He had made new friends who share similar love stories with him. He has found a way to make himself comfortable...

Some things you just learn with age, and on a recent r/askgaybros Reddit thread, dudes revealed what dating advice they’d tell their younger selves. Their words of wisdom range the gamut from using Grindr to chasing straight guys to cultivating self-confidence and self-worth. Here’s an assortment of the comments posted on the thread so far, edited for readability. “Don’t stay up late on Grindr. It is never worth it.” “Don’t be shy. You can totally have him.” “Confidence! Cultivate...

The new issue of TIME Magazine features Democratic presidential contender Mayor Pete Buttigieg and his husband, Chasten, with the caption “First Family: The unlikely, untested and unprecedented campaign of Mayor Pete Buttigieg.” The Buttigieg’s are the first gay couple to pose for the cover of the magazine since a 2013 issue that focused on marriage equality. Although it’s early in the Democratic primary season – there hasn’t even been a debate yet – folks are finding themselves drawn to one candidate or...

Mariam Al-Sohel argued the anal worm makes gay men attracted to other men An academic in Kuwait has claimed she has a ‘cure’ for homosexuality saying gay men have an ‘anal worm’ that ‘feeds on semen’. Mariam Al-Sohel claimed on Scope TV that she believes there are four genders – male, female, feminine gay men and butch lesbians – and she explained how she has found a cure for being gay based on Islamic prophecy.

A recently published study of over 100 primates, including humans, found that those with “showy” facial hair often had smaller testicles. This doesn’t mean that beards equal smaller balls, but it does suggest that men use beards as a “sexual ornament” to help lure potential mates and make up for other shortcomings. (But we already knew that, right?) The study, published this month in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, compared the sexual traits of over...

Actor Robert Sheehan offered up some refreshing heterosexual energy in a recent interview, speaking candidly and shamelessly about past same-sex sexual experiences. The 31-year-old plays openly gay character Klaus Hargreeves on Netflix’s The Umbrella Academy and appears on the popular UK show Misfits as Nathan Young. Speaking to Hot Press, Sheehan, who identifies as straight, opened up about experimenting sexually with other guys when he was younger. “I think it would be irresponsible not to question my sexuality. “I had a couple of...

This is exactly what it's like to be LGBTI under ISIS Iraq’s second largest city, Mosul, fell to ISIS in June 2014. Everyone was affected, but so-called Islamic State targeted gay people in particular. It took nine months of intense military operations from Iraqi forces and their allies to recapture Mosul in July 2017. But for those three years, ISIS executed LGBTI people by blindfolding them and throwing them off rooftops, as well as stoning them. Daesh (ISIS) also enforced strict clothing limitations....

OPINION: Topher Gen says ageism is rife on the gay scene and not enough is done to tackle it Over the last two years, getting older has started to scare me. Maybe it’s because I still favor nights out over nights in. Maybe it’s because I have the constitution of a party girl on ‘My Super Sweet 16’ and the impulse control of a toddler. Or maybe it’s because I’ve always associated getting older with being written off; with being tossed...

9 UK men have been sentenced for attacking gay men. The Hackney Gazetter reports that a gang of men led by Huseyin Onel attacked three men on suspicion of the victims’ sexual orientations.

But there are no plans to build a memorial to LGBTI victims of Islamic State Iraq authorities are bulldozing a building that was home to hundreds of Islamic State (IS) homophobic crimes. Many men accused of being gay were thrown off the seven-storey building that was once home to the National Insurance Company in Mosul.
