Honoring Those Who Died In 9/11 Will Be Different This Year

It seems as though everything that's happening this year is different, and now this. 

They won’t be the packed, lengthy events of anniversaries past, but organizers of 9/11 memorial ceremonies near Shanksville, Pa., and in New York City say they’ve worked to preserve the solemnity and dignified grandeur of such a significant occasion — even as they try to keep audiences safe from COVID-19.

I'm not going to try to analyze all the inconsiste...

Ukrainian Church Leader Who Blamed COVID on Gay Marriage Gets COVID; Ryan Field Books

Ukrainian Church Leader Who Blamed COVID on Gay Marriage Gets COVID

I've posted before about the two gay men I once knew who were living secret double lives. Half the time they were telling everyone they were a gay couple in the printing business, and the other half they were leaders in the Catholic Church. One was actually a bishop and the other a monsignor. And articles like the one I'm linking to right now just show more irony, and how out of touch these older church leaders truly are. They do...

 Todd Chrisley Defends His Daughter, and the Troll Calls Him Gay

I have seen this often lately, especially with a certain politician I won't mention by name. They have a "gay" name to shame him with, and they want to refer to him as gay...even though he's never officially come out of the closet. 

Here's why. There are straight people out there, many of whom call themselves our allies, who actually believe they have a right to either out us, tell us we're gay, or offer their highly unsolicited opin...

 A Big Penis Flash, East Enders' Return

Sometimes these thing just happen and it's really no one's fault. Penis can be tricky that way. 

THIS Morning viewers were stunned today as the show accidentally showed a nudist's penis.

Here's more. 

The link is actually part of The Sun's celeb news section and they mention something about East Enders the TV show. 

How Men Feel About Their Penises

This is sort of related to the article above, but it's more in depth with regard to how men actually feel about the...

Gay Dating in the Time of COVID

Here's another one of those articles about hooking up or dating during COVID. I've seen a lot of them, both gay and straight, and most of them offer fairly decent advice. I also think they help people figure out what's okay to do or not to do. They provide guidelines, if you will. It's not easy anymore. This article actually is focused on Philadelphia. We live about 45 Minutes north of Philadelphia in New Hope, Bucks County, PA and we haven't even been there for an...

Homophobia and Transphobia on TikTok 

This is about people calling out homophobia and transphobia on TikTok, and I have seen some of it myself. 

Some of his videos, however, feature reactions to LGBTQ creators. He has a shocked expression when men put on skirts, when a man sucks on a straw, or when trans people reveal transformations over time.

There’s more here. It’s a lot more complicated. TikTok is one of those social media places that you have to experience first hand to fully understand.

Gay Couples and Open Relationships, Ryan Field Books

 Gay Couples and Open Relationships

I've known many long term gay couples who are and were in open relationships and it's always worked for them. Most are open and honest about it and they love talking about it. Not all gay couples do this, and that's important to state, but for those who do it usually works out just fine. 

More than 30 years have passed, and the world of gay male relationships remains pretty much the same. Working as a psychologist for the past 25 years, I’ve listened to hundreds...

Canada's Chief Medical Officer is Now Telling Us How To Have Sex During Coronavirus Sex Time

Well, I guess this has been long overdue. I'm stunned I haven't seen it sooner. Canada's Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Teresa Tam, is now telling us how to have sex. All of us, not just gay people either. 

And, get this, she believes getting off solo is the best possible solution. 

Skip kissing and consider wearing a mask when having sex to protect yourself from catching the coronavirus, Canada’s chief medical...

Crafty Dr. Anthony Fauci and Claims of Rewriting and Whitewashing AIDS History

I don't remember this in exact detail, which is why I'm linking to something that I believe to be accurate, but I do recall reading about certain issues with regard to Dr. Anthony Fauci during the AIDS crisis in the 80s. But again, I was just too young to know anything exact. 

This article dates back to 2017, long before there was a COVID crisis and long before Dr. Fauci became a household name. It talks about how he ha...

Child of US Gay Couple Who Was Born In UK Is US Citizen; Ryan Field Books

Child of US Gay Couple Who Was Born in UK is US Citizen

This is interesting form a legal POV, with regard to gay people having children. A gay couple from Georgia had a child with a surrogate from the UK. And even though the baby was born in England, a judge just ruled that the baby is a US citizen.

U.S. District Judge Michael Brown wrote in an order issued Thursday that the girl is not required to be biologically related to both of her U.S. citizen parents to be eligible for citizenship.

Here's ho...
