Gospel Condoms
Online sockpuppetry and real life fakery reigned supreme when a Christian activist admittedly used a fake organization, fake names, and web site to trick the people running Vancouver Pride Parade into letting them march so they could hand out anti-gay pamphlets disguised as Trojan condoms.
How disgusting is this?

Channing Tatum Gay Baiting? Adam Joseph Gay Weatherman; Dan Osborne's Bulge
Channing Tatum Gay Baiting?
Whether you prefer to call it gay baiting or queer baiting it's all basically the same thing. It's when they take two straight guys and put them in homoerotic situations, but never actually follow through with anything gay. The most interesting part about this, for me anyway, is that it actually does boost attention and interest. And when it happens on TV it usually boosts ratings for TV shows that would otherwise tank hugely.

Religion & Gay Hate
A guy named Victor Sadet allegedly followed a group of gay men out of a restaurant and started shouting hateful slurs at them. But more than that, he quoted from the bible and then said that his deep religious beliefs led him to behave this way. He felt he was right doing what he did.
Calling Tweedie a "f*cking fa**ot", the holy roller was certain to clarify that the book of Leviticus called for Tweedie's death. The man was later interviewed by WILX 10 News an...

NY Face Slashing
When a young woman heard her friend being called gay slurs she came to her friend's defense and wound up getting her face slashed by a homeless man who thought he was being followed by "homosexuals."
Luckily at that moment an off-duty police officer was exiting a nearby subway station and gave chase after Brison who was nabbed five blocks away with the help of on-duty officers.
Brison later told police that he had ‘got the lesbians that were following him.’ The woman...

Release Day: Cage James by Ryan Field
I don't normally do an individual post for a book release, but I've had a lot going on this summer and I wanted to make sure this post about Cage James gets out before I forget and start posting about something else.
Cage James is a m/m novella that's not exactly a romance, but it's not exactly a thriller either. It's a little different from what I normally do and it has a few of the quirky aspects that I used to add all the time to short stories I wr...

Matt Bomer's Final White Collar
Matt Bomer recently filmed his last White Collar episode. He tweeted about it on Monday, thanking everyone as if they were family.
The show debuted in 2009 with a then little-known Bomer in the lead role of ex-con Neal Caffrey.
As a way of staying out of prison, Neal agrees to help the FBI catch other white collar criminals and works with an FBI agent played by Tim Dekay. Both Bomer and Dekay have appeared in all 86 episodes of the series which is having an abbre...

Gay Facebook Rant
This is interesting for several reasons. A dad in the UK went on a Facebook rant and made threatening remarks about gays. Although he pleaded guilty he claims he's not homophobic and he just had a hard day at work.
In a post under an article about a Pride event in Newcastle, north England, he said:
‘If your parents were faggots, you horrible gay cunts wouldn't of [sic] been born! Should be lined up and machine gunned, vile disgusting cunts!’

Straight Guy Tease
This seems to be happening in other reality TV shows lately, too. In the UK there's a reality show similar to Jersey Shore and there's a straight guy on the show, Dan Osborne, who seems to be making headlines for something many are calling a straight tease.
We're really living in interesting times:
In this week’s season finale, Osborne officially took his love for the gay community to the max by kissing gay cast member Bobby Norris on the lips. Or, as the Brits say, the b...

Bareback Sex
There's a new survey out that discusses when guys are more apt to have bareback sex...risky sex without a condom. Evidently, it seems to happen after using drugs or alcohol. The survey was conducted by Gay Times.
