Here are 7 things that won’t de-gay you (but might make you crazy)

by Devil’s Food Cake

YOU GUYS, how about them bus ads? In case you hadn’t heard, there are some serious right-wing nutjobs trying to upstage their American counterparts by claiming that they can cure homosexuality with some good, old-fashioned intensive therapy (and buying adspace for this madness on London buses). Forget about all the things we’ve heard before about why this doesn’t work – and why it is, in fact, incredibly harmful – homosexuals are evil, dammit, and there must be a way to cure them! … Continue Reading

Are you free today? Go to Gay’s The Word

by Devil’s Food Cake

If you’ve got a spare minute today and have the ability to get up to Bloomsbury, pay a visit to everyone’s favourite (only) gay bookshop. In the course of last night, and possibly because of the riots that have been taking place over the last couple of days, Gay’s The Word’s shop window was egged and smashed in. … Continue Reading

New York legalises gay marriage; soon I will start to openly weep

by Devil’s Food Cake

Something momentous happened today. After a really long, really hard slog, New York senators voted 33-29 to legalise gay marriage in New York state. Of these, 4 of the senators were Republican, which has already prompted the anti-gay National Organisation for Marriage to pledge $2 million to having these senators defeated at elections in 2012. … Continue Reading

London SlutWalk: we came, we saw, it was awesome.

by Devil’s Food Cake

There’s really something about a good protest, isn’t there? And as they go, the London SlutWalk was fantastic – a great turnout, a wonderful atmosphere, enlightening speeches, and inspirational attendees. The crowd was a delightful mix – gay women, straight women, gay men, straight men, people in costume, people with placards, lions and tigers and bears – oh my! … Continue Reading

Questions for a feminist: can I listen to Chris Brown without being a traitor?

Questions for a feminist: can I listen to Chris Brown without being a traitor?

by Devil’s Food Cake

You guys, Chris Brown is one sneaky mofo. There I was, minding my own business, being a perfectly good feminist (and an otherwise adequate person) and then, out of nowhere, this song came on the radio. I mean, it was great, I totally fell for it – it was in my head all the time and if it came on the radio, my spirits would be instantly lifted. I loved it – and at this point, I was entirely convinced it was Taio Cruz I was listening to (what? They sound kind of the same). … Continue Reading

Is mad the new gay?

by Muffin

There are certain questions that are unlikely to be answered in any book of etiquette. For one, what is the correct way to inform your boss/colleagues/any new acquaintances that you are not heterosexual? Arrive at the office one day wearing an “I love K.D. Lang” T-shirt? Possibly, but somewhat lacking in finesse. … Continue Reading

The greatest gay icons of all time – what the hell does that even mean?

by Devil’s Food Cake

A poll carried out by the Orange County Equality Project has named Britney Spears the greatest gay icon of all time (OF ALL TIME). Spears beat out Madonna and Lady Gaga – second and third respectively – to top the poll, in which 1000 gay men all over Southern California were asked to who they considered the greatest gay icon. Forgive me for pointing out the obvious, but THEY’RE NOT EVEN GAY. … Continue Reading

Save our libraries… day of protest TODAY!

by Sticky Toffee Pudding

Books. Where would the world be without them? It is literally my DREAM to have my own library once I’m finally ready to jump on the property ladder. I couldn’t give a rats arse about the actual house, providing there is a room which I can turn into my own little Foyles (and who knows maybe the hot lady from behind the counter in the cafe will be there too). … Continue Reading

Gay hate speech: first prosecution brought.

by Devil’s Food Cake

In the first ever prosecution of its kind, two men are to be prosecuted for incitement to hatred on the basis of sexual orientation. The two men were caught handing out leaflets outside a mosque in Derby in July 2010, which were headed “The Death Penalty?”. According to a report from The Guardian, the leaflet called for the execution of gay people, and was slipped through letterboxes in the area that same month. … Continue Reading
