[quote]The star the upcoming X-Men: Days of Future Past made the announcement in a moving and deeply personal speech delivered at Time to THRIVE, a conference to promote the welfare of LGBT youth held at Bally's Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
"I’m here today because I am gay," Page, 26, told the audience "And because maybe I can make a difference. To help others have an easier and more hopeful time. Regardless, for me, I feel a personal obligation and a social responsibility."[/quote]

I'm sure the fantasies will still be there, just a bit... different.
Am I the only one that had a feeling this was the case?
This makes Beyond: Two Souls more awkward than it was
I confused my Ellens for a second there and thought this was news from '97 :v:

Doesn't homosexual mean sexually attracted to man? Hence "Homo" and "Sexual"
And no one was surprised.

[QUOTE=arbio22;43917474]Doesn't homosexual mean sexually attracted to man? Hence "Homo" and "Sexual"[/QUOTE]
Uh 'homo' means same, implying attraction to the same sex in the context of homosexual, so no, it really doesn't...
seriously

man i remember middle school.
Wasn't this obvious
[QUOTE=arbio22;43917474]Doesn't homosexual mean sexually attracted to man? Hence "Homo" and "Sexual"[/QUOTE]
no it means same, as in homophone. whereas homo sapien is latin, homo in this context is used in the greek sense of sameness.
[QUOTE=Primigenes;43917498]What is this guy even doing[/QUOTE]
He just made a simple linguistic mistake, give him some slack.
hot
not to mention homo in latin just means human

this is the best post ive ever seen
[QUOTE=arbio22;43917474]Doesn't homosexual mean sexually attracted to man? Hence "Homo" and "Sexual"[/QUOTE]
homosexual means attraction to the same sex (homo means 'same' in this context)
heterosexual means attraction to the opposite sex (hetero means 'other' in this context)
Am I the only one who knew this years ago? She's been out of the closet for ages, I don't know how this isn't more publicly known.
... Although fair enough she doesn't make a big deal about it in public. This is the first time I've seen her advocate for gays rights in the States though.

Wrong language. "Homo" in Latin means "man", while "homo" in Greek means "same". "Homosexual" is Greek.
Why do celebrities.. and there for... anyone, need to "come out" publicly? I thought the LGBT wanted to be treated as equals to everyone else? I personally have a friend who i know is homosexual but he only tells people he trusts and such. Me and him have had this conversations before about this and we both agree that making your sexuality, whatever it is, a big deal by announcing it just ruins the point of equality. She should have just wnt about her own buisness instead of trying to draw attention to herself and to her "cause". Yes, LGBT equality is something worth fighting for, but this just isnt an effective way, at all in doing it. This is just attention whoring.
Thats my opinion though. If this somehow does help, then im okay I guess, but i just know it doesnt. Meh, maybe im just upset because its valentines day and im not thinking my argument clearly through, but i do have a point I feel like.
Maybe :(
