The way our society decides to try and label everything certainly doesn't help. Why should it ever matter who someone finds attractive? Surely it is who they are as person that should be the only concern

However it always seems to end up being anyone a bit different has that label shoved in front of them. I mean, how many times do you see 'gay celebrity' when referring to people like John Barrowman or Graham Norton, or similar for Martina Navratilova

Just because someone is gay or straight or whatever, doesn't mean they can't be a complete-something-which-the-filters-on-this-forum-would-stop
You're absoloutely right Ben. We have moved on since the 60s/ 70s when some celebrities would hide their sexuality for fear of the negative effect it would have on their career but we've still got some way to go.
