Cheerleaders Having Lesbian Sex? Now Thats News!

Close up lovely happy lesbian couple

There are several important issues at stake for gays and lesbians in America this week, as churches continue to defrock or penalize gay and lesbian clergy, the Supreme Court rules on whether transgender employees can make discrimination claims, and voters in several states decide whether to grant or deny gays and lesbians basic civil rights. But who cares about all that boring stuff, when there's real news happening? I'm referring, of course, to the news the mainstream media can't seem to get enough of: the NFL cheerleaders busted this weekend for having lesbian sex. Technically, the two Carolina Panther cheerleaders--Renee Thomas, 20, of Pittsboro, N.C., and Angela Keathley, 26, of Belmont, N.C.--were arrested last weekend not for allegedly having sex with each other, but for doing it in a bathroom stall at a bar, then punching one of several complaining patrons waiting to use the restroom, and resisting arrest for disorderly conduct and assault. All while very, very drunk.

Are Gay Men Afraid of Love?

At times, the gay dating scene can seem like a maelstrom of noncommittal men all waiting for the next date. The number of eligible men online, at the beach, the club or the grocery store is overwhelming. Some are only looking for sex, but many are looking for love. Finding gay love is only a step away... if you're willing to see it! Imagine being granted exclusive access to Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. You're there with thousands of other lucky winners, but the focus is on just you. There is plenty for all. As you enter the sweet smelling factory, you're taken aback by the delightful treats all around you. Overstimulation seems like an understatement. You revert back to your childhood days, eager to sprint through the many aisles of endless sweet treats. Just as you are about to empty your pockets in preparation for your candy stash, the staff abruptly halts your progress to go over the ground rules: You have free access to every corner of the factory. You can tour as long as you like- hours, weeks, years, a lifetime. You can sample every candy imaginable- thousands upon thousands of hard, soft, chewy, big and small delicacies. But you can only leave home with a bag full of one candy- yes, only one!
