Literary omissions: "The New York Times' Book Review's list of the year's 100 notable books does at least have Alan Hollinghurst's excellent The Stranger's Child, but it overflows with predictable, middle-grade, straight fare, and it omits nearly every LGBT favorite of the year in fiction and nonfiction."
Jared Polis: Gay Coloradan parent.
J Edgar Hoover outed my godfather: "I had a feeling growing up — and later, as I realized I was gay, and came to terms with it in my 40s — that something must have happened to my godfather. He had disappeared from my childhood. The only memory I have is of him driving away, in a convertible. I was just 8 when Hoover outed him. I didn't know what had broken the relationship. It wasn't until the early '90s, when I asked if my parents thought he had been gay, that they told me of his death, and of one night, in a Spanish restaurant in Tampa, when they were shocked to see Arthur emerge from behind the curtain of a private dining nook with a tipsy young airman. In all those years, they had never spoken of it, even to each other."

Kansas Equality coalition seeks repeal of state's sodomy law: "Under Kansas law, homosexual sex is a criminal offense. But a 2003 decision by the U.S. Supreme Court says that laws that criminalize gay and lesbian relationships violate the equal protection provisions of the U.S. Constitution. 'We believe that the current statute, while ultimately unenforceable, is an affront to thousands of law-abiding gay and lesbian Kansans,' said Thomas Witt, chairman of the Kansas Equality Coalition."

Alan Cumming to star in one-man adaptation of Macbeth for the National Theatre of Scotland: “I have been obsessed with the play all my life. It was the first Shakespeare I was in, at the Tron in Glasgow. Speaking to John Tiffany in New York, earlier this year, I had this idea I wanted to swap the roles of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth, because there are so many things about gender, I thought it would be a really exciting idea to flip that. So we did this reading like that, in New York, and Andy Goldberg had this idea I should just play all the parts. Never one to refuse a challenge, we decided to do it.”

Fourth Gay Pride takes place in Delhi, India: "The parade that commenced from Barakambha Road and culminated at Jantar Mantar caused a major stir as passers-by and traffic came to a halt trying to catch a glimpse of the colourful participants. Like each year, free masks, rainbow coloured scarves, flags, badges, whistles, candies etc were distributed. The masks were particularly for closet gays – those who have not disclosed their sexual orientation or gender. For 25-year-old Anshuman Singh, the masks were a must till last year's parade as he was a closet gay. But after revealing his sexual preference to his family earlier this year, he has 'broken the shackles'." (Video report HERE)
