As someone who gets to bring joy to others daily on tv, it's been ironic that I don't experience it as much as I'd like. I advocate mental health for all and a part of that is self transparency. In doing my work, I've come to see a few truths, one of them being that I want to be free to love whomever I want. This truth makes me Pan and part of the lgbtq+ family. It's scary as hell to say out loud but here it is. The people I admire the most are the ones brave enough to be themselves unapologetically. This shouldn't shake anyone's world, but if it bothers you at all, that's your business:) I was so afraid of having my manhood questioned, but screw that. A "real man" in my eyes, isn't afraid to be honest and happy. From now on, I'll be over here living my best life! I love you @Mandietaketa @Maile Masako @Jason

    Cool, it’s nice when older people come out because it’s a sign that times are changing for the better, despite the right trying to shove everyone back in the closet.

    I just feel bad that people go through so much of their life suppressing an important part of themselves, it really is a kind of deeply personal theft committed against them by the people in their life who kept them pushed in the closet through explicit or implicit bigotry. Such a waste of life that could be lived happier.
