Oh, Icebreakers..!
Sometimes we do have that 'gay moment'.
No matter how long we've been 'out', no matter how self-assured we are, no matter where we are. Going 'public' with our sexuality the way a gay skater would, when he skates with another man (which IS the most natural thing for HIM) could surely feel like absolutely unexplored territory.
It's brave. But it should not be…
XOXO
P.S. I think I need to go to the Gay Games. Wanna go?
I like the sensuousness of the two men as they dance; it looks very natural and lovely.
ReplyDeleteWe have a photo in our home office of two Latino men dancing the tango and I get the same feeling from that ... just lovely.
xoxo
It's fantastic!
DeleteAnd it looks natural to us because that's who we are. We rare used to being with another man....
And I love photos of men together.
XOXO

ReplyDeleteWhen your first thought is, "How many bullet proof vests can you get?" Can you imagine??? So many out skaters and still nothing has changed. Solo skaters are accepted, but not pairs. THIS is why the Gay Games are needed.
XOXO
I't's absolutely frightening.
DeleteIn many countries, these men would risk their lives. Especially Russia, where many compete.
XOXO
I love to see same-sex couples in skating or dancing competitions! A great video documentary, thanks for posting it!
ReplyDeleteSame!
DeleteAnd you're welcome! I thought you guys would enjoy it.

ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful piece. The stories and emotions are touching. Yes, to them it felt completely normal. Unfortunately this can only happen at the Gay Games. I wish I could say that in my lifetime this would be universally accepted.
XOXO 👨🏼❤️💋👨🏽
I wanna go to the Gay Games!
DeleteSo many talented sportspeople! It's a loss for the sport not to have them as they are supposed to compete.
XOXO
That was nice. Their symmetry was amazing.
ReplyDeleteIncredible.
DeleteThese are great skaters. The movements are so fluid. I always think that when some sport looks easy it's super difficult.
XOXO
Grâce sur la glace :)

DeleteI think it's that combination what makes this documentary so special...
