If you are an anti-gay activist, sometimes you have to be careful not to sound like a loon. Sadly, Sally Kern isn’t very skilled at that task.
Never one to pass an opportunity to spout a homophobic rant, Sally just had to respond when she heard that Lambda Legal has assigned May 15 as “Clock in for Equality Day” and is encouraging folks to take a pledge to oppose discrimination.
Well, if it’s gay folks doing it, Sally objects. Even if that makes her seem a bit confused.

Peter LaBarbera and Box Turtle Bulletin's Timothy Kincaid (a frequent and much loved commenter here at G-A-Y) have been having a back-and-forth regarding the way Pete is presenting the "facts" in an alleged hate crime case that realistically put a young gay man in the hospital. But since the debate is their own, we aren't going to address Pete and Tim's spat. And since the actual events of the case are up for debate and are currently being sorted out in court, we're also not going to delve further into ...
Republican Vito Fossella’s even sleazier than we imagined!
The Staten Island lawmaker - who sought a ban on gay marriage - has been making headlines in recent weeks because of his drunk driving arrest and admitting to fathering a love child. All the drama had people speculating Fossella would soon resign, although he claims otherwise. In fact, this ballsy man may even run for reelection.
Well, things got even uglier in Fossella’s orbit this morning, as sources claim the “family values” politico has even less family values that previously imagined: he shuns his lesbian sister, Victoria, a ...
“Bush Apologizes To Chandler For Anti-Gay Police Incident”
(No, not that Bush… but I could not resist the title)
Pilar Bush, minister of the Cayman Islands Tourism Bureau, personally apologized to Aaron Chandler for an police incident this past week. Chandler and his boyfriend were out partying with some girls. They were dancing and having a good time. The boys kissed and were reprimanded by a local policeman for showing public affection. Chandler and his mate shrugged the encountered off and continued dancing. When they kissed again the cop called for backup and they were hauled off to the station.
They were told ...
Gown-wearing gays are under fire in the Philippines. Catholic Cardinal Gaudencio Rosales made headlines this weekend after declaring on Church radio that we homos have no place in May’s Santacruzan festivals. The event - also known as Flowers of May - involves girls and women getting dolled up in their finest threads and marching for the Virgin Mary. And, as you know, the Catholics take their Virgin very seriously, which helps explain Rosales opposition.
Gay activist Danton Remoto insists, however, that the gays are just as dedicated to the legendary lady:
In the eyes of God, everyone is equal. Some ...
Homophobia’s got a way of lasting the test of time. Massachusetts-based gay activist Aaron Chandler certainly learned that lesson this week.
The 23-year old wrote in from the Grand Cayman Islands, where he and some friends are currently on vacation. Chandler explained that he, his boyfriend and some gal pals went out for a night of dancing when a police officer broke up their party to reprimand Chandler for “showing public affection” with his boyfriend.
The men originally blew the copper off, but learned a lesson when, after they kissed again, the copper called for backup.
Now, before you get ...
Elaine Donnelly has made it her life’s mission to return the military to the 1930’s. Through her Center for Military Readiness, she agitates against gays in the military and women in combat.
While gay people make her shudder, women are grudgingly acceptable in the service - as long as they don’t fight. It’s just not very lady-like, ya know.
But while Donnelly actively campaigns to reduce equal opportunities for women in the Military Service, you’d never know that from her new anti-gay campaign. On her new website established “build an online army” to fight against “gay activists”, ...
