Who stands to benefit from outing a public figure though? Nobody, really. Best case scenario, said politican resigns and is replaced by someone who isn't gay who continues said policies. That still inflicts pain on the community as a whole because it reinforces the fact that there is a certain Way to Be Gay. You don't have to be out to be gay.
