CGiii Comment

After a myriad of daytime TV & Reality show appearances...Gareth and his sexuality get yet another documentary.

This really tells nothing that 'anyone interested' didn't know already. Gareth is an affable chap...he played rugby, he came out...

No disrespect intended...but, these celebrity 'outings' are all very similar...

Those who were never in the closet just get on with it. But, it's sport...that last bastion of homophobic Alpha-male heterosexuality...do these stories help in any lasting way to change things? If they do, keep on making them. If they don't, what's the point!

One day, hopefully, in the not too distant future, these 'outings' will no longer be newsworthy. Until then...expect a few more 'revelations'.
