Views expressed in The Advocate’s opinion articles are those of the writers and do not necessarily represent the views of The Advocate or our parent company, Pride Media.In May, I prophesized about the upcoming threat this year to the LGBTQ+ community, with the anticipated overturning of Roe v. Wade meaning gay marriage is next, and about the rush by state legislatures to pass anti-LGBTQ+ laws particularly related to transgender youth.In April, I wrote about the attitude of Republican voters toward candidates who were homophobic in a poll conducted by Politico and Morning Consult that showed a small minority of Republicans, only 25 percent, said it was a major problem if a candidate makes homophobic statements.And later that month, I wrote about the diabolical duo of Florida Gov.

the news broke that Lady Gaga was in early negotiations to join Joaquin Phoenix in director Todd Phillips’ sequel to his Oscar-winning supervillain origin story, Joker, and it’s got the internet in a tizzy.Does this have “disaster” written all over it? Could it be a future camp classic? Fans of both Ms. Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta and the iconic Batman nemesis seem divided, though if there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that Gaga’s press tour for this would be wild. Considering what she gave us while promoting House Of Gucci—stories about feeling drunk from prop wine, swarms of flies sent from Patrizia Reggiani herself—just think what will come if she plays a murderous Clown Princess Of Crime.But rumors have been floating for a while now that Gaga might play The Joker’s psychiatrist-turned-love interest-and-sidekick Harley Quinn (also currently being played by Margot Robbie).

Detroit Free Press reports.Leader Shirkey is facing a lot more problems than Senator Moss. Last week two nonprofits tied to Shirkey were accused “of improperly raising millions of dollars for Unlock Michigan,” MLive reported, “to limit the executive branch’s powers during health emergencies.”But in the LGBTQ Pride Month resolution, Shirkey wanted “language saying not all Michiganders support the LGBTQ ‘lifestyle’ but that all people are ‘created in God’s image,'” despite it being the exact same one that was approved last year.“I thought we were over this,” Moss said on the Senate floor Tuesday (video below). “But this month, the Senate majority has sent the LGBTQ Pride Month resolution to committee just so that they can not adopt it.”“It is a nonbinding resolution,” Moss says in his speech.

And most parents are aware of this when they choose the bring their children.Nor does he seem to have a clear understanding of the LGBTQ rights movement, how it started, or how it has evolved over the last half century.In Walker’s defense, he’s not gay.

transgender Jeopardy! champion Amy Schneider throwing out the ceremonial first pitch at the San Francisco Giants’ Pride Day game Saturday, substituting two-day-old footage of a NASCAR driver instead.The sports channel is a sister company to the conservative Fox News Channel, leading some to wonder if there was transphobia involved, although Fox officials are saying the network simply doesn’t usually air the ceremonial pitches.The Giants were playing the Los Angeles Dodgers in the game, which Fox was broadcasting regionally. The Giants and Dodgers both wore caps with their logos in rainbow colors for LGBTQ+ Pride (the umpires sported a Pride insignia as well), and patrons who bought a special ticket package got rainbow socks.Schneider, who went farther on Jeopardy! than any woman or trans contestant in the show’s history, winning 40 consecutive games, threw out the first pitch while sporting a Giants jersey and a colorful, flouncy skirt.

Lukas Gage has a message for people making assumptions about his sexuality: Stop.Gage, 27, has risen to prestige television prominence in shows like HBO’s Euphoria and The White Lotus, as well as Hulu’s Love, Victor and Peacock’s Queer as Folk.If you’re noticing a queer theme running through those titles, you’re not alone. Several characters Gage has played aren’t straight, and with so much recent attention given to the idea that only openly queer people should play queer roles, he’s facing some criticism.There’s no denying that more opportunities should be given to LGBTQ actors, but requiring performers to disclose their sexuality before taking a job gets into sticky territory.Last week, someone took to Twitter to write: “If Hollywood can stop hiring non LGBTQIA+ actors like @lukasgage to play LGBTQIA+ characters, that would be great.

We take a look at some fake news in France and elsewhere concerning Pride Month.

Fox News for promoting LGBTQ Pride month.The network, which has built a reputation for its conservative perspective, launched a Pride month promotional video earlier in June inviting viewers to "celebrate Pride month with Fox News," "meet important voices of the LGBTQ+ community" and "go inside their incredible contributions."They also aired a Pride month special segment featuring a transgender teenager named Ryland whose parents allowed him to transition when he was 5 years old. In the special, his mother, Hillary Whittington, said she allowed her son to transition because she would "rather have a living son than a dead daughter."The pro-Pride content, however, has left the network at odds with some of its conservative allies.

In the United States, 16 states and three territories offer no protections to LGBTQ workers meaning, in other words, one can be fired simply because one identifies under one of the letters of the acronym, according to the Movement Advancement Project. On the other hand, 33 states, two territories, and the District of Columbia do offer such protections, sometimes explicitly, as is here in California, or through a broader interpretation of anti-discrimination laws based on sex.

So when it happened to Rebel Wilson last week, I felt all of her pain. Except hers happened on a global scale. When Rebel announced recently that she had her very own ‘Disney Princess’ via the most adorable social media post, it seemed nothing other than wholesome on the surface. However, it soon transpired that Australian newspaper the Sydney Morning Herald (SMH) had been planning to publish details of her new romance, so it appears they forced her hand in coming out.  Not only that, but the language this publication used when discussing Rebel’s history of dating men was vile.
