Exactly WHY would you feel that it was appropriate to "blurt out" that information? Question for gays - why is your sexuality the prime determining factor in who you are? Why is it so important? I'm heterosexual. It's a part of my life, but not THE defining attribute of my life. It plays no part in my work at all. Never once in an interview did I feel a need to blurt out, "Man, do I loves dem wimmin." So why is it so all-fired important to be identified as a gay man, instead of just a man?
