There are specific sports designed for gay men such as ballet, figure skating, and diving. They have no business playing real sports.

Same sorts of tghings were said in the 1940's leading up to Jackie Robinson playing. White players would leave, white players wouldn't share the locker room, etc,.
I think the big differences now would be the 24 hour news cycle and the "watchdog" agencies that would monitor every second of every game. If Jackie were breaking the color barrier today, people would be watching his playing time, when he got pulled in a game, all the good stuff. Yes, percentages say that there have been many gay players through out sports history, just none who have come out during their playing career. It will be rough for the first few who do come out but eventually... |
