Waiting for a gay superstar? Her name was Martina Navratilova, one of the top three women's tennis players ever. She was #1 when she came out way back in 1981, when it was much less of a welcoming environment for anyone gay. Do men never tire of thinking that the only important events in the world are done by men? You already have your groundbreaker in Martina. That there hasn't been a man as brave as her is pretty damn weak for the so-called "stronger sex". When you think of who has come out in sports and entertainment, the groundbreakers are almost all women. A little respect is due. They're the ones breaking the closet door down for you. Walk through it already, would ya?
