I think coming out, for me, is really about tearing down the prison wall.

I think outing people is fear-based: the fear that if we don't out them, it will make things harder for all of us. It's important to treat people with love.

For me, the litmus test to know whether or not I'm doing the right thing is to examine whether my decisions are love-based or fear-based.

I had an amazing experience being on a hit show for Showtime, doing 'Queer as Folk', and impacting things socially, like helping change hearts and minds. It's such a big chapter of my life.

Freedom' is my big buzzword in life. It's just my favorite word. And I think so many of my choices have been about gaining freedom.
