As for all the other things – redesign is okay, but I look forward to seeing the next iteration.

Keep up the good work! Queerty is spreading fast among the internet gays, and beyond!

It amuses me how uninformed many gay men can be about lesbian turn-ons. Queer women don’t have the same option, since we are continually bombarded with visuals designed to appeal to men.

Personally, my “type” is found at some point in the vast spectrum between the arched-back cowgirls and Rosie O’Donnell.

just because I ve kept silent doesn’t mean I liked it, like this interview suggests…

@ko:
I agree. Also, “…After all, your logo does seem to be lesbian-inclusive.” THANK YOU. This is a point I made in my post in the questions thread that was screened and deleted by queerty for god knows what reason. Queerty, you going to get back to me on that one? Emailed you last week…

@RainaWeather:
I have to say… Thonged cow girls with ridiculous make-up totally do it for me… Actually, no.

Oh please, I’ve never had positive experiences AT ALL. And this is from someone who has 80% been with more white then black people due to circumstances beyond his control.

Damn, I have some stories!!

That are exactly with what GN is trying to say….but I’m an equal opp, so I don’t think the sun shines out of black gays and that’s were you see the light.

People are people.

I understand you may not agree with Afrolito, but your argument and attempt to “keep it real” was clearly meant to reinforce what he said. Let’s keep it really real by citing the overwhelming number examples in your lifetime of gays of all races being kind and endearing for the most part. Why can’t we keep it real with positive experiences you and some of your (I’m assuming black) friends have had with white gays which no doubt outnumber the bad by a large margin? Or would that be keeping it fake?

Why don’t you email David?? What can Japhy who can’t say enough times that he doesn’t design this site tell you??

I have posted many, many times about the new photo gallery format. I wish you would have responded to that question. Also, feel free to contact me directly.

Yeah- that’s hard to believe. There are a ton of gay black sites out there if you google them. So the idea that you can’t find any is hard to believe. Same with Asians and Latinos. I am equal opportunity (I fuck any race) – if I am able to find them, then I find it hard to believe you cannot.

Not being attracted to a certain race doesn’t make you a racist.

I don’t think Lux8600 is racist or ignorant. I think it has different tastes and unfortunately doesn’t know how to communicate effectively and properly without offense. It would have just been easy to say, I dig the morning goods the way it is, the others aren’t my type. But by Lux8600 saying “yikes”, there is a inference of disgust. So racist. Naw. Ignorant. Naw. Offensive and trash. Pretty much and quite possibly.

Just my 2 cents.

I meant to say i’m not buying your answers.

This is why we need a self edit feature.

“As far as black or yellow dudes, umm, they would have to be off the chart exceptional to buzz my briefs, specially Asians, yikes, that just won’t happen.”

You are an ignorant, racist piece of trash. I hope you choke on your stupidity.

Thanks for answering my questions Japhy, but i’m not buying them.

I don’t for one minute believe it’s that difficult to find hot black, ASIAN, and latino men for the morning goods. You can find plenty at the same places you steal all the other pics from. Yes, there definitely is aryan standard set by gay white photogs, but it doesn’t mean you have to accept it. I’ll send you some links.

I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt about not purposefully scapegoating black people as the sole arbiters of homo-repression, but the negative stories about black people here, far outweigh the positive imo, and only feed into the already pervasive racism in the gay community.

Thanks Japhy.

For a writing/editing staff of one, you produce an amazing amount of content and when I have a chance to visit your site, I enjoy the mix of content.

Regarding your “beef” with Lorri Jean for supposedly not agreeing to an interview with you. I still have a copy of our last email exchange in which I told you I would consider arranging such an interview. In fact, as you’ll recall, I’m the one who first suggested such an interview. Lorri has done interviews with every journalist who has requested one and has participated in several town hall meetings, at which anyone has been able to ask her a question.

But Japhy, you’ve shown no interest in the Center’s marriage equality work.

We’ve pitched you many times to make your readers aware of the opportunity to join hundreds of other volunteers for our door-to-door canvassing as we change hearts and minds about marriage equality and gather valuable data regarding messages that are effective in persuading people to support our freedom to marry.

The Center has been doing this work for more than 4 years – one day I’d love for you to accept our invitation to join us.

For those reading this, I’ll make a plug now: please join us for tomorrow’s (Saturday’s) canvass – details can be found at: http://www.VoteForEquality.org. We provide training before you start – it’s something anyone can do! In fact, right now you can find a story about our canvassing work at Advocate.com, featuring Kathy Griffin who volunteered with us last month.

I had also hoped you would have shared with your readers information about the Center’s video contest: http://www.lagaycenter.org/ProjectPushback, through which we hope to inspire the development of 60-second videos that have the potential to change hearts and minds in support of marriage equality. A fantastic panel of judges will award $2,500 to the creator of the video they select as the best.

If you now have an interest in not only asking Lorri whatever questions she can answer about the campaign, but sharing with your readers opportunities for them to get more involved in promoting marriage equality, let’s set it up!

And if you have written about the initiatives I’ve mentioned, and I somehow missed it, please accept my apology and let me know where I can find the stories.

Best,
JIM

JIM

too much information, trash.
you are what’s wrong w/america.

You should mail the Queerty folk some examples. Just a suggestion. Maybe this?

@scott ny’er (formely scott): I’d take Rosie in a bikini over the cowgirl pic. And I’m not even joking.

Rule of thumb, as far as I know, is that all the long, drawn out posts with big words seems to be Japhy and the gossipy and short posts and half naked men (Morning Goods the exception) is David.

No idea where “Cord Jefferson” fits in.

Michael, you do realize that was David Hauslaibs post not Japhys right? Oh thats right, you dont.

You should get your information sorted before making a comment.

Queerty needs Rosie O’Donnell in a bikini. Or s&m gear like in that movie of hers.

I keed. I keed.

thanks japhy.

maybe we can get a drink at pieces sometime, hehe

Hate the new design.

Is that a picture of the Queerty staff taking a shower? Looks like you have fun at work if it is!

The point is not just to find “hot ladies” on the internet, but hot ladies that cater more towards the lesbian gaze rather than the hetero male gaze. It would be great to see that on Queerty, say, once a month or so.

I remember twice in all the years I’ve been reading this site that women were used for morning goods. It was a nice gesture to your female readers. After all, your logo does seem to be lesbian-inclusive.

And college wrestlers, yum.
