    Everyone saying things like "gay or not, hes beautiful", "even tho he's gay, I/he still ____", that's not okay, though you may think it is. When you say something like that, it's like you're saying, "despite this one bad thing, he is still great," but being gay isnt a bad thing. It's not something that needs to be excused or forgiven, he just is. Plain and simple. Just say he's handsome, say you like him, say he's your hero, it doesnt matter. "Gay or not" doesn't need to be at the start of every one of your compliments or remarks. He is who he is: a human. Dont treat him any differently.

    Wentworth Miller is so much more than I ever thought. He's not just another pretty face. To look at him, you would conclude his life was charmed, he never had a worry in the world, that everything was handed to him on a platter and that he has never had a single solitary bad moment or thought. We all have a story and I am happy Wentworth opened up and can tell his story without shame or fear of discovery, sorrow and guilt and fear of what others think. The thing we don't realize in fearing other people's opinions about us is that they have their own story.

      My life partner struggle(d/s) with depression and suicide.
      Of Wentworth... I'm just so glad he could get to the point he's at - that he made it past 15 and found he could be a part of a community, that he wasn't alone.
      Some very important people in my life share in similar struggles and I don't know what I'd do without them. It's hard, but I'm glad he (and the people in my life) have grown and survived through it to this day.
      Thumbs up to Wentworth and a digital handshake. Well done.

      When I went to Adam Lambert's concert in my country, religious people protested outside the arena with pictures of him kissing another guy, they threw his pictures on the ground and then stepped on his face. I went home that night and cried for him... Even now as frontman of Queen, countries are still trying to put a ban on him. It's all ignorance, blind hate and bully's attitude. When asked about actions as such in interviews, his replies were never harsh, he's always classy. He desensitised, educated and changed people's perceptions about homosexuality, fans learned to accept and embrace him.
      I have been a fan of Wentworth's since Dinotopia. When I heard his speech here, I cried for him.... I commend his honesty and courage to put himself up there and out there to educate and be the pillar of strength for all who feel that they are different and alone. He smashes all stereotypes many have on gay people. He showed us that there are amazing talents, intelligence, gracefulness and class, cool people, love and diversity among those who are gay. What I find ironic sometimes is religions teach us to ostracize and hate gay people, but gay people teach us to love instead. Ultimately, we are all human beings, we cry the same tears, straight or gay, no difference.

This man is a hero not only to the LGBTQ community, but to all who have suffered from depression and battling their inner demons. He is beautiful inside and out, and I am so glad to see him playing such a prominent role in Hollywood; breaking down barriers and forever being such a brace individual and being the hero that we all need.

    This speech was really moving! He's one of my favourite actors and God I hope that he will make one more movie... just one!
    He is so beautiful, and I didn't really expected that... he is really a rolemodel!

    Mr Miller is such an inspiration. So proud of him for coming out. Although I'm not a member of the LGBT community, like Mr Miller, I'm biracial and deal with mental health issues and his honesty regarding not only his existence as a gay man but also his biracial heritage and his own mental health issues makes him one of my heroes. Bravo Mr Miller, you have no idea how much you've made a difference.

    Impressive, i takes courage to get naked so openly. And the best part, not a single time does he try to depict himself as a victim or as a hero.
    He's got class and his class doesn't come from his flawless DNA but from his obvious intelligence .
    And what humility .
    Beautiful speech

He's my idol.

    He is my inspiration...
    Posting things on facebook, his willingness to be open in interviews and his overall attitude towards his past and his career and his fans (me being massively included) is what helps me through my own mental health problems and reassures me that you can be a role model even if you sometimes feel broken... I love and respect him more than most...

    This speech will never not be important. I discovered it when i was 14/15 myself - im 21 now and every single word is so damn important. Firstly, cause it showed my 14 yr old self that i was not alone in my suffering, that there are people feeling the same way and coping in the same way, and secondly, cause it helped me see that nothing is more important than to help others, to be the help i myself so desperately needed when i was younger. I knew this speech by heart and repeated it like a mantra as part of my own "survival mode". I love this man and i am glad that i discovered his speech just to the right time.

    When I first heard that Mr. Miller was a gay man, I was a bit sad. Only because I had watched prison break and loved his charachter. I don't know him personally. I had no right to be sad. That passed quickly as I realized that this was his reality. I am very proud of and happy for Mr. Miller to finally be free from the oppression and fear. For becoming a part of something much larger than himself. I pray he has found peace, love, and acceptance. Something every person deserves and is entitled to. I identified with some of what he said. Not because I am gay, because I am human and grew up in a nightmare. Always being and feeling alone. Humans are the cruelest of all life forms on this planet. Good luck to Mr. Miller. Thank you for sharing your story with us.

I am 56 and know that once you rationalize checking out that it does not go away. I came to terms with that option when I was 12. I am still here and I hope you will be too. I can find real joy and happiness in helping others. It's when I focus on myself that I get in trouble.
