supports HTML5 videoMadonna sure knows how to cause a stir among her fans and has done exactly that in her latest TikTok video about her sexuality. The Like A Virgin singer was in a playful mood over the weekend and took part in a popular trend on the social media app, which sees her attempting to throw a pair of knickers into a bin.If she misses, it apparently means she is gay and, well, Madonna didn’t exactly practice her aim before shooting the video. In the clip, the pop icon is seen standing in the middle of her very luxurious bathroom and throwing a pair of hot pink knickers – to match her hot pink hair, of course – into a nearby bin. However, she doesn’t make the shot and throws her hands up in the air feigning despair. ‘If I miss, I’m gay,’ Madonna captioned the video. Of course, the singer could have just been keeping up with TikTok trends and having fun with the video, but many fans have naturally questioned whether it was a reveal about her sexuality. ‘Did I just witness Madonna coming out, good for her,’ one fan questioned. ‘Did Madonna just come out? And I’m witnessing it in real time??’ another wondered.One fan said: ‘Why am i witnessing madonna’s coming out in real time.’ Another cheered: ‘I’m so glad I’m witnessing this.’ Madonna, 64, has always presented a sex-positive message in her artistry and was once asked about the idea that ‘everyone is born bisexual’ in a 1995 interview with MTV.She responded: ‘I don’t have an answer for that. I think whatever it is we should embrace it and never make ourselves or other people feel ashamed for whatever it is.’ In a recent interview, the singer joked that her favourite snack was: ‘I can’t remember his name.

JK Rowling has made a bold statement slamming First Minister Nicola Sturgeon after a gender recognition legislation was passed by the Scottish Government. The Harry Potter author, who has been outspoken about the trans community in recent years, reacted to the news that the majority of MSPs on the Equalities, Human Rights and Civil Justice Committee recommended the general principles of the Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill should be approved. The legislation has proved to be controversial as it allows an easier process for transgender people to be legally recognised as their preferred gender. On Thursday, Rowling shared a photo of herself wearing a black T-shirt with the words ‘Nicola Sturgeon destroyer of women’s rights’ on the front. In the Twitter caption, the writer said: ‘I stand in solidarity with @forwomenscot and all women protesting and speaking outside the Scottish Parliament. #NoToSelfID.’ Journalists are said to have approached a Scottish Government spokesperson for comment about the T-shirt, but they said they hadn’t seen it. Rowling, 57, has been at the centre of controversies recently after angering many people in the LGBTQ+ community specifically.In 2020, the author was accused of being ‘anti-trans’ when she tweeted: ‘“People who menstruate”.

In a 2020 essay for The Tulane Hullabaloo, Shahamat Uddin observed that college is “the beaming light at the end of the tunnel” for many closeted high-schoolers:Confined to small suburban hometowns and stifled by the ignorance of our young peers, we knew that there was a version of ourselves just waiting for a moment to be on its own. We could finally flourish and thrive in the fruitful and all-encompassing gay life pop culture promised us.(That one song-and-dance scene from Love, Simon—mentioned in one of the tweets below—comes to mind.)For some queer young adults, college does indeed offer that freedom to flourish and thrive.

living for it.The queer actor has long been the beating heart (literally) of FX’s hit vampire comedy, What We Do In The Shadows. His character, Guillermo, is the human “familiar” to a group of blood-suckers—but he not-so-secretly wants to be a vampire himself.And while that dream has yet to come true, Guillermo did take one major step toward living the life of his dreams in the show’s most recent season: He came out as gay! It was a surprising and welcome development for the series that Guillén has called both “therapeutic and nostalgic.”But it’s not just What We Do In The Shadows that we love Guillén in—this guy books! In this year alone, he’s shown up on Amazon’s Reacher, and done voice work for Human Resources, Puss In Boots: The Last Wish, and on Harley Quinn as the hero Nightwing (which he jokes he was type-cast in because of his bubble butt).Related: Gay Christmas is coming: All the spooky queer entertainment to look forward to this Halloween seasonAnd, as of this weekend, he can be seen in Comedy Central’s hilarious new horror movie Cursed Friends, opposite Nicole Byer and other gay icons like Kathy Griffin and Nicole Richie.

Anyone can be a top and anyone can be a bottom—or vers or even a side, for that matter—but we all know the stereotypes about tops and bottoms. Such stereotypes would have you believe that tops are tall, domineering, and masculine, while bottoms are short, submissive, and feminine.And in a Reddit’s r/askgaybros forum, one 6-foot-2 Reddit user said he’s been made to feel “kinda undesirable by some tops, especially the dominating ones.”“Have any of you bottoms got rejected for your tallness?” the user added.Related: WATCH: The struggle is real for the 6’4” bottomUnfortunately, that tall bottom is on the receiving end—pun very much intended—of a scientifically verified bias.In a study published in PLOS One in 2014, researchers studied the height preferences among non-heterosexual men and found that “men that preferred a more dominant and more ‘active’ sexual role preferred shorter partners, whereas those that preferred a more submissive and more ‘passive’ sexual role preferred taller partners.”In other words, “men who preferred to be ‘top’ in the dyad preferred shorter partners, whereas men who preferred to be ‘bottom’ preferred taller partners,” as the researchers wrote.  A post shared by Schadey Lane (@schadeylane)Back in the Reddit thread, some commenters commiserated with the 6-foot-2 bottom’s plight.

Hi Jake,I’m kind of freaking out, and don’t know what to do. I was chatting on an app with a guy who didn’t have a face pic, which I almost never do, but he had the most beautiful torso pics, and I figured, “why not?” I asked if he could send me some more pics, and we started sharing what our sexual fantasies are. The conversation became really hot, and we exchanged some more body pics. After a couple days of dirty talk, I finally said I needed to see a face pic. I wasn’t about to waste any more time. He told me that he’s an “A-List celebrity”, and he’s scared, because he’s closeted. He promised me that he wasn’t lying, and even showed me an image of his SAG card with this name blurred out, so I knew he was an actor. Anyway, we’ve continued to chat for a couple weeks, and he’s bared his soul about the struggles he experiences as a closeted actor in Hollywood. Finally, two days ago he said he would email me his identity from a private server, and he sent a copy of his ID. Um… I’m still in shock about who it is. And not only that, I’m actually developing feelings for him. I’m now stumped about what to do. I want to respect his privacy, but I also kind of want to date him and be his first boyfriend. How do I navigate this?A Star GazerDear A Star Gazer,The first thing I would do in your position is make sure you’re not being catfished.

And inspiring me to believe that we can all do that for each other.
