The Reality Of Homophobia In Sports


Australian hockey star Gus Johnston steps up and speaks out against homophobia in sport and discusses his experiences - “After many years of competing in hockey at an elite level, I’ve decided to share my story and experience with homophobia in sport. It’s taken me many years to find the strength to share it, but I hope that people find value in hearing it.”


Gus, the power of your message comes from its honesty. You are an inspiration to everyone - gay or straight. There are so many of us that at some point in our life go through immense stress and suicidal thoughts because of the homophobic culture we live in. Thank you for sharing your story.
