I'll admit the kiss makes me uncomfortable. I am completely, 100% behind the idea that people should be free to live their lives in whatever way suits them. I just don't particularly like seeing men kiss. But, you know, that's me. That's my sexual preference and my ingrained bias for what's 'normal' slipping through my rational mind. And I recognize that. At the end of the day I completely support the guy's right to live his life the way he wants, and if he wants to kiss a loved one on tv then I say more power to him. It's not any different than another player kissing his wife or girlfriend. Hell, if it was an WNBA draft and two women kissing, I'd probably stare at it gleefully (were they attractive ladies, at least).
At the end of the day the problem isn't with Sam, or the gentleman that he kisses. It's with me. They shouldn't stop doing what they're doing, stop doing what makes them happy at a key life moment like this, just because it makes me uncomfortable.
