The Real World DC Cast: Meet Mike

Are there any gay cast members in this season of The Real World? Gay, no, but bisexual (is that pretty much the same thing), ka-ching! Mike Manning is an All-American kind of guy with a twist, he likes twist...? Anyways, check out this guys bio and his video clip, which...explains his lifestyle.

In high school, Mike was the typical jock...a star athlete, prom king, popular with all the girls...an all around golden child from a Christian family. But that's where the stereotype ends. Mike realized several years ago that, for him, love knows no gender. He dates guys and girls, and is still questioning whether he's bi-sexual or gay. Mike comes to DC to be an environmentalist, but unexpectedly finds the inspiration to help advance marriage rights for gay and lesbian Americans. His sexuality has caused some tension back home, and it's his time in D.C. that will prove to be the turning point for him and his family in terms of accepting him for who he is.
