I personally think Henderson is a worse person for that. Gerrard hasn't been for or against a sensitive subject like that so if he goes to SA for lots of money, fine, I still think less of him. In my opinion, Henderson is held to higher standard because of his public support for LGBTIQA+.

I'm simplifying but it's like seeing the average joe driving a Hummer and then Thunberg driving a Hummer. Obviously we'd think much less of Thunberg.
