We have no current openly gay/bi male footballers in Scotland. We rely on the few straight footballers - standing up to homophobia and toxic masculinity - and being a loud and proud ally. ⚽️

There are currently NO, zero, nil , 0, openly gay footballers currently playing in the men's game in Scotland. The elephant in the (very small) room is toxic masculinity. It's rife. Toxic by name and toxic by nature. Hopefully things will change. ⚽️ 🤞

I firmly believe that every interaction matters between each other when it comes to preventing suicide. Each YP who has died by suicide at Polmont will never be forgotten. As a society, our justice system should reflect our preventative approach at all stages.
