Another Democratic Presidential Hopeful Might Come Out As Gay; Tokyo's Rainbow Pride; Disney Cancels Show with Gay Character
Another Democratic Presidential Hopeful Might Come Out As Gay
As far as I can tell, this is pure speculation. There is no proof at all. However, it doesn't surprise me. There are still many people in the closet and coming out is still one of the most difficult things for a gay person to do.
Said candidate has reportedly lived in the closet for fear that coming out as gay would harm his political career. Now, after witnessing the massive donor haul by the South Bend, IN Mayor, the closet c...

"His Hands" Psychosexual Short Film With Two Men; The All Male Naked Yoga Class; Gay Marvel Character and "Avenger's Endgame"; The Rescuer by Ryan Field
HIS HANDS: Psychosexual Short Film With Two Men
A new short film, His Hands, is about to premiere and from what I'm seeing there are a few innovative aspects you don't see often in any films, let alone films in the erotic genre.
Through dark, haunting images with no dialogue, an older man (Philip Brisebois) beckons a young, strapping man (Arron Blake) over to his flat for a life-altering evening. Blake's menacing character engages in an intense ritual with the old man that includes donning stun...

I wanted to post something one more time about this freebie, because it's not going to last forever. I think it will be free through the weekend, but I'm not totally sure how long it will last next week.
So here's the link, and below is the blurb. It's only free on Amazon.

Pete Buttigieg's 'Peace Deal' With Chick-fil-a; Seattle's Boylesque Scene; The Rescuer by Ryan Field
Pete Buttigieg's 'Peace Deal' With Chick-fil-a
I feel a little ridiculous right now posting about something like this, but it's news and I'm sharing. With all the serious atrocities happening around the world to LGBT people, from Brunei to Chechnya, the last thing I ever thought I would see is someone mention a peace deal between the LGBT community and Chick-fil-a. Maybe that's because I don't eat fast food. I'm not sure.
In any event, here's what Pete Buttigieg wants to do with Chick-fil-a.

Police Raid Gay Ukrainian Club; Chasten Buttigieg's First Date With Pete Was 'Pretty Darn Cute'; The Rescuer by Ryan Field
Police Raid Gay Ukrainian Club
Here's more LGBT news on the global front. This time it's about a gay club that was raided in the Ukraine.
Once inside the club, police officers forced everyone to lie down. At the time, about 30 visitors were at the club, alongside several members of staff.
Here's the link. It's hard to believe things like this still happen in other parts of the world. It doesn't look as though LGBTQ discrimination is going away any time soon.

FREE Book: 'A Young Widow's Promise' and Homophobic Amazon Book Review; First English Football Out Gay Referee Ryan Atkin; The Rescuer by Ryan Field
FREE Book: A Young Widow's Promise and Homophobic Amazon Book Review
I wrote A Young Widow's Promise about 12 years ago for a publisher I'd worked with for a long time, Love You Divine. Working with LYD was one of the best experiences of my writing career...if not my life...and that's partly because they gave me the freedom to do projects like A Young Widow's Promise. I also never experienced one instant of homophobia there. It's a historical romance novella, but it's not "Gay Romance" or...

General Hospital's LGBTQ Story Line Is Mostly About Straight Characters; 60% of Porn Stars Identify As Bisexual; The Rescuer by Ryan Field
General Hospital's LGBTQ Story Line Is Mostly About Straight Characters
I don't watch General Hospital so I can't comment about this story. But I can say that I have seen things like this before. Apparently, GH has a new story line where two straight characters think their son could be gay.
Unfortunately, the execution has ranged from so-so to shaky. Aiden pretty much disappeared, and the story has become more about how his family members are coping with their suspicion that the little boy migh...

Rom-Coms Treating Their Gay Best Friends Badly; Neilsen Ratings and New Survey Discovers LGBTQ People Are Just Like Straight TV Viewers; The Rescuer by Ryan Field
"The Perfect Date": Rom-Coms Treating Their Gay Best Friends Badly
This link is actually a review of the romantic comedy, The Perfect Date. But I think it makes a few good statements in a general sense about the entire rom-com genre. And this is something straight people usually don't get. I've even had publishers ask me to do things like this in gay romance books. In other words, they want to see gay people being treated badly...but not because they are mean. It's because they don't think the...

HBO and Creepy Celebrity Sex Cult
It looks as though HBO has another documentary coming out about some kind of celebrity sex cult that's going to leave more than a few people gaping.
Hot off their success with the documentaries Leaving Neverland and The Inventor, HBO films has announced production on a documentary about the so-called Hollywood sex cult NXIVM.
Here's the link. Some of the details are shocking. They also mention that Smallville actress, Allison Mack, was part o...

British TV Reality Stars Gay Baiting, Again; Aaron Schock Gets Caught At Coachella; LGBT Rights Lawyer Richard Green Dies; The Rescuer by Ryan Field
British TV Reality Stars Gay Baiting
It seems as though gay baiting is not going away any time soon. Here's an article about two straight male reality TV stars in the UK, Sam Thompson and Pete Wicks, who released a serious of photos that are a good deal more intimate and sexually charged than most straight guys would bother to take under normal circumstances.
Thompson then leaked several of the images, which include several shots of the two, presumably naked, snuggled up in a bubble bath.
