Apple CEO Tim Cook came out Thursday, announcing that he is gay in a column in Bloomberg Businessweek.
"Let me be clear: I'm proud to be gay, and I consider being gay among the greatest gifts God has given me," he wrote.
Cook has not publicly discussed his sexual preferences before now, despite some rumors and speculation that he is gay.
A year ago he announced support for a federal law which would have protected workers from facing discrimination based on their sexual orientation.
"For too long, too many people have had to hide that part of their identity in the workplace," he wrote at the time.

Since God condemns homosex as a sin we know that he did not give it to you. He gave you a free will to chose the right path or the wrong path. You choose wrong.
Definitely. He won't be CEO of Apple for very long after this.
Different God.
And this surprises... anyone?! It was obvious he was light in the loafers from the first moment he walked out on stage at his first Apple launch event.
Being gay is a gift?!?! LOLOLOLOL! Some gift, since it comes with a very high rate of disease and a higher death rate. What with other people having gifts like musical talent, skill with numbers, or artistic abilities, if all you got is the gateway to aids, I would say you picked the losing raffle ticket.
What a sad day when this Guy(?) blames God for for his perversion. Who does he blame for the death of his people from Aids disease????
What, the same God who said to not lie with a man as one lies with a woman, since that is an abomination?
Deviants like this ultimately worship themselves, placing themselves above God and giving themselves full authority to indulge in sinful lifestyles that Scripture warns about.
Many of them probably don’t even realize that they’re doing this, but that’s what it is: they’re following their own decrees just as an atheist would, but they’re attempting to cover it up with a veneer of righteousness.
YAWN!!!
...In other news that nobody cares about, scientists are still puzzled as to the function of the uvula....
It seems the only thing left is a gay US president.
I think the problem has been no one cared about the level of depravity of people who have become leaders in industry, government and cultural issues. What they think and do in private eventually seeps out into what they do in public. Compartmentalization is a myth. Homosexuality is disobedience to natural law. They say they are born that way. If that is true then why must they teach it to children in school and indoctrinate the courts with it. Right thinking people when they are given enough information will not support something that goes against natural law. Now watch the Apple stock tumble.
William you are my new hero. Brilliant point of view.
It’s always the same with these people - Whhhaaaaaa! I want ATTTTEEEENNNTION!!!!!!!
By the way Dallas, those are GORGEOUS pictures on your FR about page.
I agree.
I’m sorry. I’m not sure I’m understanding your question, but if it helps, a point I’m making is that, had there been a more objective and rational public debate on the subject, instead of simple verbal tug-of-war where each side uses its own rope, their media campaign would have had less impact, because it would fail to sway people who were better informed.
Why is he talking about his sexual identity in the workplace? The workplace is not the appropriate environment for that. Just stupid.
He sees an apple shape in his backside.
Seriously, who DIDN'T already know this?
Great post.
