Missing my point entirely.
If no one is out there to relate to, it's harder to get by. It's possible to get by, yes. But it's comforting to see someone out there like you. If a gay kid is struggling with his sexuality and admires you, don't you kinda want to give them the assurance that they'll be okay and get to the place you are?
It is no one else's business. Totally. But if you can do some good by being out, why not be out instead of not saying something that's been completely obvious for 15 years. I think that is iSm's point that it comes across as shame. If it really was no big deal for Miss Jodie, then wouldn't a big "yeah I am, so what?" be more appropriate?
