Coming out was quite awkward for me but it was also a big relief because I could express how I really felt about myself. People have been very supportive and non-judgemental which has helped my confidence. Over the years I have been able to be more open with people and feel less afraid of being gay. I couldn't have done it without my friends.

oh rob this one brought back a rush of memories, both good & bad. altho i lived pretty brave in some ways back then, compared to other gays of the time, i still share the same regrets as you. My hope is that i can help others get to a place in life that they dont make the same "mistakes" as us. self hate is our communitys cross to bear, that self love & acceptance can overcome. 1 LIFE

Thank you, Rob. You continue to make a difference in a lot of peoples' lives, whether you ever meet them or not.
When you think about it, that's pretty amazing, isn't it?

You Will Martin.

Clinton can have anilingus performed on him by Monica Lewinsky in the White House, and most people are willing to look the other way, especially after he denied ever having "sexual relations with that woman" (true if the definition is intercourse). But my straight associates acted to interfere in my business deal with this young person because they assumed that i had lured this talented guy into a gay sex trap. When you're straight, you get a pass even if you use your position for sexual favors.
Certainly, during the closet phase & then coming out, being gay becomes a central focus in your life whether you want it or not. It forces itself to the surface where it must be dealt with. Plus, there is another phase shortly thereafter where many intellectually OD on all things gay (our history, our politics, our social interactions, etc.). You feel as if you need to catch up for lost time. But as time passes, those needs become less pronounced & more balanced, allowing you get on with life

I've never agreed more with a video =D.
I like to think of my sexuality as akin to my height. I don't have any control over it, but it can affect my life and is something I need to live with. Imagine if you had to keep your height a secret from everyone. It would be ridiculous and stressful. That's exactly how I felt all the time before coming out.
Thanks for another fantabulous video.
