Johnny Weir setting it Straight

Bravo, Mr. Weir. I must admit at first Johnny appeared to be another gen­der bend­ing gay(on ice), but after watch­ing this inter­view it is very clear that Johny is also blessed with a mar­velous mind. Just because you put on a “campy” per­for­mance, and doesn’t mean you are any less of a man. It also doesn’t mean that you are a walk­ing stereo­type as well. Johnny was him­self on ice floor, no one else. Unlike many other peo­ple he isn’t afraid of being judged, and isn’t afraid of being dif­fer­ent. The thing I get from Johnny is live freely, and keep fierce. Not being a man, but being a good man/woman/person is stand­ing up, and set­ting shit straight like Johnny Weir.
