Antigay activists would have the world believe that the union of two people of the same gender somehow conjures up the devil himself, inciting the end times and taking down the whole ship in a blazing glory of fire, brimstone and sin — mostly sin.
And they never seem to shut up about it.
But what we just can’t wrap our heads around at the end of the day is: Why?

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
Below, YouTuber Garzilly shares a video tribute he made for his father who recently married his partner of 26 years.
There’s nervous excitement, family bonding, happy babies and love abounding.
“After 26 years, my dad and Ricky finally made things official,” Garzilly wrote. “Believe it or not, two men got married, and the world didn’t end. It was an amazing day.”

How someone can watch it and jump to the conclusion that something is wrong with the picture is beyond us. And hey, as long as people keep saying gay people are possessed by fart demons and infiltrating Starbucks with semen lattes, we’ll keep reporting it.
But the rest of us can continue to feel good that marriage equality is bringing families together:

So beautiful. Love is love. Love always wins. Just sad it took this long to undue some of the damage religion brings. Hopefully one day religion is abolished completely and we can start living delusion free lives.

As someone who married his partner of 28 years, two years ago, it is always wonderful to see a gay couple, no matter how long they have been together, getting married.
In November 2013, we lived in FL, where at the time, it was not legal to get married here. We flew to Boston, rented a car, and drove to RI to get married. It was a wonderful feeling to hear the words you may kiss your spouse. (We chose the term “spouse” as we did not want to be either “husband” or “wife”)
Seeing these two guys getting married, and the son being so supportive is a wonderful scene. It is something that should be a daily routine, no big deal, situation, rather than something unusual.
God bless them, and their son. May they have many many more years together.
