The Imitation Game

The Oscar award winning film "The Imitation Game" was based on the life of Alan Turing,  a British gay mathematician.  As a World War II code breaker he was able to create a machine that eventually lead to the development of computer science and artificial intelligence.  In short, he started the development of the computer.  Despite his great achievements he was persecuted for being gay.

Will Shepherd threatened for being a gaymer

YouTube personality and gaymer (gay gamer) Will Shepherd was threatened online for being gay.  For those of you who do not know Will Shepherd, he vlogs everyday in YouTube with his fiance.  I am one of his subscriber fan.

While live streaming on a gaming site, some gamers noticed that Will was wearing a rainbow headband.  What happened next was a hate crime.

Homophobic comments flooded online and eventually his internet connection was Ddos'd by homophobic hackers, forcing it to shut down.  The homophobes further threatened him that they would expose his personal information online.  Homophobia at its best.

After the incident the homophobes explained in a tweet that they were not trying to be "rude".   They took down Will's internet connection not because he was "gay" but because he "likes guys".

Can anyone explain to me what is the difference between a "gay" guy and a guy "who likes guys"?  This is the same reason being given by closeted gays who still thinks they are "straight" despite the fact that they "like guys" and suck dicks.

Will, you are not alone in this fight.  You go gurl!

Let Grace Be Total

The United Church of Christ in the Philippines (UCCP) approved “Let Grace Be Total,” a policy statement on lesbians, gays, bisexual, and transgender people in its 10th Quadrennial General Assembly and 66th Founding Anniversary. 

“This affirms that all of us regardless of any category are under the grace of God. The statement means that LGBTs should not be discriminated but should be unconditionally accepted in the fellowship and membership of the Church,” says Bishop Reuel Marigza, UCCP General Secretary.

Colin Farrel supports gay brother

Hollywood actor, Colin Farrell shows his support for marriage equality in behalf of his gay brother.  Colin wrote an open letter to an Irish national newspaper calling on marriage equality.

Having a brother like Colin is important.  I am also blessed that my brother supports me as well.  He knows I am gay and does not really mind at all.
