Takei Gay

Wow. Just... Well, read for yourself.

LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- George Takei, who as "Star Trek's" Sulu was part of the Starship Enterprise crew through three television seasons and six movies, has come out as a homosexual in the current issue of Frontiers, a biweekly Los Angeles magazine covering the gay and lesbian community.

Takei told The Associated Press on Thursday that his new onstage role as psychologist Martin Dysart in "Equus," helped inspire him to publicly discuss his sexuality.

I'll never watch classic Trek the same way again. Then again, it's once in a blue moon that I watch it anyway, so it won't be that big a chance in my life.
