Pro wrestler Anthony Bowens has come out for a second time, taking to social media to share with fans hat he identifies as gay, not bisexual, as he'd stated previously.
“I identified myself as bisexual because I didn’t really know much about the LGBTQ community. I didn’t dive into it much because I was closeted. So the closest thing that I knew, that I could relate to based on that period of life, was bisexual.”
Bowens, who runs a YouTube channel with his partner Michael Pavano, further explained his decision to clarify his sexuality in a vlog.
"Everybody has their own way of figuring things out, and if that’s something that they want to do, then that’s completely okay," he said.
"Please don’t be a hypocrite. I think it’s very hypocritical as people who identify as LGBT - who get judged by a lot of people about our lifestyle - to then turn around and judge others in the same community. I just don’t understand why that happens or how it happens, so please don’t be one of those people."
He added: “I’m in love with Michael, I want to marry Michael, I picture myself being with him for the rest of my life. So the term ’bisexual’ just felt less and less [like] me as time went on.”
