Congratulations, Ricky!!!

Not that it's much of a surprise to most people, but the eminently lickable hunk of Puerto Rican yumminess that is Ricky Martin has come out of the closet. I could not be happier for him, nor for his children, who will now grow up with a father who is proud of who he is.

truth is beautiful, no?

Martin has posted a letter on his website that discusses his choice to come out, as well as the timing. My heart is just bursting, people. There is very little that makes me happier than seeing people embracing and celebrating their sexuality.

I hope his actions lend strength to others feeling as though they must live in fear and secrecy, and that this is another step on the road to the full acceptance and integration of homosexuality into our society.

Well done, Ricky Martin. Congratulations and well wishes!!
