Question: If a gay rights group's plans to crash the White House Easter Egg Roll are supposedly covert, then why are they all over the Internet? Soulforce News Release: "On April 17, 2006, when the White House lawn is opened to families for the Annual Easter Egg Roll, imagine if the first 1,000 families onto the lawn were LGBT [lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender] families. Once America sees the White House lawn awash in LGBT families, there will be no going back."

WB planning Beauty and the Geek spin-off featuring smart average women and dumb attractive guys. Incidentally, if you haven't caught Beauty and the Geek this season, set your DVR. It's a show with a good heart. I thought it was good last year, but they've changed it up a bit this year and it's even better.
Is Brokeback the Best Western, or is Best Western the best place to have gay sex marathons?
Advertising via satellite: Target painting store roofs in effort to attract attention on Google maps.
"Rainbow Flag Imperialism" doesn't work for Japan's gays: "People don't come out in Japan, they come in. The tendency is to find your own space. You don't need to come out to your parents or boss, it's not about how exposed you can be. It's about coming in, like joining a club. You find your own niche. That's what mainstream Japan is like with sexuality."

Regarding the attacks on gay dubliners, what the examiner failed to say was that the area where all these attacks are occuring is a cruising area and has long been a very risky one at that. There have been countless campaigns within the LGBT community here for men to avoid this particular area because of the violent attacks and muggings, but some men continue to frequent the area.
There have been a number of incidents reported recently, highlighting the need for more CCTVs and better lighting around one or two venues in particular, but thus far little has been done.

If anti-gay attackers are going hunting for gays in these particular places because of the concentration of gays there and the remoteness or isolation of the location, instead of telling gays to stay away maybe they should encourage more to come so attackers would fear their behaviors being witnessed by others. Lord knows you can never have a wide enough circle jerk.
