Three Gay Men Laugh About Oral Sex With Anderson Cooper’s Mother

The weirdest thing is that Anderson Cooper himself introduced the topic in a discussion with Dan Savage and Andrew Sullivan: “My mom once wrote a romance memoir about men she had dated — and I use that term loosely — and she described one guy she was currently dating — my mom was 85 at […]

You Stay Classy, MSNBC!

Many days, I Watch MSNBC So You Don’t Have To™, but it’s not safe for children and the kids are out of school this week, so I wasn’t watching Monday when the World’s Worst Network featured this: MICHAEL ERIC DYSON: Ann Coulter and Sean Hannity and the rest of those folks ought to be ashamed […]

Where We’re Heading

If you don’t want to be accused of homophobia . . . The director of a new film featuring gay themes and characters is blasting the movie ratings board for giving the comedy an R rating.

Domestic partners Charles Dunnavant and Carl Herold face a litany of charges ranging from sexual torture […]

Homophobia: Pathology or Tautology?

A good friend, who spent many years as an active lesbian, but then met and married a man, becoming a Christian wife and mother, absolutely hates the word “homophobia.” The implied psychiatric diagnosis — that the person so labeled has an irrational fear or hatred of homosexuals — is absurd, and can probably be best […]
