'No One is Coming Out': "It is completely strange, isn't it? It's all fucked up. Where the hell are all the others?" The Guardian interviews Anton Hysen, the world's only openly gay male professional footballer (via MetaFilter).
Good on him.

It's a shame that in sports there's an even bigger stigma than other walks of life.
Of course I'm also surprised there isn't more media speculation over who is and who isn't. Seems right up the alley of most media outlets.

Perhaps he IS the only one. *sarcasm*
It's funny, I was wondering about gay racing drivers this weekend. I mean as a fan of F1 for 25 years now, in that time there HAS to have been at least one gay F1 driver.
