Decriminalization of Gay Sex In India
I've been following this all weekend. India has a long way to go.
Gay sex is considered taboo by many in socially conservative India, and while it no longer carries the previous punishment of up to 10 years in prison, other rights like gay marriage are likely to prove elusive.
Here's the rest. Let's face it. If the far right conservatives had their way here in the US, we'd be facing the same situations.

Don't Send Russell Tovey Unsolicited D#ick Pics
It sounds as though Tovey is ready to settle down.
“I want someone to call me Daddy,” the 36-year-old actor tells Gay Times in a new interview. “I remember being at school, junior school, and already wanting to be a dad.”
Here's more. But he's not interested in seeing pics of your penis. Although I've never had the urge to deal with children, I do totally agree with him about the penis photos. There are far better ways to get to know...

Airline Separates Gay Parent Family
I'm sure a lot of people like me didn't know this kind of thing was happening.
While waiting for his flight from San Francisco to Taipei, Taiwan, representatives for EVA airlines told Cobb and his husband that only one of them could pre-board with their 19-month-old son. His husband, gate attendants told Cobb, would need to wait in line for general boarding.
But they allowed straight couples board with no problem at all.

Gay Drama Teacher and Homophobic Mom; Student Wins 10 Grand After Escaping Gay Concentration Camp In Africa; The Alex Jones Trans Porn Saga
Gay Drama Teacher and Homophobic Mom
Here's something that may not break any stereotypes, but I think it enforces the fact that some stereotypes aren't always that bad. A homophobic Christian mom found out her kid's drama teacher was gay and she pulled her kid from the class. She wrote a snarky note, too. Here's how the teacher replied.
“I would be lying if I said I was disappointed to hear this. I pride my students on the respect and love they have for others and their passion for equality. Yo...

Guys Who Identify As Straight Having Same Gender Sex; Bob Mizer Homoerotic Images; Pushing Russia To Act On Chechnya's Gay Purge
Guys Who Identify As Straight Having Same Gender Sex
This is interesting. Apparently, desire and identity are the alleged reasons why guys who identify as straight enjoy having sex with gay guys. I'm treading with care here not to call it "gay sex."
“A person can identify as straight but still desire or engage in sexual contact with persons of the same gender,” he writes.He points to a recent study by Arielle Kuperberg of the University of North Carolina and Alicia Walker of Missouri State...

The Most Insane Penis Stories
Here's something I found that I thought was worth sharing. My Facebook friends won't get it, but I know my Internet followers enjoy these posts, and that's why I do them. The majority of my hits in the last ten years have always come from random Google searches, not from romance readers or people who follow me on social media. And I like that, and I like reaching people from all over the world. That's the only reason I keep blogging.

California Won't Push Gay Conversion Therapy Ban

A California lawmaker said Friday he is ending his effort this year to pass a bill declaring gay conversion therapy a fraudulent practice.

Health and Lifestyle Factors With Penis Size; Can A Woman Have A Penis?; Mike Pence Once Identified As A Democrat
Health and Lifestyle Factors With Penis Size
I know it's not as good as politics, but I find things like this highly informative sometimes.
This article gets into a few of the more clinical facts about penis size.
Also, they noted that men with penises that are shorter in size when flaccid tended to experience a greater increase in both length and girth when their penises became erect. This did not appear to be true for men whose penises were on the longer side when in flaccid state.
