Guy Sebastian nearly quit after gay slur
1points
GUY Sebastian has admitted he almost quit the industry after he was subjected to gay taunts and had his Palm Beach house pelted with eggs. The original Australian Idol, who moved from Adelaide with girlfriend Julie Egan after winning the contest, has revealed the abuse from the public almost became too much to deal with. "Someone spray-painted the word 'faggot' on my car,'' Sebastian said. "I grew up playing footy, I worked as a forklift driver at a warehouse in Adelaide. "I move to Sydney and became a singer and suddenly I was a pansy and getting people calling me 'faggot'.'' Sebastian said he was offended by that word because 30 per cent of his friends were gay.

It’s a bit embarrassing that in this day and age someone is automatically thought to be gay if they show any signs remotely resembling lack of masculinity. I’ve known straight guys who do ballet and gay guys who drive trucks, people are individuals and stereotypes don’t really work too well.
