If you watch women’s sport - in particular football/soccer - you might think that sport is super gay. Sam Lewis, president of the Flying Bats Sydney football club, talks about how progressive women’s football has become these days. But as Ian Roberts explains, even though he came out in the 90s, men's sport continues to be filled with homophobia and fear.
The bats really is a chosen family... we do help each other out in times of need and difficulty, and we also wrap around each other in times of joy and celebration.Sam Lewis, President of the Flying Bats
The positions that women athletes are taking publicly to support the Queer community is extraordinary.Sam Lewis, President of the Flying Bats
Being gay is a gift to other people, when they learn to embrace it... they become better people.. that's what I always say. It's my superpower.Former Rugy League player, Ian Roberts
