Ahh Fox News and their polls. Let’s use our POWER OF THE INTERNET to really make our voices heard. Go here and vote “yes” (or really vote however you’d like, but I’m assuming you’ll pick ‘yes’?) Here’s the poll: Did Judge Make Right Call In Gay Marriage Case? Yes — Prop. 8 violates the Constitution. […]
Judge Walker’s ruling on the constitutionality of California’s anti-gay Proposition 8 was handed down today: we give you the rundown, and ask for your thoughts. HOLY FUCKING SHIT, DID WE ACTUALLY JUST WIN?
Judge Walker will announce his decision this afternoon, so check back with us! Also, Prop 8 supporters are already trying to prevent even the chance of gays getting married, should Vaughn overrule Prop 8.
New analysis of the Proposition 8 vote from 2008 shows that the ridiculous Yes On 8 TV ads had more of an effect than anyone first thought. And the results weren’t as close as it appeared, either. We’ve got a lot more work to do.

In France, the 16-to-18 year-old children have gone completely mad! They’re having crazy “Skins” themed parties with sex, drugs, security guards, admission fees, and costumes! It’s basically like the 70’s up in there!
Awkward Stock Photography Tumblr inspires us to dig through our favorite lesbian stock photography tropes AND BOY IS IT HILARIOUS YOU GUYS. Also, this is not a Lindsay Lohan post, but it may or may not feature a song her father apparently wrote and performed to assure her that his love “will never die.” Laugh or cry as you see fit. Also, Kristen Stewart talks about gendered double standards in Hollywood, a new movie starring guerilla gun girls, and drag queens singing about oil. I know, what more could you ask for?
This weekend, a district judge in Arizona reversed a ruling that would have denied domestic partner benefits to the gays and lesbians of the entire state. In honor of his decision, we investigate what exactly an activist judge is, and why they make us feel so warm and fuzzy.

Panorama Magazine has footage of three Catholic priests having sex with men. Cardinal Agostino Vallini says it’s time for gay priests to just come out and leave the church. Being gay and being raised Conservative Catholic, I think this reflects a new attitude that I actually really like, and here’s why.
