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.

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...

The Biggest Yet!

Less than a month since axing the majority of their sale's staff, HX Media's at it again, this time trimming down their Expo Division.

In case you're not in the gay media mix, the Expo Division used to be Consolidated Management Associates - a name that got scrapped once HX Media merged with gay publishing giant, Window Media. Regardless of title, the division has spent the last nine years organizing the freaktastic Gay Life Expo and the pervtastic Gay Erotic Expo.

What's more notable about this case is the fact that HX Founder Matthew Bank fired a man named Steven Levenberg: a nice Jewish boy who's spent the last nine years toiling for Matthew Bank and his bank account.

10%

Let’s face it; the majority of sites that offer free e-cards for you to send friends and loved ones feature a Hallmark view of the universe which, though appropriate in some situations, is as bland as a plain rice cake and twice as likely to put you to sleep. 10 Percent comes to our queer rescue with free e-cards for both gay men and lesbians for a variety of occasions. Do you want to send a Happy Birthday card that shows two right-on women embracing in the surf? This is the place for you. Do you want to send a Thank You card that leaves little doubt which package you’re saying thanks for? Again, 10 Percent is the place for you. The most popular e-cards in the line are those from the House of Morecock. Whether you’re top, bottom, or in between, these e-cards will help you remind the receivers just exactly what your orientation is.

The San Francisco Chronicle today published a story stating the gay community of San Francisco "is unwelcoming" and "that isolation can lead to depression, which itself can lead to substance use and abuse and risky sexual behavior."

Folsom Street

My personal experience living in San Francisco was just the opposite. While the story's stats on HIV do ring true, I found the gay community in San Francisco the warmest I have ever experienced. Whether drinking in the Castro, carving turkeys at Glide on Thanksgiving, or celebrating sexuality at Folsom Street there seems to be a strong sense of self-expression and community there. People appreciate food, the arts, culture, and history.

San Franciscans smile on the street, volunteer, and take pride in their city and neighborhoods. I think that the city welcomes newcomers with open arms and that is why it is such a destination for many.
