What did Shakespeare think of Marriage Equality? Happy Birthday, Bard.

Masters and Johnson made up their evidence in the iconic study about gay conversion success, Scientific American now reports. More on them here. Somebody tell these closeted gay republicans!

NEW JERSEY voters are ready for FULL Marriage Equality! Public Opinion polls released on four states that have upcoming Marriage Equality bills, votes or judgments. NEW YORK polls even HIGHER! I already posted this video by NEW YORK group Empire State Pride Agenda about Massachusetts and religious freedom. Watch it if you didn't get the chance before. IOWA's Clerks now have gender neutral Marriage Licenses, and the Attorney General is going to make sure no bigot tries any funny business on Monday.

I didn't realize that the new Stonewall Library is actually a CIRCULATING Library! How cool! Don't forget this year makes FORTY!!!

See what Miss Cali-phobia's fellow Miss U.S.A. contestants think of her answer. Miss Cali-phobe debated by Martin and Signorile on AC360 last night! Roland Martin is a moron. Signorile also popped up on TruTV this morning to discuss the Angie Zapata trial verdict in depth. And along those lines, WHY Perez should watch his mouth.

HBO led the cable networks with shows like gay-created True Blood , No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency , and Big Love ; with over 42% of programming being LGBT inclusive. We're not surprised that there were so many cable networks that ranked high on the index; #2 Showtime's programming consisted of 24% LGBT-inclusive programming, #3 TNT dedicated 19% of its hours to LGBT-inclusive content, #4 MTV 17% (really, only 17?), and #5 Lifetime—the in-denial fourth gay network—had 14%.
