90 Year Old Grandfather Comes Out As Gay
90 Year Old Grandfather Comes Out As Gay
Here’s another late in life coming out story for a gay man. It’s not something unique either. Just try to imagine how many never did come out.
Felts, who now lives in Arvada, Colorado, told CNN that he's known he was gay since he was 12-years-old. But he said he made the choice to conceal his sexuality,

Russell Tovey and a Sexy Short Film
I love short films like this. And I think this is why I love streaming so much. We have access to things like this now.
A reader tipped us off to this new short from director Joe Ingham, a sort of collage film about the late artist David Robillard.
Here’s more. You can watch a video too.

Paul Rudd and Steve Coogan Play Gay Face In Movie "Ideal Home"; Stereotyped With the Gay Ken Doll; Ryan Field Books
Paul Rudd and Steve Coogan Play Gay Face In Movie "Ideal Home"
These two straight actors, Rudd and Coogan, who are both open about the women in their lives, play some serious gay face in the movie "Ideal Home." I caught the movie the other night on Amazon streaming and I watched the entire thing in full. Rudd and Coogan play a wealthy middle aged gay couple who pretty much portray almost every gay stereotype there is. I know this because I'm gay...not fake gay...and I've been married to my husban...

Oprah Winfrey and the Book Caste

Such high drama! Unfortunately, the book could be wonderful. But ...

Kevin Hart Defends Ellen
Someone is finally standing up in public in support of Ellen DeGeneres.
“I have known Ellen for years and I can honestly say that she’s one of the dopest people on the fucking planet. She has treated my family and my team with love and respect from day 1. The internet has become a crazy world of negativity….we are falling in love with peoples down fall. It’s honestly sad…When did we get here?”
Here's more. He's right about the Internet. It can be such a nasty place.

One of Two Gay Men to First Marry In Illinois
Here's a sad story about the second same sex couple to marry in Illinois. But it's also very endearing.
Mr. Ilio and Ron Dorfman got married in December 2013 in a ceremony that was moved up because of concerns about the health of Dorfman, who wasn’t expected to live long enough to see same-sex marriage become legal in Illinois in June 2014. Dorfman died about two months after exchanging vows with Mr. Ilio.

Gay Canadian Man and Police Discrimination; Trans Woman Targets Gay Men at Gay Bar In Washington, DC; Ryan Field Books
Gay Canadian Man and Police Discrimination
Unfortunately, this sort of thing has been happening to gay men for many, many years. The allegations of discrimination and abuse that can sometimes happen with the police and gay men is not something new and I've personally experienced it myself on several occasions. I think things have changed for the better in the last ten years, but not totally. Especially if allegations like this are still happening.
