Anytime I see an article about someone being the new highest-ranking gay general/CEO/politician/sports star there is always that prefix: openly. We only know that they're the highest-ranking openly-gay. There may be others of even higher rank, still in the closet.
Some are hiding from others. Some are hiding from themselves. All are hiding. They shouldn't have to. Someday, I hope that we'll see headlines that don't need the qualifier of "openly" because no one will need to hide.
Maybe even better would be when such headlines don't even happen at all because no one will care if someone is gay.
