I agree with Alia, the fact that he is in charge of a gay rights group makes his crimes even worse because this enforces negative stereotypes, and is a flagrant abuse of a trusted position.
I don't think there was any intention to claim he committed these crimes because he was gay, which is an absurd suggestion for anyone to make.
How about I make a bunch of threads with titles like "Straight man **** little girl" or how about "Straight man **** little boy".
I wouldn't have a problem with it. If they are straight, and you're just telling the truth, what would be the issue?
Don't Omit, but don't highlight. Use common sense.
