So many gays, lesbians and bisexuals athletes are forced to compete in sports in the closet but when they come out their world is uplifted. For example Esera Tuaolo, and NFL foot ball player states, “he felt the burden lifting off of him and feeling light as a feather but jumping on a scale and weighting 300 lb.” Although this was a serious matter, Esera announced his coming out process in a joking manner. He wanted to show how happy he was after that process. Athletes that are gay, lesbian, or bisexual, should not worry about their sexual orientation and how it is view in society. They should be honest with themselves and their teammates because it will form a more cohesive team and trusting relationship within the group. Coming out is a difficult decision to make so their teammates will realized how hard it must have been to be in that situation. Athletes should really take it into consideration because coming out will produce a greater level of happiness and satisfaction with life.
