He only came out as gay yesterday, but already Zachary Quinto has inspired another public figure to follow in his footsteps.
ABC News anchor Dan Kloeffler, reporting on the actor's candid weekend interview about his sexuality, revealed he too is gay as he joked about dating Hollywood star.
Both men have said they decided to speak out after a spate of teenage suicides among gay youth.
Kloeffler's tone on air was light-hearted. 'He's 34, I'm 35, I'm thinkin' I could lose my distraction about dating actors for that one', he mused during his World News Now report on Quinto.
Kloeffler later explained on the ABC News website: 'For the same reason that Zach decided to come out, I too, no longer wanted to hide this part of my life.
'As a journalist, I don't want to be the story, but as a gay man I don't want to stand silent if I can offer some inspiration or encouragement to kids that might be struggling with who they are.'

when you refuse to go to a priest for confession, you force the rest of the world to listen to you.
So much for his relationship with Uhura, "My attraction to a female has become... illogical."
It’s the same reason they change any terms that have negative connotations -
they intend to deceive, and any term that becomes associated with the truth, they will reject.
It’s perfectly understandable in the Cosmic Battle big picture - their ideology comes from the father of lies, so the light of truth is their enemy, and so is He that represents those things.

A teenager?! HA, When I turned around on the first day of school and saw Gerri O’Conner’s face I knew what I liked.
Why do queers always insist on telling everyone about their perversion?
Because they want public approval for being turned on by a man’s hairy butt, and to normalize same.
What you do with Mr Happy is your own business & no one else’s.
I long for the days when we didn’t know who or what other people were having sex with, and dammit, we liked it that way!!
What “spate” of teenage suicides?
Is it just me and my hubby that think Shemp has lost weight and isn’t looking too well?
Hubby says he probably has AIDS.
Well there was this girl in kindergarten that smelled like hotdogs and I really liked hotdogs....
—What spate of teenage suicides?—
Search “it gets better” in youtube and you’ll see. It is a quiet epidemic. At least, it is to them.
cripplecreek, I, too, am an ardent heterosexual, and I wonder if you’d be my sponsor for when things get, a little... ya know... hard to handle? Maybe a tag team sorta thing for when I’m really struggling?

I think it’s about time someone started a “Gay Nobody Comes Out” ping list.
But this ping list would work differently: people on the list will have their accounts blocked from all posts devoted to narcissistic nobodies announcing their perverse proclivities.
Alternatively (no pun intended), Mods could banish the DU trolls and the zotted to a ping list where the only thing they are allowed to view on their account are such articles. ‘Course, they might like that.
