Success and the closet.

So goes the first line of the study: "Young sexual minority men might cope with early stigma by strongly investing in achievement-related success." One such young man says it's accurate for him also.

Sort of can make one rethink about some fellow acquaintances. The study seems to mention negative health consequences which the op-ed does not get into.

Sorry the tax payer subsidized university research costs $ to access. Also, where does Jason Collins and his Stanford/NBA player story fit here?!

Also hoping no one views the post as anti-homosexual, which I'm not in the slightest. It just goes to showing how powerful a thing discrimination is and how it prevents individuals from being who they are.
