"It's not easy" he says.
"No it's not. But, it's not easy being gay either." I say.

You'd think a gay guy would understand this. Apparently, he has a great family, supportive friends, and wonderful co-workers. But is it that easy to be gay?

That must be hard. Telling people you're different. That you're not the "norm". That you're not what 95% of the world is. You're that 5%. Nobody wants to be different, odd, unusual..do they?
It takes guts, it takes confidence, commitment. You'd think a gay guy would understand that.
