Enrique Anarte uncovered the Spanish jails for tops and bottoms.
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.
@openlynews The Spanish state has never offered an official apology to the LGBTQ+ victims of Francisco Franco’s dictatorship, which include an estimated 5,000 gay and bi men and transgender women who were convicted under Spain’s former laws criminalising gay relations. #lgbtqhistory #queerhistory #historytok ♬ Stories 2 – Danilo Stankovic

Sam Cushing is insufferable

Stop appropriating AAVE terms like “code-switching,” Please don’t associate it with white people. Gay white men do not have the same struggles as black people. It’s similar but very different. You can still be gay and take full advantage of your whiteness, and weaponize it. Which history tells us has happened with BIPOC.
einekleinenacht
Hi, code switching is a general linguistic term to describe people’s ability to move between languages and dialects, first used in 1951 with regard to the indigenous people of California. Yes, AAVE speakers code switch, but so do many other underrepresented groups.
monty clift
@Godabed, Bore off.
James
Stop assuming all white people are entitled.
Pier
get over yourself. first of all this behavior has been around as long as the first peoples walked the earth. second.. not everything in life is racist or appropriating.
dbmcvey
“Code switching” originally referred to people switching languages based on the situation.
Diplomat
The list of douche laws in Florida is fkng nasty. Talk about intense. But then I think trans and NBs walking onto the scene with their porcupine suits with sharpened quills ablazing, dik bombing women’s spaces pushed the R to take action. And pushed out alot of dems like myself. They’ve ruined it for everybody.
Being corrected to say “y’all” instead of “ladies” to a group that all look like women??? Please. Do look in the mirror girls. No we’re not calling you y’all, ladies.
dbmcvey
Who is the “we” you refer to?
Diplomat
The general public.
ShaverC
I’m on Diplomat’s side. Gay people were fine… it’s everything after the LGB… that ruined it. It’s incredible how quickly people bought into this non-binary bull.
Vince
No they haven’t. They’re just the latest group to be attacked by the right. The Republican Party has no policies to help people but they sure know how to stir up their base.
ShiningSex
It’s ridiculous when one corrects another in a rude or a way that makes the person feel THEY SHOULD KNOW when a lot of people even in our community may not. Politely correcting one is ok, but when you get worked up over…I’ll say the wrong thing just to be a bitch like the person being the bitch in the first place. Lets worry about our rights first which is in REAL TROUBLE over pronouns. With no rights, you pronouns don’t mean sh*t. PRIORITIES PEOPLE!!!
monty clift
When they say “queer” people are fleeing, they just mean the trans/ bi whatever identity. It really has nothing to do with actual gay people.

@ShiningSex
The emphasis on neo-pronouns (like the absurd Singular They) is because non-binaryism only exists as a linguistic creation. Such a thing would require there being a male brain and female brain completely distinct. This is not the case. We all have brains that function as a mosaic. Non-binary is basically a fashion choice. Gay men like Jeffrey Marsh and Sam Smith do not exist in the center of some imaginary spectrum between male and female. They’re not even full-out drag queens.
Diplomat
Inbama,
There’s data aligning the trans/non binary explosion, to directly line up with GMOs being introduced into the food supply from the 50s forward, causing genetic mutations, girls with periods starting at 8 years old etc. This GMO genetic anonymoly could explain the female brain in male bodies and visa versa and all the grey spectral area inbetween, non binary etc. This data takes the imagination out of the equation i.e. the man who thinks he’s a woman then becomes scientifically plausible free from creative thinking.
PhillyProud
I used to think the gay community was pretty supportive and we had each others’ backs. I don’t know what it is about trans people that people like you think they don’t belong. You sound like you’re looking for an excuse to just be a republican. “Pushed you out”? You left because you sit in your privilege and can’t see that there are other members of our community who where we were 40 years ago. You’re done with your fight, so why bother helping anyone else, right? Nothing more disgusting than someone who’s been (and continues to be) marginalized, marginalizing someone else.
inbama
@PhillyProud
I fully support the civil and human rights of trans people. I do not, however, buy into pseudo-intellectual “Queer Theory” that imagines the human species not divided by its two sexes (male and female) but by trans and cis, that effeminate gay men and butch lesbians in half drag constitute a new gender called “non-binary” and have the right to demand their own made-up neo-pronouns, or that sex is irrelevant to the shaping, function and health of the human brain and body.
No one is homosexual because they “identified” as homosexual. You can “identify” as “queer” or live in the closet as “straight,” but the physical reality of your sexual orientation was set by early childhood whether the child is capable of understanding what that is or not. Most can’t.
Having its members buy into laughable ideology is not what “civil rights” organizations do. That’s a cult.
James
Get lost creep. Log cabin repulican nobody.
James
What a bunch of weak stinking republican homophobes posting above. As if any of you losers ever did anything for anybody.
dbmcvey
So many conservative hand puppets agreeing with themselves.
dbmcvey
Hey doplomat, not even a majority of Republicans agree with you.
monty clift
@PhillyProud, Sorry, but gay people are not obligated to support everything under the sun. Heterosexual trans/vestites are not an oppressed group, nor have they ever been. Trying to frame the situation as privileged people (the gay community) oppressing poor innocent (straights cross dressers) is grossly disingenuous.
Diplomat
Queerty,
The Hyundai ad with sound is totally annoying and a huge turn off.
dbmcvey
Just stop coming to the site.
ShiningSex
That Eras proposal is total cheese. I still don’t get her appeal to ADULTS.
Tyrd Banks is annoying
abfab
Then she’d be perfect for you!
Diplomat
Abfab,
When you grow a backbone maybe you could tell us and the gay community why you support bio males with woman brain dik bombing under age girls locker room showers, totally freaking them out. Feeling courageous today?
Diplomat
Anyone else feel free to stick up for yourselves. Silence only equals support for sexualy predatory acts by the trans community.
James
DIPLOMAT.
Get lost you pathetic loser.
Diplomat
James,
Is that the best you got coward?
I’m a Democrat dumbass. You can’t back up your support for male trans women sexualy abusing women?
You’re obviously a sexual predator yourself.
dbmcvey
And Diplomat and the other conservatives continue to make things up.
abfab
Dippy you got that wrong….you’re a dumbass democrat. Please leave the party now.
LegionKeign
Just so you know we aren’t all ladies, so you can just call us guys.
LOL!
mailliw110
Sure a lot of people looking for problems that don’t matter to them.
Mister P
What exactly is Dik bombing women’s spaces?
Is it really that a big of an imposition to use a person’s requested pronouns?
abfab
Diplomat.
Slandering will get you nowhere here. It can however land you in court with hefty fines and a possible jail sentence. Calling anyone a child predator with zero evidence is not advisable. A warning.
Diplomat
Oh abless,
Only you could take the twerp award for the most acid tongue on the net. Still no backbone I see. That’s cool. Jellyfish have their place too.
mz.sam
Down with the trolls and haterz. Sam Cushing is a total Hottie!! He needs to include an OF site for all of his fans.
abfab
Yeah, I thought it was great. Fun boy. Talented and very handsome. And fun! And very accurate.
Diplomat
Yup. Down with girl’s locker room Trans trolls.
I’d sign right up for an OF x rated Sam Cushing blitz. He’s got it all though a check under the hood woodie be an inspection must.
DBMC
Diplomat was traumatized by “Silence of the Lambs.”
Diplomat
Nope. It was The Exorcist.
Seth
That “guys” is acceptable while “ladies” is not from a non-binary standpoint hurts my head.
Diplomat
It was y’all, not guys. Better?
