Pro Wrestler Comes Out as Bi
Edited on Wed Mar-31-10 06:47 PM by Ian David
Pro wrestler Orlando Jordan came out in the ring Monday night ... sort of.

Jordan, a new fixture in the Total Nonstop Action wrestling league, was tied up in caution tape as he was lowered from the ceiling to the wrestling ring. He then slithered off the mat onto a couch, where he sat between a man and a woman. Behind the couch was the tricolored bisexual pride flag.

Not sure if the actual dude is bi, or if just his pro-wrestling character is.

5. This Is Still Offensive.

I doubt professional wrestling is capable of handling "bisexuality" in a mature and responsible manner. This is all about exploitation. And the way in which he was apparently "presented" confirms my theory.

7. I don't know, they don't treat heterosexuality in a mature or responsible manner
so I'm not offended. :P

8. Hetersexuals Are Legally Discriminated Against.
But I get your point nonetheless. :thumbsup:

4. video on youtube - as long as it is there
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOTroOzIgYc

the 'reaction' from the commentators doesn't feel contrived at all - not a single iota

6. Is he bisexual like Elton John was?
A sort of half-admission that he's gay, figuring people might accept that first so he can come out later...color me cynical.
