They should be in the same house with the same athletes representing their country.

^^ Agreed. I think this is a bit of a waste and really hinders our approach to include people from all cultures/backgrounds/and sexual preference. Why do we need to separate them? They're normal people just like anyone else. We shouldn't have to draw attention to the fact that they're gay because it's just not a big deal. What are they expected to do there anyways? Chat about gay issues??? Watch queer eye for the straight guy??? Talk about taking a step backwards.
