Couldn't have put it better myself Hank.
Being gay is such a small part of what makes me the unique person I am. I don't shy away from the subject if it is brought up, nor do I feel the need to hide in the closet. But I don't make my life revolve entirely around my sexuality either. I'll comment on guys I find attractive (Anderson Cooper being a personal crush for many a year now) but I don't wear it on my sleeve.
It has nothing to do with being ashamed of who I am either, far from it. Rather, I want to be remembered for more than who I sleep with. I am not just Chris the homosexual male....I am Chris the friend, Chris the nature-lover, Chris the goofy clown....I am all of these things, being gay is merely one aspect of the entire scheme.
