Not Sorry He's Gay; Clay Aiken Reality Series? Best and Worst of San Fran Clickbait
Not Sorry He's Gay
A US student, Cole Ledford, took to Twitter to leave a strong message to his attacker. Cole and his boyfriend were beaten for kissing.
Yesterday (November 7), he tweeted a picture of himself and his injuries alongside a text with the words: ‘To the guy who punched me tonight for kissing my boyfriend.’
‘I'm sorry that you called me fag,’ wrote Ledford. ‘I'm sorry you hit me for no reason. I'm sorry that whatever insecurities you have don't allow you to accept others for w...

Alex Minsky on Gay Men; Having an Unusual Small Penis; Another Tranny Joke
Alex Minsky on Gay Men
I posted about Alex Minsky yesterday and how I wasn't fond of the way the article treated him. He's the Marine who was in Afghanistan, where he lost is leg, and he's overcome tons of obstacles in his life. On top of all that, he's by no means bad looking. And now there's another post about him, on how he feels about being naked and gay men.
“I love gay men,” he tells writer Nathaniel Penn, “because if they like something, they’ll let everybody know.” That’s pretty true! And...

Alex Minsky Nude Full Frontal; American Horror Story Gay Content; Rose McGowan Slams Goldern Girls
Alex Minsky Nude Full Frontal
First, the link in this part of the post is NSFW so you've been warned. I'm posting about it for two reasons. One, this guy is not only unbelievably good looking he's also an inspiration in so many ways the post would be too long if I started to list them. And second, I find the title of this post on the link insulting and discriminatory.
Here's the title I think is so offensive:

Rose McGowan Slams Gay Men; WTF Are Man Crushes;Male Full Frontal Nudity in Fifty Shades Movie; Penis Stories Randal Keiser
Rose McGowan Slams Gay Men
I'm going to try to write this part of the post without getting too angry...even though that's how I felt when I read about what Rose McGowan said about gay men...again. And while I think her comments are disingenuous, I can't fault her for being dumb. She clearly knows little about gay men, at least if this is what she thinks. Note: Mr. 1980's, Brett Easton Ellis, does not identify as gay, as suggested in the quote below. We're not sure what he is, because he's, you...

Lena Dunham Slams Book Critics; Two Naked Raw Aussies; Twink on a Plane In a Speedo
Lena Dunham Slams Book Critics
I wanted to link to something fairly neutral with this Lena Dunham topic, but it's been hard to find so I'm linking, mostly, to a local piece in Philly.com. The reason I wanted something neutral is because I'm not focusing on the allegations everyone else is talking about. Frankly, I don't care what Dunham wrote in her book or what she did when she was seven years old. My only focus with this part of the post is the WAY Lena Dunham reacted to criticism of her boo...

Did Brokeback Mountain Help Gays; 2nd Strongest Man: Gay; Gay Cowboys Real Life
Did Brokeback Mountain Help Gays
I remember getting into several discussions with straight friends about Brokeback Mountain...as a film and a story. While I was happy to see anything with gay content in the mainstream, it bothered me at the time that it was done through a straight POV. And I'm not the only one who felt this way. At the time I was interviewing and reviewing for a start up called bestgayblogs.com, and I would say that 99% of the gay male bloggers I came across found Brokeback Mo...

Gay 8 Year Old's Murder; "Ladies, Ladies Ladies" M/M Romance Post; "Looking" Character You Love
"Gay" 8 Year Old's Murder
I don't normally post twice on weekend but a few things have been sticking with me and I won't be able to get them out of my head until I do post. First, this story about a guy who turned down a plea deal after murdering an 8 year old boy who was perceived to be gay sickens me.
Court documents made public in August revealed that Gabriel was doused with pepper spray, forced to eat his own vomit and locked in a cabinet with a sock stuffed in his mouth to muffle his screa...

27 Gay TV Actors; Suzie Orman Pushed Out; Tyler Ritter Plays Gay
27 Gay TV Actors
I'm on the fence about a few of these actors because there's never really been any proof that they were gay. If they were, they lived quiet, discreet lives because they didn't have any other choices. They were victims of their times and circumstances. But it's an interesting list anyway, and even if it's not accurate I see nothing wrong with being called gay because there's no shame or harm in that. In other words, it doesn't really matter.
Most we know were gay for certain, bu...
