Boldly Going Where Few Have Gone Before

Yesterday marked another celebrity outing themselves.

George Takei, otherwise known as Star Trek's Mister Sulu, announced that he was a gay man and had been in a relationship for 18 years.

Takei, who from age 4 to 8 lived in a U.S. internment camp, finally felt that it was an appropriate time to come out due to the United States' current political situation. Especially when you consider homosexuality and gay marriage being such decisive issues right now.

Wow. It's good to know that homosexuals last into the 23rd century! There's hope for us yet.
