“I do support domestic partnership. I think that gay marriage [sic] is something that should be between a man and a woman.”

“Men shouldn’t feel like fags just because they want to have nice-looking bodies. Another thing: Recently I posed for a gay magazine, which caused much comment. But it doesn’t bother me. Gay people are fighting the same kind of stereotyping that bodybuilders are: People have certain misconceptions about them just as they do about us. Well, I have absolutely no hang-ups about the fag business; though it may bother some bodybuilders, it doesn’t affect me at all.”

”I actually think these kinds of shows [like ‘Queer Eye for the Straight Guy’] that are sort of in-your-face are gonna pass eventually because as gays and lesbians gain greater and greater acceptance in America they’re going to be accepted as human beings and these shows are going to lose their shock and novelty value.”
