Frankly, no one expects any less from him, any Apple thread is like catnip to him.

If he is, Apple needs to invent a male-to-male connector for their Lightning bus.

People who feel they have to 'announce' their sexuality are clearly demonstrating how unsure they are about it.

For normal people, their sexuality is part of their private life, and they don't need to grandstand about it for attention.

I disagree. When society advances and matures to the point where one's personal sexuality is of no effect or consequence to any other aspect of life, then "announcement" would neither be needed or symbolic of any significant event.

Advances to the point where no one feels the need to scream their sexual preferences from rooftops. This "persecution" of gays doesn't exist. Weird and gay doesn't have to go hand in hand.
