President Barack Obama has become the first sitting US president to grace the cover of an LGBT magazine.

贝拉克·奥巴马（Barack Obama）总统成为首位在任期内登上LGBT（同性恋、双性恋及跨性别）杂志封面的美国总统。

In a photoshoot and interview for Out Magazine, Obama was named 'Ally of the Year' for his efforts on the "right side of justice" in supporting same-sex marriage.

在《Out》杂志的摄影和采访中，由于致力于支持同性婚姻、站在“正义的一方”，奥巴马被提名为“年度最佳盟友”。

Editor-in-chief Aaron Hicklin wrote of the top entry in Out's list of 100:

《Out》杂志主编亚伦·希克林（Aaron Hicklin）为这位在《Out》杂志百大名人榜上拔得头筹的总统写道：

"A president who came to office on a wave of euphoria, appeared to lose momentum¹ halfway² through... has since rallied, helping³ us secure marriage equality, among other landmark⁴ initiatives that are transforming our place in America."

“一位在狂热支持下入主白宫的总统，似乎在中途势头减弱……稍事休整后，他帮助我们实现了婚姻平等，并推出了其他改变我们在美国社会地位的里程碑式提案。”

In the accompanying interview Obama said that the first openly gay person he remembered meeting was a college professor who was an inspirational figure on campus for gay and lesbian students.

在一同刊发的采访中，奥巴马表示，在记忆中，自己碰到的第一个公开同性恋者身份的人是一位大学教授。在男女同性恋学生心中，他在校园里是一个励志人物。

"...Keep in mind, this was 1978. That took a lot of courage, a lot of confidence in who you are and what you stand for."

“……要知道，当时可是1978年啊。（公开自己的同性恋者身份）需要对自己是谁、自己坚持的立场有极度的勇气和自信。”

The president also said that the US is committed to promoting LGBT rights abroad.

奥巴马还提到，美国致力于促进国际上同性恋者、双性恋者和变性者的权利。
