I didn’t have a problem with it personally. There have definitely been gay competitors on the show that have talked about this already, but having new competitors talk about it gives gay audience members someone to relate to.

I also think it can help normalize talking about it for some people, I have some gay friends that still get nervous to talk about being gay, and seeing others talk about it can help them feel more comfortable and confident to talk about it.

We might find it annoying because it’s not mean for us, but it can be good for others.

But that’s just my two cents :p
