Gay Love & Romance

Your mom won't accept you as gay. If you die in the ghetto, it means nothing. If you die in uniform, it means something to someone somewhere. So you join the Marine Corps. Your fellow recruits discover you're gay when they see your ERECTION in the communal shower. You're beat up & ostracized. But you hang in there. Slowly other trainees start to defend you.  One of the drill sergeants takes up for you when the other instructors join the gay taunting & mistreatment. You misinterpret that as your drill sergeant is secretly gay. Maybe. In the final field exercise, you follow him into the shower. You make a pass. He didn't help you because you're gay. He helped you because it's his job to help recruits. You are not the first gay Marine. Your ghetto mom shows up to Basic Training graduation. She forgets you're gay. When reminded, she makes a scene in the dining hall & calls you out as gay. The crowd chant their support for you. Your mom regrets she di...

It's all in my mind  The world of days gone by Bloody sunrise in your eyes  I'm blinded. I realize  You're not a fantasy  It's all in my mind  What we used to do  Back when you loved me And I loved you In a clandestine sort of way So many poems  So many songs Artifacts of history  Our love cannot be wrong  I'm so happy you're my reality  The world of days gone by  I see them in your eyes  All my dreams came true At last when I met you  Still standing by my side.

Straight actor plays a gay role. The in-depth discussion reveals strange realities.  (A) Theater & Hollywood are full of gay people. Yet somehow only straight people can be found for gay roles. James Sutton is to be commended for not expressing contempt at gay men. (B) Nostalgia for the bad times of the past. The narrative is that gay life has improved since 2007 when John Paul kissed Craig. That's a false narrative. The gay & lesbian community (LG) now includes straight people (BTQ+). So straights have taken over gay spaces & diluted their gayness. Gay bars have disappeared since European countries became Muslim. Gay life is more dangerous than ever. And straight people don't understand. They don't feel it. Also many political gays are blinded to the everyday reality of gay people. First kiss John Paul & Craig 2007.

PECKER (1998) introduced America to "tea-bagging". And Baltimore. All the gay strippers are straight. "No mom. I'm not gay. The gays blow me."

Interview with a Ukrainian "fixer" — a trip planner & escort for foreign journalists who visit. How has LGBT life changed since the war? Gays are more visible in the armed forces as they joined for (a) national defense, and (b) the Russian rhetoric is more anti-gay. Still your domestic partner has no hospital visitation rights.  The fixer tells the story of a gay prisoner-of-war captured in Russian-occupied territory. He was tortured & sexually assaulted, not to extract intelligence, but for the joy of making someone suffer. He was freed after two months when friendly forces liberated the prison. The geopolitics are changing rapidly. The USA President is the most gay-friendly ever. Of course Ukraine President Zelensky once played piano with his penis. Europe is turning against Ukraine by purchasing Russian gas. Europe is turning against the LGBT as Christian countries become Muslim.

Strange phenomenon. Digital creators, who appeal to gay customers, want everybody to know they're not gay. Okay. But they can't shut up about it. Problem is women don't pay for online thirst traps. I used to frequent a store where the cashier made fun of me for paying the high prices. I quit going to that store.

You (Aaron Eckhart) are in a rut. Your wife is cheating on you. You publicly assault her lover. You move out & in with your brother, a former celebrity high school football player who is married to a man. His husband helps you in "upgrading the package". You need a makeover. You start swimming laps again. You shave your body. Buy new clothes. Meanwhile you mentor a high school student. He & his friends help you get your wife back. You've only ever had sex with one person—your wife. Until you "smoke chronic" at a tent party in your brother's backyard. You get lucky with a co-ed. Eventually you get your beautiful wife back. But it's too late. You don't trust her anymore. Your body is no longer attracted to her. So you move on. "Meet Bill" on YouTube. Age-restricted for a few profanities, sexual situations & drug use.

Times change. Feelings engage  These are the good ole days I remember when I was lonely  At home alone Those days have come & gone Now my heart has company  When you're far away  Both our hearts are gay Somehow connected through space Times change. Feelings too Ever more in love with you  I remember how we met When could I ever forget  Alone but not lonely  When you're far from home Our two hearts are gay  Somehow connected through space  Times change. I'm still with you  THESE ... are the good ole days!

Dad: What gives you a boner? Son: I'm 17. Everything gives me a boner. Your mom means well. She thinks you're gay. You think so too. Until mom steals your identity & applies for an LGBT scholarship to pay for your college. Now the entire school thinks you're gay. And straight girls are suddenly super-attracted to you. So you start to doubt your gayness. You're a virgin. So you don't really know. Lucky for you, bi-questioning counts as gay. "Helicopter Mom" (2014) on Tubi & other platforms. TV-14.

Keven is a favorite of this blog. He found a quality hookup online—not DL but closeted to his family. Dating was hot & heavy for a while. Then things got quiet. Worry it might be over. Rough patch. They talked it out in a mature way. Hopefully this guy is the one. Take it slow 

They don't make 'em like this anymore. 🎶 I'm Getting My Back Door Smashed In What a mess you left........ 🎶

Cheap Whiskey  It's what I'm drinking  To numb the pain It ain't working  I keep on drinking  Since you left me Cheap cheap whiskey  It burns my tongue To say my heart is broken  Boy was I dumb The pain won't go numb I keep on drinking  Promising I can stop I won't break your heart....again Cheap Whiskey. It's what I'm drinking  Until that day you forgave me  I cut back drinking finally  When you came back to me  The cheap whiskey is history  Since you came back home No more Cheap Whiskey Only the good stuff!

How far would you go to protect your straight image? Would you remain silent while fraternity brothers make gay slurs against a former brother on TV? He's in a coma after being gay-bashed. You were the last person to see him. You two quarreled at the "Daily Grind" coffee shop. Why would you not tell the police? Is your secret more important than justice for your childhood friend turned lover? You were taught what happens to gays long before you realized you're gay. Everyone is disappointed in your deception. But you are forgiven when your boyfriend recovers & you solve the crime. The movie is called "Defying Gravity". There's a phenomenon where films are uploaded & re-uploaded under a different title & thumbnail. So throughout, I had the eerie feeling I had seen it. But maybe I saw clips in a gay music video.

Memories in the past Dreams of the future  It's what you have  When I'm not there  Enough to last Until I see you again  My heart is warm  In the brutal winter storm  In the blistering desert heat My bare feet are cool In my mind I hold your hand  Sunburn where the sun don't shine  Memories have come to pass Dreams do come true Cocky confidence apart We both have a warm heart Things in common attract Soon I will see you again.

Inappropriate gay joke embarrasses everyone. (12:15 into the show). Plays on the stereotype that gay men.... including married gays wearing a gay (black) wedding ring.... are promiscuous predators. It's not the first time Gutfeld has teased Guy for being gay. Won't be the last. See @guypbenson on X for clips. Surely this one will be added. GREG: Are you 16? CJ: 22. GREG: So he's legal, Guy. CJ: Just barely. Me & Guy play for different teams. It's okay. UPDATE. Fox News channel with permanent link to the segment.

Success has pitfalls. He dresses to accentuate his "physique". Some non-gendered person groped his junk. He performs for the wealth. Not to be a piece of meat. Waitresses deal with far more & are paid far less.

Is this the ultimate wish? Hot & heavy unexpectedly  Out of the blue. I love you  Until the next time  Another kiss. I will call you Is this the real reason? For my happiness unashamedly  On the long ride. Sore behind  Another miss. I sing the blues  Until 6 becomes 9 Is this the ultimate? I want you all the way through  Until eternity  When I'm feeling blue  I blow a kiss. I love you.

Gay is what you do. Not what you are.

I vote yes.
