<<< Brian Jankic lenses Marcus Hill for Geil magazine. More manikin news later on.

>>> Remember that sexy gay priest ad so many of you downloaded a couple of issues back? The Advertising Standards Authority has banned it, claiming it makes a mockery of the Roman Catholic church (who I'd have thought were doing a pretty good job of it all by themselves).

<<< The National Secular Society has accused the ASA of reintroducing blasphemy by the back door. They say, "Anyone who has seen the Antonio Federici ads knows that they are mildly humorous, in no way threatening, abusive or insulting. It is entirely wrong that these advertisements have been banned by such an unaccountable body, which needs to be reined in."

>>> 19-year-old Corey Jackson, a student at Oakland University in Michigan, hung himself on 19th October. Corey told his Aunt, Kim Jones, "I don't know what's wrong.

<<< 26-year-old Joseph Jefferson, a gay youth activist in New York, hung himself on the 23rd October. Jefferson wrote on his Facebook page, "Belonging is one of the basic human needs, when people feel isolated and excluded from a sense of communion with others, they suffer. I have been an advocate for my peers and most importantly youth because most have never had a deep emotional attachment to anyone. They don't know how to love and be loved in return. The need to be loved can sometimes translate to the need to belong to someone or something. Driven by that need... Most will do anything to belong." His Facebook page remains open, the photo albums therein offering a heartbreaking glimpse into the life of a young man gone too soon.

>>> The murder trial of 18-year-old John Katehis, who stabbed a New York news anchor to death, has ended in a hung jury. "One lone juror was the holdout, refusing to vote with the 11 others who stood ready to convict Katehis of murder. [George Weber] went online to hire Katehis, then 16, to act out a smothering scene at his Brooklyn home. Despite the 50 stab wounds Weber suffered, the unidentified female juror holdout 'didn't believe they proved intent.'"

||| Churches contribute to gay suicides, most Americans believe.

<<< "Seriously they want me to wear purple because five queers killed themselves. The only way im wearin it for them is if they all commit suicide. I cant believe the people of this world have gotten this stupid. We are honoring the fact that they sinned and killed thereselves because of their sin. REALLY PEOPLE." Those are the words of Arkansas school board member Clint McCance. Terrifying.

>>> Protesters demanded his immediate resignation, and a Facebook page calling for the same thing has been set up.

||| The season of gay whiplash. "Between Paladino, the Bronx tortures, and the suicides, are things really getting better?" Chris Rovzar writes for New York Magazine.

Schools, employers and governments that impose invisibility continue to feed the fear of the unknown - and the well-documented and often tragic consequences that follow." Hayley Gorenberg writes about Gay Rights as Human Rights.

||| Los Angeles Times editorial: "Fighting gay bullying: The only 'agenda' is respect. It's silly to claim that anti-gay bullying efforts are part of an attempt to push some kind of homosexual 'agenda.'"

>>> Bad Lieutenant, Dan Choi. Choi talks Grindr, and the rift between different factions of gay activists.

||| Poor old Dan - for all his good work, he's managed to incur the wrath of one angry lesbian. Bridgette P. LaVictoire at Lez Get Real has blasted him as a misygonist and "a sexist moron". His crime? He called an anti-gay senator a "pussy". When Bridgette has contributed as much as Choi to GBLT equality, she'll have a platform to criticise. Pussy.

Prince Todd said...

1.) I guess the Roman Catholic Church was offended because both parties in the photograph resembled consenting adults? I'm just sayin...
2.) Well, there is nothing about Corey Jackson that I have not already said a gazillion times before...Rest In Peace.
3.) It's strange how this rash of gay suicides is suddenly making the news. Hello general public? This has been going on for ages. Now even gay activists are doing it. So so sad.
4.) The guy who got bashed in the head by a skin head and united with him is better than me. I would unite only so I could get close enough to stab him.
5.) I saw that John Quionnes episode on 20/20 and it did not surprise me that hardly anyone stopped. What did shock me was the three young black women. I was so thrilled. Perhaps there is hope for the black community yet, in terms of embracing and ACCEPTING GLBT's as human beings. :0)
6.) Marcus Patrick is hot. But he's dumber than a bag of hair and crumbled up bricks.
7.)Andre Cooley: I am so glad more gays are standing up and fighting discrimination rather than taking it on the chin. This is wonderful...:o)
8.) One in ten US teens? I thought it was way more than that!
9.) I honestly wish I could be a gay teen now rather than in the late 90's and early naughts. In spite of some similarities so much has changed. I work in high schools where FABU teen boys are the NORM and not the exception.
10.) Diseased lonely and dead? Well, by the furies at least I'll die in a fabulous outfit!
11.) Churches contribute to gay suicide? Well, when you grow up being told that you are a: pervert, abomination, filthy, wretched, and you deserve hell...That does something to your self esteem. So I tend to agree.
12.) Arkansas is officially the WORST place in the WORLD. Clint McCance looks like he drinks Robitussin and regularly binges on crystal meth.
13.) Again, while it has gotten better HS life for a gay or lesbian teen is not cute...for the most part.
14.) I feel like President Obama, after losing his House Majority, need to go ahead and repeal DADT his damn self. The whole "Reaching across the aisle" is officially DEAD. The Republican party is a racist movement and they don't care about trying to help his black ass (sorry for being so blunt).
15.) LMAO@Pussy...ew.
16.) Why has US turned against President Obama? Next question...I'll not turn this into a dissertation.
17.) Hmmmm, I need to start watching FOOTBALL (not the American version)...haha.
18.) I hope not all gay sex lives are as dreary as heteros! Granted, we aren't all hoes but still...Never that dull!
19.) I'll speak for myself on the issue of never wanting children...
For one they get on my nerves after five minutes. They cost too much money. They grow into teenagers. You can't do anything without first thinking about the child. They are NASTY (have all kinds of germs and are messy).
No thank you. Besides, I'd much rather have a cat.
20.) Okay, according to Serbians you must...
Not each junk food...Check
Drink a lot of water...Check
Reject: Alcohol, Caffeine, and Diuretics...Check, Check, and Check
Use regular enemas (even need to ask?)
Lots of physical activity...Check.
Okay, I personally think adhering to that list will make you more gay. I mean just look at me...
21.) If all Lebanese look like Francois Sagat I want to goooooo!
22.) Okay, due to all this gay discrimination...I think the LGBT community should just start carrying guns and stuff. I carry pepper spray, a knife, and baseball bat...Not a gun but if someone tries me well I'll not just stand there.
23.) Straight guys are not only comfortable with kissing guys they are also comfortable, when no one is looking, asking you to go down on them.
24.) Bothans have discovered that Guru is a close relative of George W. Bush.
Continued...

Prince Todd said...

25.) Mehcad looks that way after lots of sex? Oh my god...well Mr. Brooks come my way so you can look even BETTER! :o)
26.) Tyson Beckford...come out already.
27.) Well, everyone knows how I feel about the hell spawn that are Will Smith's children...*gag*
28.) Okay, I don't know what it is but I love seeing big strapping butch men dressed in women's underwear...Djimon Honsou looks haaaaawt! haha.
29.) LMAO @ Diesel's comment...Okay, I don't want to come off like his groupie but that was hilarious.
30.)Okay, stick a fork in me I am so DONE!
(don't know if my previous comment show up...it was hella long.)
Toddy.

KAOS said...

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Toddy, you give good comment.

Btw I was thinking of you when I used the picture of Marcus Patrick, I remember your post about him... lol x

Oura said...

I say this often, and I know it's not true of each individual, and isn't entirely restricted by region...

but damn it, American upsets me!

Once again, I know it's not the origin of all the evils of the world, but for fuck sake it's trying hard to win that title it seems...

Alex said...

seriously how do you find all this news?

just read the article about the gay guy and the skinhead now working together, mazing... but how on earth did you find it? they would never show anything like that in any news that I can think of, and that's the main reason I dont read the news much.. nothing relevant
