doesn't mean they are being forgotten. This is like saying we are ignoring lung cancer because we want a cure to breast cancer.
2) Gays are approx. 4 times more likely to commit suicide than other. This is because of vicious cowards like yourself.
3) I assure this man has apologized to his wife. And you know... it DOES get better for her because she can now find a man that loves her in ways Gareth could not.

@thomasf Eat a dick sodomite. No one here is attacking "the gays". This shit ain't no different then a straight man cheating on his wife. He is just getting sympathy cause he is gay. Now this woman 33 -34 has to start life all over after what 15+ years with a dude. Thankfully there are no kids involved. What this (boy) did to this woman is despicable. If you can't see that you don't know what personal responsibility is.

It gets "more sinful" and "perverted" in America! Turn to God and repent for this shameful sin. He loves you and can forgive you! : )
Romans 1:26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
