THE GAY MAN'S GUI TO ATRALIAN FOOTBALL'S HOTTT HUNKS
Alai Uned midfielr Josh Cavallo hop more profsnal footballers will follow his lead and publicly announce that they’re gay. Cavallo on Wednday beme a rary profsnal sport: an openly gay male athlete.

OPENLY GAY MALE PLAYERS WOULD BE WELED THE AFL: SELWOOD
“Growg up beg gay and playg football were jt two worlds that hadn’t crossed paths before. There are so many different typ of sexual orientatn om heterosexual through to asexual, homosexual, bisexual and more. 2% of the adult populatn Atralia intified as homosexual or bisexual.
While beg the face of a gay movement might sound good theory, when ’s your face and private life splashed through the media, ’s a lot to take .
'I'VE HAD TO MASK MY FEELGS': A-LEAGUE PLAYER OUT AS GAY EMOTNAL SOCIAL POSTS
A gay AFL player might prefer to stay out of the spotlight to avoid placg their reer the media’s hand.
In 2019, the fullback ma an anti-gay ment on social media (not for the first time), statg that gays will go to hell. While Rugby Atralia acted the right manner and termated his posn, shows we have a long way to e before beg gay is accepted. If beg gay don’t affect their performance (which clearly don’t), then why is somethg they should have to brg up the first place?
While would be nice to live a world where people don’t bat an eyelid about beg gay, we’re not que there yet. While we have e a long way when to LGBT rights, we still have a long way to go towards equaly and breakg down barriers and there’s no way of predictg the effect of g out gay. 6) Homophobic slurs.
ANDY BRENNAN IS FIRST MALE ATRALIAN FOOTBALLER TO E OUT AS GAY
The biggt ncern for many gay athlet is how their teammat will see them.
Many gay people fd hard enough g out to their immediate fay. Breakg through gay stereotyp.
If you want to ppot another reason that gay athlet are proment the media, ’s thanks to the gay stereotyp that are monplace society. We have a huge anti-gay history behd , which is still very proment many different religns.
WHICH AFL PLAYERS ARE GAY?
There’s the belief that gay men are weaker than straight men. “Gay is soft”. “Gay is weak”.
