“Hey, I am not given a name. Human is human. It’s doesn’t matter which side you attracted to and It doesn’t matter which skin color you have. Human is human. All of our blood is red.”
“I don’t want to call it or give a name. Gay sounds too hard. I support you, if you want. But I am not homosexual,” Barthel further expressed.
When asked if he would be comfortable if the outlet would say, “Timo Barthel isn’t gay or straight or any other label. He’s human and supports everyone,” the Olympic diver responded:
“Yes this is good (with a praying hands emoji).”
