Happy Endings: Gay Cowboy Movie Isn’t So Gay

• First Jake played down the queer factor in Brokeback Mountain. Now Heath attempts to make it appear like the straightest gay love story ever told.

• Madge loves the gays so much she’s producing a Melrose Place-type drama for Logo.

• In our opinion there’s only one person who should be banned from the boy scouts. He’s the guy wearing a sequined glove, plastic nose and carries a chimp named Bubbles.

• A novel aimed at teens, which involves meetings between gays over the Internet, has been banned in a Tacoma-area school district due to its “casual and loose approach to sex” and not because it’s a book about a bunch of queers in high school. No, really.

• Last week the city of Poznan, Poland denied a LGBT group a permit for a pride march saying it would “be a serious danger to social order and property.” Supporters showed up anyway and were promtply arrested. Whew. The threat to Poland’s frail social order is over.
