Lately, more celebrities have been coming out or being open about their sexuality. We like this trend and we hope its pushing for  more acceptance and equality for the LGBT community. Cara Delevigne has been out as gay for a while but in the meantime rumours have started swirling around that she’s dating Selena Gomez after they were seen showering together on a yacht.

In case you didn’t know those rumors have since been cleared and they are in fact not dating although Selena admires and does have a great appreciation for Cara.

The really good news is that Selena has reached out and admitted that even though she has dated some of the top males in her industry that even her gay male friends are jealous of. Everyone can appreciate a beautiful person.

Selena talks openly in an interview with LGBT Outlet PrideSource about her relationship with Cara and the fact that she didn’t mind the gossip. There is nothing wrong and even with little notions like that we are shifting in the right direction.

She also talks about how in the past she has questioned her sexuality which I believe is an important stepping stone to growing up and exploring. She has said, “I think it’s healthy to gain a perspective on who you are deep down, question yourself and challenge yourself; it’s important to do that,” Gomez stated.”

Role models that are in great support of the gay community but don’t step in its way. If young people in the closet are feeling ashamed or unsure viewpoints and ideas as simple and as accepting as this help to open their mind and make them feel safe.

Selena also states that she isn’t focused on dating at the moment and is just taking time to work on herself which is admirable on its own.

Congratulations to Selena for being a great ally to us. Check out other articles on celebrities coming out and speaking out. Come back for updated news on lesbian dating, stories and just general fun.
