• John Roberts – the same man who brought us Jackie & Debra – has done it again. Send this one along to your mom. Especially if you’re not out yet. It’ll help her work through it…
• Ivan Marrow, the gay businessman who alleges Zurich Life ruined his business, may love being gay, but he wishes he were born straight.
• Ex-Idol on Sanjaya Malakar on I Love New York 2? Or does TMZ just think all Indian people look alike?
• Can the church save Jamaica‘s homos? According to American lesbian Reverend Nancy Wilson, yes: “We have strong allies in heterosexual church leaders here, but sometimes they are afraid to speak out for fear of being criticized by others, and so I met with many of them this week and say you have to come out and tell the others that they don’t speak for all of you.”
How about we take this to the next level?

• Hey, wanna see pictures of Lindsay Lohan snorting coke? Look no further.
• Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty vetoed the state’s domestic partnership bill. Outfront Minnesota executive director Ann DeGroot ain’t happy: “This veto is not good government. It’s the state telling local governments what they can and cannot do. We thought the governor supported local control. The governor has chosen to make a political point over good public policy.” No wonder Pawlenty is GOP presidential candidate John McCain’s election committee co-chair.

Ivan Marrow’s article was whiny and meandering. He goes off on victim tangents and much of what he says doesn’t even make sense. The title of his ridiculous piece is almost an oxymoron. Yeah, you love being gay? Is that why you wish you weren’t?
Paul Raposo
Yeah, I agree with Ash, the article was a tad odd. I’m not even sure what point he wanted to make with it.
Mr. B
Agree completely with previous commenters–Mr. Marrow’s article was rife with self-pity and ambiguous internalized homophobia. The message I came away with with was somewhere between “I think my homosexuality is a birth defect and it’s ruined my life and why can’t I be normal?” and “I screw men, but I’m not one a’ them faggots.” Meandering, indeed–I think this rant would have been better suited for the therapist’s office.
