Quote of the day – Ricky Martin “I was an anti-gay bully”
“I was very angry, very rebellious. I used to look at gay men and think, I’m not like that, I don’t want to be like that, that’s not me. I was ashamed.
“When you’re told you’re wrong by everyone, from society, from your faith – my self-esteem was crushed. I took my anger out on those around me. I look back now and realize I would bully people who I knew were gay. I had internalized homophobia.
“To realize that was confronting to me. I wanted to get away from that.” – Ricky Martin, speaking to GQ Australia.
