Cusack stands up to homophobic bullies
The Cork hurling goalkeeper, who disclosed he was gay in his 2009 autobiography, is supporting a week-long campaign in schools and youth organisations to stand up to homophobic bullying.
“There’s a certain amount of stigma still associated with the subject — you still hear some kids using terms like “that’s gay” or “faggot” in a derogatory fashion. I think people should think carefully about what they are saying and think again as to why they’re using those terms,” said Donal Óg.
