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...

A Very Nerve-y Look At Everyone's Favorite Fag-Rag

BUTTMARCH07.jpg
We’ve loved BUTT since we discovered our own... Well, okay, that’s not true. We’ve loved BUTT since its 2001 inception. And it’s grown like a five-year old, too. Only bigger. BUTT’s so big, in fact, even straight men have been turned on to the Amsterdam-based pink-papered lit-porn fag rag.

Nerve's Sarah Sundberg writes:

I began to notice Butt surfacing in unexpected places. The first time it happened it barely registered — a straight friend mentioned he liked the irreverent style of BUTT's bedside interviews.
...
Suddenly it seemed to be everywhere... BUTT, the gayest magazine in existence, is achieving name-recognition that signals more than simple crossover appeal — it is sincerely resonating with straight men.
How queer...

Intends To Look Good As He's Washed Into Boiling Ocean

The news totally gets us down. So, in order to bring a little fashionable light into our lives, we headed on over to Refinery 29 to see what they have cooking. Imagine our elation when we came across The Power Issue subject, Gert Jonkers: publisher of fantastic fag-rag, BUTT.

Profiled in the website's "Hot For..." section, Jonkers tells the reader that he's recently adopted a " bourgeois" aesthetic and can't wait to see more Henley tank-tops out and about. Why is he so psyched about that particular item? Because the Amsterdam-based homo's positively itching for warm weather:

I'm really ready for some sun right now, and I love sunshine in general. I think it's okay to care about the environment and to switch off the light when you go out and stuff, but if global warming would lead to warmer summers and more sun, I'm all for it!
Well at least now we know who to blame...
