It would be good if you could talk your mates into not being homophobic, too. Then maybe things might change.
I dunno about this pic.. It feels a little bit contrived. I wish and hope this image's meaning could be accepted on the foot show. Rather than just on this site.
kudos to everyone else too! great job. no. amazing job! :-)
Credit where credit is due. The AFL has taken positive and affirmative action. Vollyeball NSW has actively supported Freezone as a G&L club, Waterpolo NSW have stood up for the Stingers, the ARL have supported the Sydney Convicts, the World Masters Games was a sensational outlet for Gay & Lesbian sports people.
Let us not just talk the talk; but ensure that our teams, team mates and officials are aware and actively involved in the removal of intolerant behaviour from our beloved sports venues.
Thanks ACON for this initiative.
I was loving these pics, and trusting in their sincerity, until I saw this.
Unbelievable - this guy has done a great thing here but its still not good enough? Any wonder people are the way they are then , why bother when your STILL going to get flamed? lesson to other Celebs thinking about being involved - think twice cause you might still cop it, better off sitting on the fence and staying out of it!
anyone who has ever watched the Footy Show will know that this photo is blatant hypocrisy - the show promotes homophobia. it's not enough to pose for a photo shoot - try walking the walk.
He didn't HAVE to do this you know.
