What Straight People Don't Know About Gay Sex
The other day I got into a discussion with a woman from the UK who thought being gay was a choice, and that being gay was all about sex. She referred to being gay as if it were some kind of club that requires a membership card. And I realized that straight people know very little...if anything...about gay people in general, let alone gay sex.
Here's a list of 5 things straight people don't know about gay sex, and I thought this one was spot on.

British Soap's Male Rape Scene; Mark Salling's Death: New Details; Burning His House Down With Spaghetti Sauce
British Soap's Male Rape Scene
You don't see anyone doing this on TV often.
Coronation Street is one of the longest-running soap operas in the U.K. It premiered in December 1960 and has aired nearly 10,000 episodes since. Well, this week, the show tackled one of its most controversial topics to date: male rape.
Here's a link. It sounds as thought they made it as realistic as possible.

Mike Pence's Gay Bunny Number 1; Cynthia Nixon Running For NY Governor; Another Review For Love, Simon
Mike Pence Gay Bunny Book Number 1
I knew nothing about this book until I saw the article. But I think we'll be hearing more about it this month.
This is the story of a little gay bunny.
A little gay bunny who belongs to Vice President Mike Pence
A little fictional gay bunny whose book is beating the memoir of James B. Comey, the former F.B.I. director, on the Amazon best-seller list.
This is the story of Marlon Bundo, the Instagram star and real-life pet of the vice presi...

Love, Simon Box Office Smash; Gay Men Slut Shaming Each Other; Brandon Myers's Gay Adult Film
Love, Simon Box Office Smash
Obviously the film critic over at Time Magazine got this one wrong with his way off base review. As it happens, Love, Simon opened with some highly impressive numbers.
Love, Simon was, in many ways, a calculated risk for its studio, 20th Century Fox. There had never been a wide, major-studio release of a film centered on a gay teenager. It’s worth also noting that teen movies have suffered recently because it’s hard to get adolescent viewers to go to...

Why I Disagree With Time Magazine's "Love, Simon" Review; Gay Millennials and Monogamy; Another Man On PrEP Tests HIV Positive
Why I Disagree With Time Magazine's Love, Simon ReviewI haven't seen Love, Simon yet so this isn't my opinion. I did comment at the end of this post, though, because this review is NOT an opinion with which I agree. I also do intend to see Love, Simon because I've heard to many good things about it from so many people...gay and straight. I love the fact that Love, Simon star, . With that said, this is rich...But that’s precisel...

Newspaper Removes Gay Husband From Obituary; Love, Simon Star Keiynan Lonsdale On Coming Out; A Tool To See Who Blocked You On Grindr
Newspaper Removes Gay Husband From Obituary
I've seen gay couples deal with obituaries many different ways in my lifetime. Older gay couples typically mentioned a "husband" as "a lifelong friend," or something along those lines. Something tasteful and safe...something that wouldn't offend people. Up until recently I rarely ever saw "husband" ( or "wife") actually used in obituaries for older gay couples. That's because discretion was always the most important thing to these people. And also be...

Man Tests HIV Positive With PrEP; Hot Cop of Castro Found Guilty; Troye Sivan Doesn't Want To Be Called A Gay Icon
Man Tests HIV Positive With PrEP
I heard a very unusual story recently about a guy I know personally who is on PrEP. He's been doing the PrEP regimen for a couple of years, he's always tested negative for HIV, he's perfectly healthy, and he was recently diagnosed with Kaposi's Sarcoma...KS...which is a rare form of cancer associated with AIDS. No one can explain why he got KS, especially since he's HIV negative. But this kind of KS been showing up in urban areas with gay men just recently. And...

Jake Sheers and Broadway's Kinky Boots; Private Grindr Pics Sent To City Hall; The Benham Brothers Talk Sex
Jake Sheers and Broadway's Kinky Boots
This is getting fantastic reviews.
The campaign to import Jake Shears and his kinky boots from Broadway to the West End starts here. And hopefully the Scissor Sisters star can smuggle Kirstin Maldonado, of acapella group Pentatonix, over in his suitcase. These two big-name additions to the New York cast of the Tony award-winning musical are so good it’s hard to believe they’re both making their Broadway debuts.
You can check this out, here. I remember...

HBO's Here and Now Excellently HOT Gay Sex Scenes
When I first started watching HBO's new series, Here and Now, I thought it would be more of a paranormal. So far I'm not really sure what it is, but I love the characters, the story line moves fast, and there are two gay characters that are handled very well. So far I can't find one single Will and Grace stereotype. Like most TV these days, the gay characters in Here and Now are being incorporated into a mainstream story line and it'...

They Love to StraightSplain To Us; StraightSplaining In Disguise; StraightSplaining and Being Totally Ignored
They Love To "StraightSplain" To Us
This has been one of those weeks where it seems as if every time I turn around another straight person is telling me what gay marriage is all about in the typical condescending way. It happens to all gay people, not just me. They'll not only tell you they know it all, they'll swear they are experts on gay marriage. And then they'll tell you what it's like to be gay and married. The best one so far I've encountered is the so-called "gay tolerant" conservative...
