In a way agree with every view I've seen so far, I think it does matter he came out and that bit lil quoted makes it matter slightly less, because it's much easier to come out in his position. It's still very helpful for gay people though, for many reasons sourced from all over the comments here.

So my answer to

    Can a rich powerful person's coming out make a difference?
is yes.

However, [this](www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/2krtf0/apple_ceo_cook_comes_out_im_proud_to_be_gay/) I found is completely irrelevant, Tim cook coming out has nothing to do with technology, big news maybe but it's comparable to putting a note saying "My dog had puppies!" in a Customer Suggestions box at a chip shop.
