"As a 29-year-old gay man, I spent the better part of two decades agonizing over that question [Do you like men?] and finally, when I was 20, came to accept that the answer was 'Yes.' It took another two years before I could tell my family, another year after that before I mustered up the courage to tell my closest friends and, well, six years after that to finally write about it in the Chicago Tribune."

With these words, Chris Hine, the Chicago Blackhawks beat writer for the Chicago Tribune came out publicly. On our podcast, we discuss the trigger for his going public.
