Apple CEO, Tim Cook Coming Out


After Steve Jobs died if pancreatic cancer, Tim Cook, became a new CEO Of Apple Inc., told everyone that he is gay.



 < Tim Cook & Steve Jobs >







Last Oct. 30, Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook confessed that he is a gay through his article on a weekly economy, “Business week”, whose title was “Tim Cook Speaks Up” Many celebrities admitted they are homosexuals in the meanwhile. But, it’ll have a great resonance that a man as a CEO of the company which come into the spotlight, outed as gay.






He said,"I am proud to homosexual characters. Many co-workers know I'm a gay, and I don't think that they won't be a change in the way on the ground of sexual orientation..

A Russian politician said. “Tim Cook’s entry must be stopped. And Foreign Policy reported that China internet was fiiled with comments to laugh at him.










I, writing this, don’t agreed with homosexuality. But, leaving pro and cons about it, we should think and take time for self examination:’How often have we listened to minorities’ opinions?’, ‘How much have we considerated of positive discrimination?’, and  ‘How much and how long have we understand other people who have different thoughts and behaviors from me,
