Hundreds of Sacramento-area students rallied to support four students suspended for wearing anti-gay shirts. One participant said: "It's only going to get worse against Christians. We're going to get persecuted more and more. But those who stand to the end: God is going to save them." Um, right...
Sony's banking on Spider Man 3. Literally. Some insiders claim the flick cost $300 million to produce. No doubt, however, it'll make it back. And then some.
The International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission will honor Nepal's Blue Diamond Society for all their hard activist work. Unfortunately, they will not be honored with actual blue diamonds.
We've never quite understood Kate Moss and Pete Doherty's relationship. Now we do. And they're kind of cute. Still total nutters, but cute...
The fuzz may have been investigating theft at Atlanta's airport, but they found a bunch of horny gay men, instead. Now they're looking for more.
Regional lawyers have ruled that Latvia's City Council acted unjustly in barring last year's gay pride parade. Hoorah!
Maryland's House has passed a bill requiring health insurance companies to extend benefits to same-sex partners and children. The bill now needs to be signed by the governor to become a law. (We totally just had a School House Rock flashback.)
GLAAD's celebrating the tenth anniversary of Ellen Degeneres' coming out with a month full of flag-waving faggotry.
Sri Lanka may forbid homosexuality, but that's not stopping gay activists from planning a pride event. Trouble is, they don't have any money. Do you?
In an effort to make a more single friendly album, Madonna has joined forces with Justin Timberlake and uber-producer Timbaland. If they can't help her sales, no one can...
The House Judiciary Committee isn't fucking around with Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. They've just issued a subpoena for more documents regarding the allegedly illegal firing of federal prosecutors. Nail him to the wall, kids!
New York has agreed to extend benefits to employee's same-sex partners. About fucking time, no?
Mario Vasquez still claims he's not gay. But, of course, the interview took place before that whole sexual harassment lawsuit, so who knows...
Don Imus may have called them "nappy-headed hos", but the Rutgers Women's basketball team has agreed to have a little sit-down. We hope they give it to him good.
Robbie Williams may have ditched Take That! to embrace his bad boy image, but some are saying the recently rehabbed singer's mulling a musical reunion. Um, is that supposed to be a career booster or a death rattle?
21-year old Akino George has been sentenced to eight years in prison for his role in the beating of gay singer, Kevin Aviance. Like his violent cohorts, George copped a plea. Smart fucker...

Hello there. We hope you embark on a fun weekend during this time of the Spring Break. Here's a run-down of some of our favorite posts this week, to tide you over:
• Straight Guys Stroke Longer Than Gays.
• Massachusetts to allow discrimination based on religion. Doesn't everyone know that whenever a new law is voted into effect, religious organizations are exempt if they don't like the outcome? As if.
• No more knock-off bags for you, Miss Thing.
• 60 Minutes discusses the possibility of a "queen gene." For research, they spent a day in the Queerty offices and determined yes, there is one.
• Power Rangers Gone Wild on Sean Cody!
• Netherlands shows gay film to refugees. And they better like it, or it's back to the desert.
AND OF COURSE...
• Queerty wins the Bloggie! Thank you, thank you.
60 Minutes had an interesting piece on the origins of homosexuality last night. Basically, they looked at the origins of sexual orientation and found, you guessed it, it’s complicated. Still, they did come up with some interesting tidbits:
"The more older brothers a man has, the greater that man's chance of being gay," says Bailey.Asked if that's true, Bailey says, "That is absolutely true."
If this comes as a shock to you, you’re not alone. But it turns out, it’s one of the most solid findings in this field, demonstrated in study after study.
And that’s before they get to the right-handed, left-handed stuff. Still, it’s an interesting piece (you can read online). We just wonder what they were getting at when they did the part of 8 year-old Adam who showed the camera his Bratz Baby doll because we have one too. Does that prove we’re gay, too? No, it was probably the overly molested Ken doll we've had since we were five.
