 In An Ironic Twist, Disney Heir Comes Out As Trans

With all the discussion happening right now with Florida's disgusting don't say gay bill, it's kind of ironic that one of the Disney heirs came out as transgender. And they are NOT supporting this don't say gay bill. It doesn't seem as though anyone associated with Disney is supporting this bill.  

Roy P. Disney — the great-nephew of Walt Disney and the co-founder of Walt Disney Co — disclosed recently in a statement that his child, Charlee, is t...

DeSantis Mad At "Say Gay" Billboards, What the Don't Say Gay Bill Is Actually About, Ryan Field Books

 DeSantis Mad At "Say Gay" Billboards

Last week I linked to a piece where Mayor Adams of New York City decided to support  LGBTQIA people with regard to the don't say gay bill down in DeSantis's awful Florida. Mayor Adams is putting up billboards in NY, funded by private donations, in order to denounce the don't say gay bill in DeSantis's Florida. Sadly, the best reply DeSantis could come up with was an anti-masker, anti-vaxxer comment that wasn't all that clever. 

"They're saying you can say what...

Vernon Jones Claims Being Gay Is a Choice And Don't Compare Gay Equal Rights to Black Civil Rights, Ryan Field Books

Vernon Jones Claims Being Gay Is a Choice And Don't Compare Gay Equal Rights to Black Civil Rights

This one is rich. There's a guy running for office in Georgia and his name is Vernon Jones. He is allegedly a huge supporter of Donald Trump, Trump has actually endorsed him, and from the way it appears, his base is mostly MAGA. 

"They can actually change," Jones said in a comment that would put him at odds with LGBT advocates who have said that sexual orientation is what you are born with and not a ...

Ohio Lawmakers Set New Don't Day Gay Bill Into Motion, Alabama Passes Don't Say Gay Bill with Transgender Bathroom Restrictions

Ohio Lawmakers Set New Don't Day Gay Bill Into Motion

It's only a matter of time until more MAGA states start introducing bills similar to the don't say gay bill in Florida. It's a direct attack on the LGBTQIA community and in many ways, it feels as though we've slipped right back into the 1950s. Tell me we aren't a marginalized group. 

 

Ohio House Republicans introduced an education bill this week that would prohibit teaching young students about sexual orientation or gender identity, similar to ...

Mainstream Publishing Is Now Slamming and Appropriating Gay Men, Ryan Field Books

About 15 years ago when I started to get contracts for writing digital books, I came across an interesting gay male author. You have to understand that by this time I had already written for and been published by all the gay presses from Alyson Books to German presses like Bruno Gmunder. I was used to meeting and connecting with gay male authors. No big deal. 

So this gay male author I met that first year I started p...

New York City's Mayor Adams Promotes the City As a Safe Place away from Florida and the Don't Say Gay Bill, Ryan Field Books

New York City's Mayor Adams Promotes the City As a Safe Place away from Florida and the Don't Say Gay Bill, Ryan Field Books

I wish other cities and states would start doing this, too. Mayor Adams in NYC is going full steam ahead with a campaign to draw gay people out of Florida and into New York. Because it's safe there. I have to admit that I have never seen anything as vicious as what's happening in Florida right now. The Ultra conservative MAGA crowd is now referring to gay people are "groome...

Mayor Adams promotes LGBTQ NY in opposition to Florida’s ‘Don’t Say Gay’ law, Ryan Field Books

Mayor Adams promotes LGBTQ NY in opposition to Florida’s ‘Don’t Say Gay’ law

I've been following Mayor Adams in New York for a while now and I love and respect him. He takes his fair share of hits, but he never backs down to anyone. He a true leader. 

This time, in direct opposition to that hideous Governor in Florida, DeSantis, NY's Mayor Adams is now promoting LGBTQNY as a way to retaliate against the don't say gay law and all the MAGAs who support it. 

“We are going to loudly show our support, t...

World’s First Openly Gay Head of State in San Marino

 World’s First Openly Gay Head of State in San Marino

It’s nice to see things like this happening in other places in the world, in contrast to what’s happening in Florida. Pay attention conservatives in Florida. 

San Marino, the medieval micro-state surrounded on all sides by the rolling hills of central Italy, has appointed 58-year-old Paolo Rondelli as one of two captains regent, its heads of state.

Here’s more  He’s openly gay and also an lGBTQ activist as well. I hope the conservatives who are ...

Trump Says Gay Reporter Doesn't Look Gay and Older Straight People Making Homophobic Comments, Ryan Field Books

Trump Says Gay Reporter Doesn't Look Gay

Here's a story that I think falls under the categories of age and white privilege. It's not just Donald Trump that does these things. I find that most people over a certain age who are straight and white usually make similar homophobic comments in their own various ways. And they could be liberal or conservative. Just this morning I saw an older liberal guy on Twitter post a homophobic Tweet about Scott Baio and Donald Trump being gay lovers on some "Broke...
