Okay, however this story goes, seems to me we’re now talking about race identity identification rather than religious or sexual orientation.

Seems to be like a coming out of the black vs white closet and here’s a conversation no one ever picked up on although we are all painfully aware of a famous superstar who went through that transition in public yet – OMG – the taboo subject of could this be real ended up under the covers for fear of stirring up the race issue.

So… having seen Michael Jackson through his transitional phases from a kid to a superstar and having been dinged and screwed left right and center, then labeled and then left hung to dry seems like a no brainer in terms of this subject matter.

In my opinion the subject is open for discussion and let people decide. Personally I don’t see this as an issue for those willing to help a social cause.

End of my opinion.
