Mitt Romney Accidentally Confronts A Gay Veteran; Awesomeness Ensues
HOLY SMACKDOWN, BATMAN. This guy is awesome, totally gives it to Romney. WHOOP!
I love that it was that one question that made this man decide just who he was going to vote for. This should tell Romney all he needs to know about his beliefs on same-sex marriage. Because I’ll tell you what, that vet? IS AWESOME.
lol
Ouch
Holy shit I love this dude
Mitt Romney should be president of talking yourself into a corner and refusing to be open to a basic discussion.
I’m not crying it’s just raining on my face.
lol at the slow descent of the “oh fuck” look across romney’s face

Progress for LGBT Americans - OBAMA
Even though I am not American, and Obama certainly is not a perfect president (but, really, who’s perfect?), I still admire this man for what he achieved so far. And I really hope that he’ll get a chance to achieve even more.

Maryland will vote on marriage in November
The signatures have been counted: anti-marriage equality activists in Maryland have officially gathered enough signatures to put marriage equality to a vote in November.
Maryland passed a law for marriage equality earlier this year, but opponents immediately organized. They needed to gather more than 55,000 signatures to put a possible repeal on the ballot, and more than 70,000 valid signatures have been counted. But that doesn’t mean marriage equality advocates aren’t gearing up for a fight:
Marylanders for Marriage Equality, the coalition leading the campaign, announced today a long list of moves it has made to stop the repeal. It includes opening two campaign offices, hiring 12 field staffers, expanding its social media presence, and commissioning a poll that found Maryland voters overwhelmingly on the side of equality. Public Policy Polling found that 57% of voters would uphold the law and that African-Americans had made a huge swing after President Obama announced his support for marriage equality.
The “faith team” has already recruited a stable of religious leaders who are on its side to counter voices on the right who claim a monopoly on biblical views. It’s a similar tactic to one being employed in Minnesota, where dozens of faith leaders are speaking out for marriage equality as just another example of the “love and commitment” that all marriages represent. That message has resulted in a 10-point swing in four months, according to a PPP poll, with independents driving fresh support for same-sex marriage. Now 49% of voters are against amending the Minnesota constitution to ban same-sex marriage.Okay, Maryland readers. Looking at you on this one. We can’t let this go. We can win this.

"For a while, the gay thing seemed like such a big deal. But now, I don’t think it is. It’s just a comedy-drama about people who live in the United States. It’s a slice-of-life. I play a character—thats it. But I was well aware of gay lifestyle before the show. I’ve been hit on in a really strong way by gay men who’ve tried to convert me, and a lot of my heroes are gay. William Burroughs. Lou Reed. Well, I guess Lou Reed is bi. The point is, it’s 2002, gay life is no longer that shocking."

It’s 2012 - and being gay/gay life style appears to be a “shocking” thing now (so much so, as it still makes the “news”).
So either the world went backwards, or Gale was just wrong TEN YEARS AGO.
This makes me sad.

Schwulenfreundlichkeit als Feigenblatt? Tel Aviv schmückt sich in Regenbogenfarben
Tel Aviv erstrahlt eine ganze Woche lang in Regenbogenfarben: In der “Pride Week” feiern Homosexuelle und ihre Freunde, mit voller Unterstützung der israelischen Politik. Das trifft aber auch auf Skepsis: Kritiker werfen der Regierung vor, die Schwulen zu instrumentalisieren.
