By: Jim D'Entremont

Singing Out, Acting Up
By: Jim D'Entremont
| |
The gay community seemed resigned to
being doomed as long as they were in Iceland. Most gay men I knew at that time went abroad to have fun at gay saunas and gay bars, and they spoke about them as clerics speak about God. |

Phallic Fantastic
By: Jim Larkins

Despite the many gains over the past 20 years in
terms of gay people being integrated into society at

advances have often come at too high a cost. |

Sexy Like a Graveyard

Gay porn stars often hit the circuit, making guest appearances at bars, baths, and gay events to meet fans and drum up interest in their flicks. What'll they do now that they have to compete for attention with
muscle-bound morticians? |

Name & Shame
| |
The gay movement's success-- like the North's victory over the slaveholding South in the American Civil War-- has produced huge and burning resentments. America today doesn't
have much in the way of lynchings or a Ku Klux Klan-- these long-lived bastard-children of that terrible war. But that's just because post-1960s resentment has aerosolized, like hairspray,
with the resulting flammable fog set alight by the right-wing. |

Not a Polish Joke
| |
Poland legalized homosex in 1932, and prostitution is not a crime. But with the election of a hard-right government last October, Poland stands out today in Europe for most
thoroughly weaving anti-gay sex hysteria into its politics. |

Sex Panics North-American Style
By: Tom Reeves
| |
The same day last summer Canada's parliament voted for gay marriage, it also passed a censorship bill that could send readers of online erotic fiction-- anywhere in the world-- to prison in Canada for years. An even more draconian anti-porn law is set to pass US Congress this
month. As progress for formal gay equality marches on, so does a vicious anti-sex backlash, centered on 'protecting children.' A throwback to an earlier time? |

Falling Bodies
| |
Anyone who thinks the gay movement has carved out safe space for homosex amongst consenting adults should think twice-- all across the country right-wing politicians,
ambitious prosecutors, and unscrupulous media are once again targeting adult gay men for prosecution under archaic anti-sex laws and life-destroying media smears. Are we rushing back to
the persecution and paranoia of the 1950s? Consider these cases: |

Bloggers to the Barricades
| |
You've probably already seen this picture. The July 19 torture and execution-by-hanging by Iranian authorities of two teenage boys convicted in a homosexual-sex case showed the
power of bloggers to set the gay agenda-- and unleash gusts of bytes and pixels in which mainline groups end up blowing and twisting. |
