I want to take part in Mr Gay Europe because I want to mean something in this world. While I was a finalist in Mr Gay Belgium, I started a project for sport clubs. Together with the city councils sports department in Vosselaar, my hometown, a charter/engagement was written that could be endorsed by supporting sports clubs. By doing that they send a message to their members that everyone is welcome and they would respond to unwanted verbal assaults. Even those that seem irrelevant as you for instance often see with children that yell ‘gay’ or ‘faggot’ not realizing that they are actually swearing. There is still a lot of work for the LGBT-community in the sport world, so with Mr. Gay Europe I hope to take my project and attention for LGBT’s in all sports to a whole new level.
