"You know...I was not able to vote for Prop 8 because I'm not a resident of Los Angeles but I would have loved to have seen it (go) the other way. Human rights is human rights and I don't really see how sexuality parlays into whether or not you're a human being," Cook told Logo's NewNowNext.

"I grew up in a really cool area of the country where tolerance was kind of the norm. I can't recall at any point in my life ever feeling uncomfortable about sexuality whether it be my own or anyone else's...It's an interesting time to be a homosexual in this country. I hope that very soon we get to this point where we look back now, [like] on women's rights and that struggle in the 20's - I hope this is another hurdle this country can overcome really quick."
