Very nice. I hope more atheletes follow his example.
Have any athletes here in the states done a video?

I didn't hear what he said... I was too busy staring at him. :)
Seriously though... important message and he has always been a huge advocate for the community (and as a gay rugby player - it really does mean alot!)
As if I couldn't adore him anymore!
He said he has a wife and twin daughters so I don't think he's gay.
He seemed really shaken up by all this news.
On a side note, did anyone else find his voice really soothing? I know that's a weird thing to say given the context of the message, but it was really calming.
It is soothing. I wouldn't mind him reading me a bedtime story.

I thought Urban meant that he was a gay rugby player, not Ben.
Ben only is when I close my eyes and . . . dream.
Hes a really nice guy as well, very sweet and very kind hearted. And yes he is very outspoken about gay issues, it's a shame more are not like him.

Yes, to clarify, I myself am a gay rugby union player.
Ben, while totally dreamy, is totally straight.

Great message, a fine example for so many of the lunkheaded pro jocks in the states. And I guess wearing a shirt was appropriate, considering the content of the video.
That's more affecting and heartfelt than most of the official "It Gets Better" videos.
I agree with all of you. Very heartfelt message. And his voice is very soothing. And he's totally smokin!
