52. no, but the point is, the person had that chance
In most cases, a closeted gay person isn't really fooling anyone, but that person is still allowed the freedom to move about and advance in this country as long as his/her sexuality isn't expressly stated. Is that fair? Hell no, but the point is, at least most gay people have that choice.

In our country's history, a black person couldn't even think about running for president. Things are changing now, but the country overall is still too prejudiced.
