Uganda President Signs Anti-Gay Bill that May Call For the Death Penalty
There are some countries in Africa that are so painfully homophobic they criminalize us to the point of the death penalty at times. Awful, horrible backward uneducated places that are allowed to get away with these things.
The President of Uganda recently signed one of the world's most dangerous anti-gay bills into law. They're calling it the Anti-Homosexual Act of 2023.
Ugandan Parliament speaker, Anita Annet, praised the ...

Gay Man Has Sex With Straight Guys, Ryan Field Books
Gay Man Has Sex With Straight Guys
This is something that happens quite often, and it's been happening since the beginning of time. While the good Christian mom is out there bashing gay men and calling them "groomers," her husband is lurking on the down low with gay men doing all kinds of things.
I'm linking to a story now where a gay man who came out at 14 years old talks about having sex with straight guys...or at least guys who identify as straight...and his sexual super power. I'm not joking...

Councilman in Surf Side Beach, SC, Allegedly Makes Creepy Comment
There's a town in South Carolina called Surf Side Beach. A councilman there recently said something on social media that has caused backlash. The councilman, Michael Drake, commented on the Target fiasco that's been making news lately.
Apparently, Drake posted a photo a two gay men getting married and one of the gay men wasn't too thrilled to see his image posted in that particular context. (I thought we all needed permission to p...

Gay Rights Group Issues Travel Advisory for Florida, Ryan Field Books
Gay Rights Group Issues Travel Advisory for Florida
I've come across gay people who don't think there's anything to worry about with regard to what's happening in Florida. But from what I see, personally, on social media...especially Twitter...the hate for anything LGBTQ runs deeply these days. And it's with certain groups. Usually white, straight, and Christian.
With that said, here is a warning about Florida that was issued by a Gay Rights group.
The group isn't calling for a boycott or anythi...

On Being Transgender, Gay, and What's In Between, Ryan Field Books
On Being Transgender, Gay, and What's In Between
Here's a personal piece by a guy named Harry Nicholas on what it is like to be gay and trans. He actually wrote a book about it and I believe it is the first of its kind. But I'm not totally sure about that.
In any event, the focus here is on trans man instead of trans women. And admittedly it's not something I know that much about. Here is one thing he says that I'm constantly trying to reinforce as a gay man. Not the sex part, but the fact that ...

Jesse Tyler Ferguson Talks about Gay Content in Modern Family, Ryan Field Books
Jesse Tyler Ferguson Talks about Gay Content in Modern Family
Tony and I never watched the TV show Modern Family. At the time, as a long term gay couple, we found nothing with which we could identify. The gay characters reminded me of gay men pretending too hard to be straight and mentioning nothing about real, honest gay culture. And we weren't the only gay couple who felt this way. We also felt that the gay content in Modern Family was geared toward a straight audience and that bored us and so...

Florida Investigates Teacher Who Showed Disney Movie With Gay Character
With the way the don't say gay laws are set up in Florida now, this was bound to happen. A school teacher who showed a Disney movie with a gay character is now under investigation. It harkens back to the says of the pink triangle and Adolf Hitler.
And why is the teacher under investigation? Because some student's Christian mother complained. Apparently, the teacher, Jenna Barbee, thought the film was focused on our relationsh...

Doctors who Hate Treating Gay People In Florida, Ryan Field Books
Doctors who Hate Treating Gay People In Florida
What's really kind of ironic about all this is that in many parts of the country...like where I live in Palm Springs, CA...most doctors are gay. Men and women. A few are even trans doctors. The new President of the AMA is a gay man. My own nephew in Ann Arbor, Michigan, is a gay man and a doctor. All of my doctors are gay. I didn't plan it that way either. It just happened.
So the people in Florida who think otherwise really do need to get out more...

Hannah Gadsby Tricks Christian Baker into Making a Gay Wedding Cake, Ryan Field Books
Hannah Gadsby Tricks Christian Baker into Making a Gay Wedding Cake
First of all, this is not something I would ever do. We purposely got married by a Vermont Supreme Court Justice, Beth Robinson, in a gay friendly Vermont B&B. And our wedding cake was baked by a gay man. I'd never trick anyone into baking a cake for me and I would hope they'd never do that to me as well. I fully understand the point behind this, but I also know more than a few excellent bakers who have no problem baking gay wed...
