Olympics again

is there any olympic winner whose medal got held back because he or she was gay?

Answer #1

no in fact some of the greatest gold medalist have been gay…greg louganis and carl lewis

Answer #2

Not that I could find.

Of the 13 out lesbian and bisexual women competing at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, six ended up taking home gold, silver, or bronze medals.

(The Games’ sole openly gay male athlete, Australian diver Matthew Mitcham, took home the gold in the men’s 10m platform.)
