Given the ntroversy, Gay participated a rad terview wh Tom Joyner to clear up the misnceptns surroundg the weddg ceremony.

Gay noted that the weddg was not meant to be affiliated wh Kappa, spe the aterny's crimson-and-cream lor scheme. To Gay, the weddg lors were tend to reprent love and his hband's favore lor (red), not Kappa. Gay also noted that the image of him photographed wh his pledge brothers, performg their signature hand sign, was not tend to nvey a "gay Kappa weddg.

Most gay members feel nsc of their stat wh the BGLO, and many feel unfortable around heterosexual members. To fight the stigmas attached to homosexualy, many gay members feel that they mt validate and thentite their masculy so that other members regard them as "te" brothers.

It wouldn't be surprisg to fd a sizeable portn of heterosexual black aterny members who believe that gay members should eher be expelled or have their nduct regulated (or to have gay aspirg members refed membership). For those foced on the argument that BGLOs were found on Christian prcipl, homosexualy is nsistent wh biblil teachgs.
