Matthew Mitcham

In a move that surely has adoring fansaround the world crossing their fingers, gay Australian Olympic diver Matthew Mitcham tweeted that he would dive naked if he wins gold at the London games:

Though Mitcham — one of the few openly gay athletes competing in London — has generated quite a stir with his covers of “Single Ladies” and the “Family Guy” theme, this stunt would surely take the viral cake.
Sadly, as the sports news aggregation site SB Nation notes, “Mitcham has been fighting an abdominal injury and the 10-meter field is stacked.”
The Men’s 10-meter Platform competition is today and tomorrow.  Good Luck, Matthew.

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's. My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces. View all posts by Joe
