I realize I'm diagnosing you from across the internet, but it sounds to me like you're dealing with well meaning people being taken in by an addict who doesn't know any boundaries. I have dealt with many, many addicts of all stripes over the years, and the main lesson I have learned after being repeatedly burned is

We laugh about the "no holding hands in front of my kids" thing, but that seriously one of the most forward aspect of homophobia I've experienced in my life time. Now, this guy is a lot more out front about it. Usually when I encounter its some mom in workout pants who thinks she gets bonus points because her bigotry

Chicken hawk makes more sense when you know that "chicken" means a very young gay guy. Usually around 18ish. It does not necessarily imply under age, although it potentially could.

Funny story. Once when I was around 26 I was wearing a shirt that said "Tastes Like Chicken." One of the local drag drag queens walked

Or some variation of the alternative version of this story: 17 year old hustler parties, does free drugs with famous director, sues when money runs out and he no longer has the face or body to go on being a rentboy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is Jezebel and every rape accusation is 100% God's honest truth and every

Problem with a sticker is, almost everything you see in a catalog is digitally altered. For example, any time you see a photo of a person with no background at all, it means the background has been removed somehow. In the old days, they used to literally print the image, cut it with scissors., and slather it onto a

Are you still seriously trying to run that photo from the Target catalog like its an example of someone's image being changed when it has been explained multiple times by people who know something (really, anything) about photo editing that that is almost certainly a clipping error that resulted from an misaligned

I think its too late for that. What we're seeing in this video is a serious addict with probably some underlying mental illness as well. If forced to live a "normal" life, she would be missing work and turn up homeless. I've seen this behavior from soooo many addicts over the years, just usually not ones with as much

I never got the hate for Comic Sans. Sure, people use it poorly. It's not a body type. Its spacing is also sort of awkward. Long sentences look kind of amateurish. But the font itself is fine used in moderation, as a heading or kicker font. I mean, Copperplate Gothic Bold and Trajan both look ridiculous as body fonts

As a gay man rapidly approaching 40, I thank God for the proliferation of this haircut, because it contributes significantly to my efforts to avoid spending money on 20 year old strippers and afterhours club trade.

Basically this. It has actually been pointed out by various statistics researchers that teen suicide is, statistically, a "good" thing to be among the "leading" causes of death when viewed in context. Not because teens are dying, obviously. But because in this century the majority of teenager and child deaths are from

There are a few of these in New Orleans. There is actually one that is a dive bar + laundromat + kitchen bar + live stage venue. Also, they keep toilet paper on a pad lock.

Having seen John Cameron Mitchell in person a few times, I'd say their body types are actually very similar. NPH could easily play JCM in a movie.

You might want to gather a little more info about the situation before you write someone off based on a three year old link to a gossip site with no sources. No wonder gossip mags sell so well.

The technical term is "photo illustration."

YOLO is a thing. Case closed.

And... no.

Looking through these comments I have to wonder. Maybe its because I spend so much time in the company of drag queens, genderqueers, performance artists and others who radically alter their appearances for shock value, but I don't get the horrified fascination with these sorts of characters. There seems to be a tacit

Sorry, by "warring parties" what I really meant was Molloy and the "I F&%$ing hate RuPaul" tweet. I'll try not to make assumptions about the volume of your argument in the future. One thing I don't doubt is that you're making your case with good intentions. Thanks for taking the time to chat, you've given me some

RuPaul's personna is female, and it is acceptable to refer to her as a her.

I don't think of it just in terms of terms being directed at drag queens. I am thinking in terms of how they think of themselves. It seems clear to me that RuPaul assumed the terminology encompassed her and the majority of her contestants. That really puts spectators in a position of having to choose between warring
