The Guardian reports on the sex exhibit that recently opened in Britain: “…we live in a world that fears erotically charged images. Pornography is loathed even as it is consumed.

But all failed to note that Gray has a long history of climate skepticism and attacks on Gore.

93-year-old pens gay romance novel: ” Mr Soper only decided to write the novel after ‘coming out' at the age of 91 – and only told his fellow residents at the The Old Vicarage nursing home, in Moulsford, where he lives, after they asked to read his novel.
