Gay furor

Koch film’s ‘gay’ furor

The modern documentary about Ed Koch may have ruined his friendship with a prominent gay advocate, who suggests in the movie that the former mayor is gay.

Throughout his career, and to this day, Koch has fervently refused to discuss his sexuality.

The issue comes up again in the film “Koch,” when lobbyist and longtime gay activist Ethan Geto recalls the outbreak of the AIDS epidemic in the s.

“So many people, particularly in the gay group, thought Koch was gay and that because he was a closeted gay man he wouldn’t do anything on AIDS,” Geto says in the movie.

“It would have been so incredibly invaluable for a popular mayor of New York to declare he was gay.”

Koch told The Post he was taken aback by comments from someone he once considered a friend.

“I was shocked, frankly,” Koch told The Post. “Why would he do that?”

The year-old former mayor said he won’t speak his sexuality because that would “legitimize the question” and produce it harder for anyone thinking of running for public office.

Masculinity and the Principles of Porosity in 'Post-AIDS' Gay Porn

Abstract

This project theorises homosexual "pig" masculinities and their visual mediation, which emerged in the last two decades in tandem with the introduction of antiretroviral therapies for the leadership and prevention of HIV infection. It does so through a close critical engagement with representations of "pig" masculinities in contemporary male lover pornography.

"Pig" is a term used by some gay men to self-define themselves in terms of their own sexual practices, which they regard as transgressive, pushing the limits of the body and of its integrity through ceaseless condomless penetrations, stretching of the rectal sphincter, and exchanges of all kinds of bodily fluids (sperm, urine, saliva, etc). It is used in the names of fling websites directed at gay men into fetish or "extreme" sex (e.g. or ) and often included, as a pig head or snout emoji, on usernames or profile text on homosexual hookup apps prefer Grindr, Scruff or Recon. It is also a legal title that, alongside &qu

World Vision&#;s gay furor and A.D.

PAUL ASKS:

(Regarding the World Vision relief agency deciding U.S. employees can live in same-sex marriages): What does the Religion Guy think?

THE RELIGION GUY ANSWERS:

This question was prompted by that dramatic policy change by a prominent Christian organization, but a mere two days later Society Vision restored its limit of employees’ relationships to male-female marriage. A news reporter’s career isn’t to tell agencies what to do but to analyze what’s going on, and The Guy thinks these neck-snapping events say much about U.S. Protestantism during, oh, the next 50 years.

Why only Protestants? There’s little chance this sexual teaching will be open to reconsideration among the Catholic Church, Eastern Orthodoxy, independent churches in the developing earth, Mormonism, Orthodox Judaism, or Islam. With the Planet Vision furor the irresistible oblige of cultural evolution met the immoveable object of Bible traditionalism. “Parachurch” agencies love World Vision with backing from all sorts of churches are especially vulnerable.

Italian pasta maker Barilla is taking steps to limit damage to its brand, after its chairman's remarks in September triggered an international furor and boycott efforts by lgbtq+ rights organizations and supporters.

In a radio interview, year-old chairman Guido Barilla stated that the company would never make an ad spot featuring "a lesbian familyNot out of lack of respect, but because I do not observe it like they complete. [My idea of] family is a classic family, where the woman has a fundamental role."

According to Reuters, the executive has since held at least eight meetings with queer organizations and activists in Italy and the U.S., which is its second-largest pasta market.

Barilla also announced that it plans to create an advisory board that includes American homosexual activist David Mixner to improve "diversity and equality in the company's workforce and culture" and participate in the U.S.-based Human Rights Campaign's corporate equality index.

In addition, a Barilla spokesperson told Reuters that the company is already working o
