I think what **Esco** wants is for **all** team athletes to stay in the closet and shut up about how they are gay, so that he won’t have to worry about sharing a locker room with them. That’s actually almost exactly what he said in the [other thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=16442215&postcount=378): > [@Would you be comfortable sharing a dressing room with a gay person??](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/would-you-be-comfortable-sharing-a-dressing-room-with-a-gay-person/662005/378): > > The problem I have (and some of my teammates also have) is that with this gay movement, they’re all starting to come out of the closet. It wont be long before every gay pro athlete comes out, and then what are we gonna do??! Shower with these guys??! I dont think so!! I’m not sure why he thinks he’d be showering with a professional athletic team, though. Maybe it’s just something he likes to fantasize about. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/would-you-be-uncomfortable-sharing-meat-space-with-troglodyte-homophobes/662073)._
