“We should be having discussions about gay identity, helping other athletes to come out, being a positive force.

“If you read a story that really involves you, your body will tell you that you are living through the experience. You will recognize feelings that have physical signs - increased heart rate, sweaty palms, or calm, relaxed breathing and so on, depending on your mood.

Amazingly, you can actually 'live' experience without moving anything but your eyes across a page.”
