I've been reading this book for a couple days now, and I'm impressed by the various stories of gay athletes around the country. I was surprised and fascinated that in most of the cases, the teammates really didn't have a second thought on their fellows' sexual orientations. In my day, about 6-8 years ago, it was very much different. I don't know how much times change where I live, but I wouldn't be surprised if the climate in the locker room is a bit more tolerable for gay athletes.My one problem is that many of the subjects being interviewed were asked that their name be changed or their last name not be used. This indicates to me that they are still very uneasy about their openness towards their teammates and perhaps still a bit ashamed that they came out in the first place. If your friends and teammates do not judge you by your sexual orientation, then in my opinion there's no reason to hide your identity behind a pseudonym.Good read still. Thanks.
