Why does he think we need to know this? To provide him an out of some sort? No sale, Scott.

I agree, when someone announces this out of the blue it’s usually as an excuse to justify something they’ve done and about to be exposed.

I dont care.

If it happened, he has my empathy. I dont know why this is relevant to his job.

Other than trying to get my sympathy, I dont know what he would expect me to do with this information.

I am so sick of everyone being a victim.

Or is planning on doing something reprehensible.

Either way, great point.

Ready the victim card.

There is a difference between homos and pedophiles. The counselor was a pedophile who liked boys. Lots of pedophiles like girls so are not homos. I had the misfortune to meet one when I was 7 years old. He did not do me physical injury, but the fear, shame and embarrassment about what did happen is still a vivid memory 65 years later. Is this TMI, huh, huh??? Just be glad you don’t have such memories.

Hey Scott read Dr. Lauras’ “Bad Childhood, Good Life” and move on.

Wow, really surprised to read some of the comments on this thread.
It's not his fault he was abused by an evil pervert when he was a kid.
That kind of thing can be really harmful to it's victims. It sounds like Mr Brown has done a good job of not letting it pull him down later in life.

Is Brown all set to go on The View, Oprah, and Ellen DeGenerous? Will this be a LifeTime Movie or an in-Depth look at the situation on PBS?

Doesn’t this sort of thing negate all the rhetoric about how gays don’t target heterosexuals?

I guess people become liberals when they discover that bad things happen to good/innocent people. After all, conservatives KNOW that people with problems have brought them on themselves.

The timing and venue of his announcement is suspect.

Have you ever been to a Turkish bathhouse?
