Also its a very manly sort of thing to do so if it was me I wouldn't come out. Just as if I was a Coal Miner or other sterotypical mans job.

Surely that's the type of stereotypes we'd be trying to break? Though I do know what you mean about it being difficult if you're doing somthing 'manly'. It's why we have no out gay footballers etc. Well that and what happened to Justin Fashanu.
Apparently some gay people don't want to come out for fear of feminising their sport. Things like gymnastics and figure skating have already got a 'gay' reputation and they don't want to add to it.
I just think it's a shame, even though it does give gay rights activists somewhere to focus on.
