Not sure I agree. A high profile famous person coming out may help other people who are wrestling with similar problems in their own lives. |  |

and you have just 'coincidentally' turned up... how odd, or not as to the use of admit or announce it perhaps relates to how you see Scofield stating that he is gay I suspect his wife was well aware of his sexuality, and also aware of what it might have done to his career especially as a children's TVpresenter ie Gay = paedo but now you've had your little rant Jerry do feel free to go back in the closet, or whereever it is you lurk maybe even under the bed, as used to be the place of a Jerry |  | |  |

Saying "I'd have a constant hard on" sounds like something Jay from the Inbetweeners would say. But it's from someone who isn't a pubescent teen and 15 years later when LAD culture has rightfully been lobbed in the bin where it belongs for the most part. |  |

A gay children's TV presenter = a paedophile? Blimey. |  |

The 1980s were a different time when it came to public opinion (at least among the tabloid press). |  |

that was, and still is, the thinking in some quarters and when you have a PM who talks of 'tank-topped bumboys' and a former shadow home secretary still extremely homophobic you might understand why some 'celebs' and sports people might feel it was/is best to not 'rock the boat' so to speak |  | |  |

Sadly that's probably true. On the positive side, the fact that suggestion feels so absurd now is reflective of how far society has come on in a relatively short space of time. |  |

It's still present in many nations sadly. I've watched a couple of documentaries about the struggle of being open or closeted gay in Russia and the general homophobic opinion is they engage in sex with children. Sigh. |  |

"lying to" is a bit harsh. Sounds like he's been "lying" to himself in the first place. Not sure any of us who haven't been through it can imagine the difficulty of coming out as gay to family, friends and society and the pressure that puts on people to perhaps even suppress it for themselves. |  |

You probably want to consider who you're hanging out with then if they would commit common assault over a joke. |  |
