The movies that made them gay
In the spirit of the Oscars, we asked each of our editors to share the movie that most moved them as young LGBTQ+ people. And while the Academy overlooked most (but not all) of these titles the year they were released, they still hold a special place in our hearts and always will.

Father who killed his son because he was gay let out of jail after two years behind bars
A father who is accused of killing his own son for being gay has been placed on house arrest. Now the victim’s mother is speaking out.
In 2017, Giovanni Melton, 17, was shot and killed in Henderson, Nevada. His father Wendell Melton was arrested because police believed that he was responsible for the murder.
Now a judge has let Wendell Melton out on $200,000 bail and placed him on house arrest as he awaits trial.
“I felt betrayed,” said Veronica Melton, Giovanni Melton’s mother.

Jail for woman who posed as man on Grindr and stalked young male couple
A judge has jailed a woman who posed as a gay man on Grindr then harassed a man and falsely accused his boyfriend of being a pedophile.
The woman used multiple identities to harass the couple. She circulated private sexual images and even sent men looking for sex to their house.
Yannick Glaudin, 31, carried out her campaign of harassment in the UK and she pleaded guilty to all the offenses in July 2018. But she evaded justice for over a year by then fleeing to her native France.
However, French authorities extradited her back to Britain in January under a European arrest warrant. And she appeared before a judge at the Inner London Crown Court in Southwark, south London.

New Bill Would Criminalize Revealing the Truth About Sex and Identity
Identification Chaos
SB 59 would allow someone to secretly change his or her sex and name together after committing a crime. If a law enforcement officer found official records of their original identity, that officer would be legally prohibited from sharing those records, even in court. People whose sex and accompanying name are tied to past actions or crimes change their sex and a different name, and anyone who shows documentation of the change could be punished. Letting anybody secretly change their sex on official documents at any time radically undermines identity verification and will endanger Californians.

WHY GAY MEN LOVE HOOKING UP WITH STRAIGHT DUDES
It’s not that Alex, a gay 26-year-old man from New York City, seeks out straight men to hook up with — they simply flock to him in droves. “As someone who is very effeminate and nonconforming, gay men don’t really look for me,” he says. But hetero guys? “I can’t even keep count of how many straight men I’ve fucked. The limit doesn’t exist!”
How “straight” these men are isn’t exactly clear, but according to what scant research exists on heterosexual men who have sex with queer guys, it’s not an emotional or physical attraction that draws them to us (or at least they won’t admit that it is). Rather, as Jane Ward, an associate professor of women’s studies at the University of California, Riverside lays out in her 2015 book Not Gay: Sex Between Straight White Men, straight men hook up with other guys to “reaffirm their masculinity” (and whiteness). Other research, like this 2018 study published in the journal Sexualities, finds that straight guys see queer men as “living dildos” or “disembodied objects of desire that provide sexual pleasure.”

Nightclub allegedly kicked out patrons for being too gay
“A club employee came to see me around 11:45pm to tell me regular customers think we don’t have a place here. Some clients found our clothes turbulent, our dance movements turbulent, but especially our people were annoyed. So the employee asked us to leave before the battle was over,”

Doctor Who: Barrowman Thanks Fans for "Countless Messages of Support"
Barrowman was set to join David Bradley aka William Hartnell's First Doctor in the West End production but past allegations of inappropriate behavior resurfaced via a 2014 video where Barrowman's Doctor Who co-star Noel Clarke (who is facing his own allegations) discussed Barrowman exposing himself on the set. From there, Big Finish made its move, saying in a statement, "Big Finish has taken the decision to remove 'Torchwood: Absent Friends' from the Monthly Range release schedule and has no plans to publish this title at this time."

The online discourse about twinks & their place in the world just took a very esoteric turn
A more contemporary theory about the adaption of “twink” traces its birth to the iconic American snack cake. Twinkies, with their smooth golden exterior and creamy filling, are simultaneously delicious and decadent.
Filled with chemicals and artificial sugars, they offer no nutritional value. But they endure, because they’re tasty and fun!

Buena Vista Park is a center of the gay cruising renaissance
Running parallel to those public-facing elements of LGBTQ culture in San Francisco are traditions like cruising — seeking out public places frequented by queer people looking for consensual sex from suitors, usually afforded by way of a reciprocated gaze and gesture. The history of cruising dates back to the 1810s in England, but it wasn’t until the 1960s that cruising had its hyperlocal bloom as SF became the gay capital of America.

Counsellor Suggests Gay Parents More Likely To Abuse Kids
Cheryl Parrott, a counsellor at Rich Relationships Counselling in Sydney, Australia, implied same-sex relationships could be unsafe for children, in comments made public on Tuesday.
“Research has shown that children are safest in their biological families. That the highest rate of child abuse is usually perpetrated by an adult not the biological parent of a child,” she wrote.
“In a same sex relationship one (if not both) of the adults will not be the biological parent of that child.”

Another study shows homophobic language isn’t linked to rejection of gay athletes
Another new study from Monash University again demonstrates that athletes using gay slurs don’t mean to convey messages of homophobia to their teammates, and in fact believe their teams would be welcoming places for gay athletes.
The study focused on 146 semi-professional ice hockey players in Australia. The sample group included a good mix of players from North America, Europe and Australia.
One of the most illuminating parts of the study looked at why athletes use gay slurs. Some of the results:
55% because they want to make people laugh
46% think the language is normal, so no one thinks about it
6% want to insult or bully others who are gay
1% say they are homophobic
