LOVE IS LOVE

sueclough1: @Charliecondou hi, my 10yr old son constantly gets bullied for being 'gay' in school, cos he's not like the other boys. He takes pride in his appearance and is sensitive. He doesn't think being called gay is an insult, he loves his step-uncle who is gay. His thoughts are love is love regardless of being a man or woman. I love that he's so secure in himself and I love his spirit and soul and am very proud of him.

Charliecondou: @sueclough1 it's amazing how many kids get bullied for being gay when they aren't!!

sueclough1: @Charliecondou I'm very proud, firstly that he doesn't see being called gay as an insult and secondly that he doesn't change to fit in!

Charliecondou: @sueclough1 good for him x

SPEAKING OF BEING GAY

Charliecondou: RT @Alt_Parenting: Gay parent @CharlieCondou joins us to speak about being a gay dad, and the importance of education in stoping homo-phobic bullying

Above: Another of my ultra rare shots of Charlie Condou. This one was taken on location on the banks of the Thames in London in 2011 when the Corrie team were shooting the episodes for the return of Marcus Dent (Charlie Condou). It would appear that Antony Cotton is advising one of the twins (that play his on-screen son Liam), where to walk to hit his mark and so forth...
