MinggHate on him for photoshop all you want. Bashing him for being gay is different and really fucked up. Gus isn't my favorite by any means, but god damn how do you expect people to take something like that lightly? A "normal" person shouldn't have to put up with that and neither should he.
CrotchKillerLol, who takes insults that involve number of followers seriously? Makes you sound like some meme posting Internet bitch not a professional fucking skier.
I can't believe someone is vain enough to read through all the comments on their pics and then retort to somebody who is obviously trying to get you heated.
.lenconI've never liked Gus, and never will. I don't care if he's gay, straight, black or purple. He's a douche and a baby.
inb4 he gets on NS and apologizes and says it's because hes gay.
gkenworthyAgree, commenting back and making fun of the kids who were making fun of me probably wasn't the most professional, or the coolest thing to do. However if I hadn't said anything it's not like there would have been a thread that said "Mad respect for Gus Kenworthy for not responding to trolls?" No. Nobody cares. I ignore the bullshit negative comments 98% of the time, I delete them, sometimes I block the kids and it's fine, it happens, I get it. But sometimes it's just super uncalled for and it gets tiring. If someone talked shit to you on one of your profiles you would comment back. Yeah, I may have a lot more followers since the Olympics and coming out but this is still my personal account and I see all the comments, for better and for worse. I posted a photo of a friend standing in the mountains. It had nothing to do with my sexuality, it wasn't rude, it wasn't arrogant or disrespectful or anything else that would warrant flack. I should've blocked the kid and moved on but I felt like responding. When I was 15, all I wanted to do was be a pro skier. I had TJ and my favorite pros as my top friends on MySpace, I know that's lame, I repeatedly watched their video parts and contest runs. I had cut outs and posters all over my room. I drew pictures of ski jumps and companies' logos. I was a fan. I was excited. There was no Instagram or really much of anything to help connect me to them like there is now but if there was I wouldn't have ever dreamed of trying to talk trash to them. I am not asking for any compliments or validation or anything like that. You don't have to be my fan and you don't have to follow me but I'd like to be treated with the same respect you would like to be treated with. End rant.
