Apple CEO ‘Tim Cook’ has come out as gay. Cook's sexuality wasn't so much a secret. He has frequently joined Pride marches and spoken openly about the mistreatment faced by gay people and he has always firmly and clearly pinned the rainbow flag to his lapel. According to ‘Tom Cook’ he stated that he has been open with many people about his sexual orientation, alot of his colleagues at Apple know’s that he is Gay and that does not seems to make any difference in the way they treat him. But this is the first time the privacy-conscious boss has openly discussed his sexuality, which he said, he considered to be one of "the greatest gifts God has given him". He also emphasized that he doesn't consider himself an activist, but he realize how much he has benefited from the sacrifice of others, Cook wrote in an open letter published in Bloomberg. "So if hearing that the CEO of Apple is gay can help someone struggling to come to terms with who he or she is, or bring comfort to anyone who feels alone, or inspire people to insist on their equality, then it’s worth the trade-off with my own privacy."
