That was the headline on a BBC news article.

Gay wins 100m race? Damn you, “conservative media”. The fact that someone is gay or not is completely irrelevent!

It’s attention-grabbing headlines like this that breed intolerance. First this headline, next month some highschool running coach is shouting to his students, “Come on all you heteros! Run like there’s a penis up your bum!”. It’s the only logical end to it.

But why is it that a headline like THAT is appropriate? “Jew wins swimming”, “Black Guy wins rowing event” - none of those headlines are appropriate!

Putting a headline like THIS out into the world is just plain irresponsible.

Oh… the man’s name is “Tyson Gay”… well… carry on then
