A columnist for the Huffington Post site says it is homophobic to criticize gay men who use Internet sex sites to meet teenage partners and only “bigots” are offended by such “nurturing intergenerational bonds.”
Publicity about a relationship between 39-year-old Hollywood screenwriter Dustin Lance Black and 19-year-old British diving champion Tom Daley has inspired criticism even from some gay rights activists.
Joshua Epstein, a blogger who identifies himself as a gay progressive Democrat, reacted to the Black-Daley affair on Twitter: “He could be his father. Yuk.” That reaction was condemned by Huffington Post columnist Michelangelo Signorile, who said only “internalized homophobia” could cause gays to criticize such relationships.
“There is an undercurrent in these comments — the ‘chicken hawk’ charge — that suggests that gay men are more likely to sexually abuse underage teens, the ugliest lie about gay men out there,” Signorile wrote Friday in Huffington Post’s “Gay Voices” section. “Hardcore homophobes are predictably pointing to Black and Daley as supposed proof. But many gay men too, so defensive about the charge and deathly fearful of how it’s used, overcompensate by saying ‘yuk.'”
Signorile specifically defended sites that promote “intergenerational” gay sex. “Some younger people are attracted to older people, and vice versa,” he wrote. “There’s even a gay website called Daddyhunt. The famed novelist Armistead Maupin’s 27-years-younger husband, Christopher Turner, founded it. The met on another one of Turner’s sites, HotOlderMale.com. If that’s not your thing, it’s totally cool, but in that case just shut your mouth.” . . .

when it comes to that government taking actions against gay people living their private lives,
===============
Boy, you’re in denial. Homosexuals sexually harass, molest, spread STDs, commit violence, tear down age of consent everywhere they exist, disgusting people that they are.
There is no such thing as “gay” – there’s only people with profoundly deformed psychologies regarding heterosexuality, so much so, that they perversely turn to the same sex. That’s what you call “gay.” They need to go fix their mental problems, not harass and bother decent people in society. They hypocrite is you. And you can’t “get social conservatives” on the level of denial of reality you live in.
Of course adult relationships can be morally wrong. I pointed that out already. Don’t put words into my mouth. But someone committing adultery, lying into bed by saying that he’s wealthier than he is, and so on is nothing like child molestation.
Is this really so hard for you big government nanny state social conservatives to understand?
The wrong committed by a couple committing adultery is not the same as the wrong committed by a child molester.
Period.
People are born homosexual. This is fixed and innate. They live their lives not hurting anyone else, get into committed relationships, pay taxes, serve in the military, vote, work, and do everything else like other normal, patriotic Americans.
You can live in your little world that pretends that most STDs are not spread by heterosexuals, that most child molestation is done by heterosexuals, and so on, but I’d rather live in objective reality instead.
How many kids have you ever molested yourself? I’m curious.
After all, you’re straight, and most child molesters are straight men.
You’re also someone that has a lot of psychological projection. That’s shared by most child molesters as well.
/using your logic
Your stupid claim that adults cannot do serious harm to other adults is false.
Deal.
There are adults relationships that are as harmful as child molestation. There are adults that demean and destroy other adults, like certain kinds of child abuse.
Deal.
Then there are all kinds of degrees of exploitation, debauchery, perversity, and other problems in adult relationships.
It’s not exclusive to a certain age pairing. Adults of all ages can do and actually do all kind of degrees of harm and perversity to other adutls.
Always and forever, I think objections to “May-December” romances are very mistaken. The world is full of wonderful relationships between married couples where the devoted, Christian, kind, and generous husband happens to be much older. They’re beautiful.
I guess you’re too stupid to know that Alessandra is a woman’s name. You, on the other hand, sound like an adult male, and a perverted one at that. So the question should really be to you: how many kids have you molested?
I’m just using your logic against yourself, cupcake.
Sauce for the gander and Sauce for the goose, after all.
You put that interestingly: you wrote it solely in terms of the husband being the much older partner. Might this be a subtle, perhaps even unnoticed by you, comment that you think somewhat less of such relationships when the wife is the significantly elder spouse? 🙂
More of your ignorance. No one has ever been born homosexual, a pedophile, or a zoophile. These are ways humans can degenerate after they are born.
Almost half of LGBTs experience violent relationships

and that’s when they aren’t abusing and molesting and harassing heterosexuals. Let’s not forget murder, trafficking, drug peddling, STD spreading, and all other crimes they love to commit and then come on the Internet and say they never do anything wrong.
I was actually thinking about how my father is older than my mother to be honest! *laughs a little*
Let’s use this logic, tootsie roll! You’re a perverted homosexual man – so how many boys have you abused?
don’t be shy to answer now
Princess, don’t forget how the game is played, you’re straight– you’re the group that’s most likely to screw children (straight people) due to objective statistics.
So, tell me, how many?
What did you to do them, Princess?
I’m also not a man, sugarcube.
Cmon, tootsie roll! We all know why you want to smear conservatives! It’s so that nobody goes to investigate what you’ve been doing all your life…
And for your info, homosexuals sexually abuse more kids than heterosexual women! Your garbage of people.
Oh, so you’re into molesting and abusing girls like the Kaitlyn Hunt slime pack!
Awwww, sugarcube, you were doing so well before.
Again, tell me how many little fellows you’ve molested as a proud straight person– a member of that awful group that preys about the young by such immense numbers year after year.
More than then? Twenty?
Keep asking, cupcake.
Oh, you silly, molestation is a straight-person’s game. So, tell me, Princess, how many?
Straight people, gosh, they are such garbage aren’t there? Molesting so many people. You know 25% of girls get molested before age 18. Straight people at work. It’s such a shame.
And the interesting is that a lot of these people doing the molesting think homosexuality and porn and hookups are normal! You’re kind of people!
The majority of people who don’t abuse children are heterosexual. The majority of decent people in the world are heterosexual. The majority of intelligent people in the world are heterosexual. The majority of honest people in the world are heterosexual. I could go on, tootsie roll.
We can all play “majority” claims any time.
Oh tootsie roll! Are you in a mental institution or in prison for child abuse?
Only someone in a place like that goes around lying that LGBTs molest and abuse…
What you think of Frank Lombard, twinkie pie? You’re kind of homosexual monster, is he?
Similar relationships between significantly older women and younger men are rare for biological reasons, I think. Older women are past their child-bearing years, whereas the age of the male is irrelevant. If you go back a century where maternal death during childbirth was not unusual, neither was remarriage among older males to younger women. I think Hollywood created the idea of the “Cougar,” which, to the extent it exists, is really more about short term flings, than lasting relationships.
“People are born homosexual. This is fixed and innate.”
Wrong. It’s chosen.
Delay is an adult as is Black – Honestly who cares as long as they are consenting adults. Catherine Zeta Jones married Michael Douglas a 25 year difference — big whoop.

And it appears to have fallen apart. You’re clear proof that perverts don’t care about quality or ethics in relationships.
The “born homosexual” thing is a convenient lie. It has never been shown. Period. The reality you live in is anything but objective, but is convenient to the lies you push.
[…] R.S. McCain Reports on Michelangelo Signorile’s typically hypersensitive, overwrought response to a wee incident of what he perceives as an affront to gay political correctness. […]
Many times the slope really is slippery. The last 80 years have pretty well laid to rest the idea that such an idea is always a fallacy.
What you conveniently neglect is that the position Allesandra has taken BECAME the minority position. When our society was healthy it was queer sex, and what surrounded it, was almost universally regraded as deeply sick. What we are seeing the US now pretty much lays to rest the idea that those people were wrong. Queer sex is perverted and diseased, spiritually and physically.
Yep just like how homeless heterosexuals and bisexuals are exploited by the heterosexual community. But thats different right?. Not everyone in the lgbt community is or can be lumped and generalize you would like to get away with.
What are you talking about?
“But you must have the honestly to admit that you are taking the minority, anti-normal, anti-majority position.”
The minority, anti-normal, anti-majority position? You mean like being attracted to members of the same sex?
Just make sure you Never ever engage in oral sex because that is considered sodomy .
Are you capable of approaching the discussion like an adult?
“People are born homosexual. ”
And that will be the Pravda up until someone comes up with an in-utero test for homosexuality.
“I’m also not a man, sugarcube.”
We knew that, regardless of what your genes coded you to be.
“Oh, you silly, molestation is a straight-person’s game. ”
Wrong. Why are you such a bigot?
Sadly, Tom Daley’s father recently passed away from cancer. His new daddy is exactly the same age as his father was. I don’t think I’m drawing a long bow in connecting homosexual behavior with ‘daddy issues.’
Born this way…yeah right.
” I think objections to “May-December” romances are very mistaken. ”
Why should anyone care what you ‘think’?
Society develops certain taboos for a reason.
It’s rather telling that the same political wing that refers to everyone in the military as “children” sees them as an acceptable age for buggering.
Sodomy is a term not found in the Scriptures but it does adequately describe the pseudo-sexual interaction between two males or two females insofar as such practices are unnatural, harmful and morally wrong. That is the sense in which I meant it, as I’m sure you’re aware, and is the correct sense.
However, it may interest you to learn that nothing is expressly forbidden in the New Testament between a man and wife. Does this mean anything a man and wife may choose to do in the marital bed is disapproved? It’s impossible to say dogmatically – since there’s no stated, definite restrictions of any kind, it’s a matter of conscience. What one married man and woman are okay with, another married man and woman might not want to do. It’s a matter of conscience. So there’s actually no valid correlation between my point and yours desperate attempt at a point.
Let’s recap:
1. Scripture is clear that male/male or female/female pseudo-sex = sodomy = sin. Only a subnormal intellect or an utterly darkened mind even questions this.
2. Scripture places no explicit restrictions on sexual relations within the confines of the marriage of one man and one woman joined in a monogamous, lifelong, covenant relationship.
Is that your dad in that picture with you?
No, s/he’s not.
The person in the photo is my husband. As for your scripture you are welcome to interpret it however you choose – it is a free country not a theocracy.
As for what is allowed an not allowed in the marriage bed – is that only with your first wife or does that include your concubines or house maids also?
Alessandra – anyone’s relationship that fails is now perverted? Actually they have reconciled and are back together. But hey continue to spew your venom – make a day of it.
Oops, you lose. Lazy buzzwords like “theocracy” (which no true Bible-believing Christian would *ever* promote or tolerate) are an automatic disqual.
Call him what you want but the man in the photo is not your husband, nor you his. A man can be a husband only to a woman.
“As for what is allowed an not allowed in the marriage bed – is that only with your first wife or does that include your concubines or house maids also?”
I weary of your ignorance of matters on which you presume to instruct and judge others. The Old Testament law has no binding whatsoever on those who are in Christ, for in Him they are dead to the Law which you seek to use as a club to make a petty point. In so doing, you “twist the Scriptures to your own destruction.” Repent.
WOW – so anyone whom dates or marries someone whom is older has daddy or mommy issues?
She was talking about you and how perverse YOU are, not the celebs. Take a break, you’re mind is clouded and really embarrassing you now.
Mostly based upon religious zealotry with superstitious under pinnings.
