When is the world going to realize that THE MAJORITY of people DO NOT CARE about a person's sexuality! If you're famous...we don't care. If you're a coworker...we don't care. The ONLY people that want to share it are the LGBTQ community to make them feel "special". You're not special.

I don't go to a music concert to hear about people's sexual journey of any kind. It is not the time nor the place. I don't care what you do behind clothes doors....nor do I share what I do.

aren't you people getting it? nobody cares about what your preference is. just like nobody cares about my preference. if nobody asks you, why are you trying to push it in anyone's faces? it is not a shooting the breeze type of conversation.

I support everyone’s right to be whoever they are BUT, folks aren’t there to hear about your queer journey. Sing. That’s all you’ve got to do, sing. Post about your journey on your social media or on a talk show. People paid good money to hear you sing!! Not everyone is about the same things you are. The one thing y’all had in common was music so, do that!!

Why did he even bring his sexuality up? When are people going to realize that maybe it's better to keep your private business private? Why does the world need to know everything about you?

Seriously, you can live however you’d like. If you’re charging someone for a specific good or service and they pay for it, they’re not asking for any extras. Same thing happened when pro athletes knelt at sporting events. Offer a concert and call it “a musical journey to myself” or something. Then, at least, people will not be feeling ambushed.
