You can check it all out, here. 


Keiynan Lonsdale On Letting the Balls Breathe

Lonsdale seems to be an advocate for gender neutral clothing, and he's not without critics on social media who seem to think they have...

Penis Size Project Professor Actually Wants Dick Pics; Homophobic Rap Character and Lakeith Stanfield's Apology; Britain's Busy Gay Porn Actor Dirty Danny

Penis Size Project Professor Actually Wants Dick Pics

In a world where we are usually complaining about those awful unsolicited dick pics, it's nice to see something real and honest like this. A professor at MSU is doing research about penis size and she's requesting this:

As part of the study, Walker hopes at least 3,600 men — from outside the Ozarks — will fill out an online survey and upload photos of their genitalia. The participants must be age 22 or older.

"These are not sexy pic...

Adam Rippon Naked Photos; Guy Claims Innocence For Beating Gay Couple Because His Dad's Gay; Ohio Gay Mayor and His Husband Beat the Crap Out of Each Other

Adam Rippon Naked Photos

This one is pretty self-explanatory. And it's SFW.

Here's a statement from Rippon:

“I couldn’t have done this [shoot] while I was in the closet. I think that, with my experience of coming out, I felt so liberated in so many ways.”

Here's the link.  I wonder if everyone who comes out now will start posing naked. I have no problem with that. (smile)

The comments are a little cruel. But I think Rippon's adorable.

Why Some Gay Men Don't Like LGBT Pride; Gay For Pay Michael Hoffman Comes Out of Retirement; Alarming Stats For LGBT Employees

Why Some Gay Men Don't Like LGBT Pride

I find this interesting because I know a lot of gay men and women and I've heard the same things from them over the years. I know trans people who've said similar things. I just couldn't put all that in the headline. But I would imagine almost everyone who falls under the LGBTQIA umbrella has an opinion.

Here's a link to a piece that talks about why some don't like Pride and won't support it.

‘It’s a circus and has no relevance to its original purpose,’ say...

Hollywood's Avoidance of Openly Gay Actors; New York City and Toronto Pride; HIV Vaccine Trials 2019

Hollywood's Avoidance of Openly Gay Actors

I titled this in a totally different way than the article to which I'm linking. But aside from that, it's an excellent piece that discusses LGBT films, characters, and the fact that you almost always see straight actors playing gayface. Gayface, as in the way it relates to white actors/performers who used to play blackface.

But as times have changed and “gay” is no longer a dirty word onscreen, straight actors are reaping most of the rewards (and award...

Opening All The Closets of Hollywood's Golden Age; New LGBT Films/Shows That Are Out; Cop Accused of Raping Man

Opening All the Closets of Hollywood's Golden Age

This is probably something that was bound to happen sooner or later, and I'm shocked there isn't more out there like it. Someone wrote a book exposing all the double standards and the hypocrisy of old Hollywood and now it's a documentary. But I also think it could be classified as part of gay history, too.

In the 1940s and ‘50s, Scotty ran a gas station in the shadow of the studio lots where he would connect his friends with actors and actresses...

Roseanne Spin Off Confirmed "The Conners"; Crowd Cheers Exhibitionist Gay Sex In Hong Kong; Czech Republic and Same Sex Marriage

Roseanne Spin Off Confirmed "The Conners" 

Here's something I've seen going around all day on social media. I have no idea how these things work, or if Roseanne owns the copyrights. If she does, they apparently worked something out. They do mention something about the rights to the Roseanne character at the end of this piece.

The new show will be called The Conners, and will focus on the family, who, “after a sudden turn of events, are forced to face the daily struggles of life in Lan...

Kansas Man Has Sex With His Car: Object Sexuality; Cher and Streep Going After Sexual Abuser; LGBT Elders Reading Letters To Younger Selves

Kansas Man Has Sex With His Car: Object Sexuality

I find this one interesting because there actually is a legitimate fetish called Object Sexuality. I was once asked by a publisher to contribute something to a book with this theme. And yet all I've seen are people laughing and joking about this guy. Clearly, they don't know any better.

First, here's something about Object Sexuality:

Object sexuality or objectophilia is a form of sexuality focused on particular inanimate...

Many People Having Sex At Work

I don't think this is something new. I remember this happening when I got my first part time job in high school at the mall.

A new study finds that 14% of Americans have done the hanky panky at the office. 2000 men and women participated in the study, which was conducted by EdenFantasys.And they don’t always get away with it either. Of the 14%, 1 in 5 say they were caught in the act.Here's the rest. Keep in mind that this is only 14% of the people who admit t...

A Jury Sentences Man To Death Because He's Gay; Frank Discussion About LGBTI and Gender Issues For the Vatican; Warwick Rowers Banned From Instagram

A Jury Sentences Man To Death Because He's Gay

This is kind of ironic because it reminds me of the post I wrote last week about the Netflix true crime series, The Staircase. In that post I questioned how a jury reacted to bisexuality, and this confirms my suspicions about a so-called "jury of your peers."

But this is really scary...that people are so stupid they would actually think this...

Some of the jurors who imposed the death penalty on Charles Rhines, who was convicted of murder, have...
