197. so is it that you want to punish them?
trust me....i have known enough closeted and out gays to know that if there is anything harder than being gay it is being gay in the closet.

come on...this isn't rocket science here. closeted gays can never come close to any sense of normality....not even gay normality. ask any gay in the military if they'd prefer not to have to hide their sexuality. would they like a picture of their lover by their bunk?
would they like to share a love letter with their friends like the straights can? share their memories and plans? and their term in the closet is generally finite and not all inclusive. nothing like a gay in the closet as we are talking about.

the concept of being in the closet as a sheild may apply to a tiny fraction of their life but in exchange, think about what they give up.

now think of what demons move them to stay in the closet.

if punishment is what you desire...leave them in the closet.
