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...

U.S. skater Johnny Weir’s sexuality has garnered far more interest from the world than any of the televised Olympic sporting events. In print, he’s been called everything from “flamboyant” to a name he’s given himself; “Tinkerbell.” We think it's after Paris' toy dog and not Peter Pan's own personal floating light bulb. Naturally, Weir’s refusal to acknowledge his true sexuality has everyone intrigued. All of a sudden the media is giving the twink a ton of ink.
Weir is "teaching us all a lesson: that it doesn't matter, and that if the question is repeatedly asked, it says more about the questioner than it does the answerer. And when that questioner is a journalist, another question needs to be asked: Is there something in the reporter that needs examining? I think many of them look at this topic as just titillating, and it's an issue for them, not necessarily for the athletes."
We don’t even know why anyone is still wasting their time in trying to figure out if Weir’s gay. As if it’s really at all necessary, we present this video as all of the proof you will ever need.
Somehow we feel confident in saying he’ll end up on the cover of The Advocate by the end of the year.

We truly had to do a double take when we saw the picture above. Just look at that hair, that leotard, those legs. We were convinced Madonna had entered the ice skating competition at the Olympics. Until we saw the pretty girl's face. Not the face of a botoxed hussy approaching 50.
She inspired young girls in the 1980s to wear wedding dresses and rosaries. And all these years later, they’re still dressing like her.

Olympic figure skater Johnny Weir has won us over; tonight he is performing a la Bjork in a swan costume. Add into the mix this photo shoot, shot by America’s Next Top Model judge Nigel Barker, and you have a very gay and equally cute Morning Goods candidate.
