He loves a man–and women


By

I am a 24-year-old guy, and have been single for a while. I liked a few girls before but never really pushed through with any of them. Recently, I met a guy and we became friends. Before I knew it, I was in love with him. I can say for certain he’s 100-percent straight, but as for me, I’m confused. I’ve already confirmed that I have no problem being gay, but I also have that same urge with women! Maybe I’m bisexual?

The understanding wife


By

My husband is gay, and we’ve been married 25 years. It took a lot of pain and adjustment to be where we are now. His family knew this open secret—everyone except me, initially. I just knew I fell in love with this handsome, soft-spoken, well-dressed, rich single guy, and I thought I died and went to heaven. I was a probinsiyana with a very ambitious mother, and my parents-in-law couldn’t have found a better match for their son than me.

Some courts are ruling ‘gay’ is not slanderous

By
In this Friday, April 20, 2012 photo, Jennifer Cockerham, a nurse from Walkertown, N.C., holds her hand over her heart for the Pledge of Allegiance during a rally supporting a state constitutional ban on gay marriage in Raleigh, N.C. Voters decided May 8, 2012 to adopt the amendment. When President Barack Obama announced his support for gay marriage, supporters and pundits declared it symbolic of a historic shift in American attitudes. But as the attention fades, the fact remains that voters in 31 states have rejected gay marriage and more are lining up to do so. (AP Photo/Allen Breed)

One by one, courts around America are deciding it’s no longer slander to falsely call someone gay — a measure of how attitudes are changing in the era of same-sex marriage and gays in uniform.
