Skylark I am assuming we live in the same state, and based on geography, people are a hell of a lot more likely to be out and safe where you live, than where I live (except for Moscow proper). With that said, if Craig does not believe he is gay, why would he come out and be a gay rights champion? I am not sure if you came to Moscow for your JD or went elsewhere, but even in somewhat safe environments, such as the University town and the Boise Treasure Valley area, people who are gay may not openly identify as such, so why would a public official who has shown from his allegiances and voting record that he is not supportive of anything that isn't family values centered suddenly be leading the Boise Pride Parade?
Someone quoted a Dave Chappelle episode, and it may be tacky and out of place, but sometimes "a mouth is a mouth" and that goes along with what KSigRC mentioned in regards to Dan Savage. Some people are just opportunists and gender isn't an issue as to with who they get their freak on.
