Gay Tim Cook

I could see someone being proud to live in a society where they are not afraid to admit who they are. Not very headline friendly though.
Wow. I'm surprised at the unenlightened responses to this issue.
I say good for Tim Cook. And fuck any one who doesn't like apple because of it. So many smart artistic progressive people r guy and r making major contributions to the rest of us humans.
And it's about time major corporations DO start to take a stand on moral issues and ALL important issues of our time.
Good for Apple. As well good for Costco for paying great wages and giving good benefits. Good for Elon Musk for Tesla cars, space exploration and acknowledging global warming and other scientific issues of our time. Good for Starbucks for providing health care to all their US employees. . There r too many miseries in this world. Nice to see some good guys stand up and get recognition one in a while.

Now all the Chinese women under his serf labor are screwed. A Gay man has been enslaving women in China that could make babies.
Worse, I like two Chinese girls together....and a gay man, Tim Cook, has been fucking me up the ass with his Apple shit keeping me from getting
laid by two girls. Well, fuck him.
LOL
Gyaos.
It's not peculiar to say, "I'm proud to be Gay". After all this time hiding and being ashamed of his feelings it's good he can be honest and openly proud of who he is. A straight person never had to make this declaration.
It's one day. Any market interaction will not be apparent yet. I'm sure you will remember how Apple was pummeled after news was released that they were loosing market share to Android. Things take time. Nobody knows what the impact of Tim's weaving his sexual preferences into the Apple corporate identity will do.
Pride is the opposite of shame, so many live in shame I think Tim was taking a stand that there is no reason for that shame - I say good on him, and when Larry Page or Zuckerberg's wife comes out I'll say the same thing.
I'm saying it's not an issue of pride or shame. If you make one valid, you automatically validate the other option.
By all means, be proud to stand up for gay rights. But pride in being gay doesn't move the issue forward in a meaningful way.
I wonder if it is good business to mix business with morality. I know that is something that governments do, especially the municipal government of Toronto. For example, I heard that Toronto only buys trains made in Canada even if more expensive and only gives contracts to companies that overpay their employees like Toronto overpays their employees. Doesn't make business sense to pay more when the same service or products is available at a lower price.
Nobody has ever been shamed and brutalized for being straight.
Theoretically it is nonsensical for someone to be "proud to be gay" but given the context, it means "I'm gay and there is nothing wrong with it despite what a lot of ignorant haters would have you and I believe"
Saying you're proud to be gay will make it easier for others to come out and show us they are normal people - moving the issue forward in a big way. Hiding isn't healthy.
Russian iPhone Monument Gone After Apple CEO Tim Cook Comes Out
Like I said - in the business world - you separate the corporation from your own personal interests. It is not an issue of being Gay - it is an issue of tangling your personal interests with the company image. It is unfair to shareholders who are backing a business.

Wish the same advice applies to my needs for
therapeutic relief from the kinks in my neck and legs plus
harmless HJ. Hiding isn't healthy but the shame of being
a hobbyist is more devastating.
The most surprising thing here is that Samsung hasn't come out as saying they are even more Gay and Google hasn't said they've always been gay, in fact they are promiscuously gay without protection....
Obviously like most other large international corporations - they are a little more business savvy that to peddle morality issues.
