It's been common knowledge "SULU" is gay for decades.. this isn't news. He must have decided to "come out" because he was the only one left who didn't know.

Next thing you know Kevin McClatchy will "come out"..

I've come to the conclusion by the time folks "come out", everyone already knows.

It just makes sense. A star ship crew needs someone who can keep Klingons off Uranus.

I don't buy it. Sulu is clearly rejecting the captain Kirk's advances here:

This was a as much a surprise as when Jm J. Bullock "came out". If he was in the closet, it was a glass closet. When is Chekov coming out?

Somebody should tell actors not to do this.

I liked the Sulu character.
And now I like him less.

Shut up and act.

In the next Star Trek movie, Sulu needs to be "the guy in the red shirt".

Well, at least thank God it wasn't Kirk "coming out".
That would knock the planets off their axis or something.
