Every time we think we’ve seen all the ways people can be terrible to other people online, the Internet laughs and serves up a new offender.This time, it’s a troll who called Reddit user u/sh0rtass “gross” for being 4’10.”We only see a snippet of their conversation in the screenshot that u/sh0rtass uploaded earlier this month, but it seems like the other guy did something else that warranted an apology, even before the “gross” comment.“I’ll leave you be,” he wrote. “Sorry again.”But did he leave u/sh0rtass be? No, he certainly did not. Instead, he upchucked this bile: “But honestly, you are short as hell.

Should these parts go to actors who are gay, and face the criticism and professional discrimination of coming out publicly?Social repression of sexual orientation and gender identity aside, there are many movies starring straight actors that have been beautifully made, and presented wonderful portrayals of queer characters.

Perhaps it makes sense that women — those supposedly compliant and agreeable, self-sacrificing and everything-nice creatures — were the ones to finally bring our polarized country together. Because the far right and the far left have found the one thing they can agree on: Women don’t count. The right’s position here is the better known, the movement having aggressively dedicated itself to stripping women of fundamental rights for decades.

SAN FRANCISCO — Cleve Jones has lived in the Castro neighborhood for nearly 50 years, almost from the day he graduated from high school in Phoenix and hitchhiked to California.

akt, a charity dedicated to supporting young homeless LGBTQ+ people.You can donate here People will rightly ask me why I wanted to put myself out there this way. Frankly, it’s because it’s time to do something different.Although I have been in love twice (and one or two occasions when I thought I was), nothing has ever quite ‘stuck.’ I have tried every dating app under the sun – almost to the point of repetitive strain injury – and realised that for me, it just may never work.There have been so many times when I’ve thought I might just be getting somewhere when chatting with a guy, but then things have just stopped for no reason at all.Perhaps that’s because, for some, ‘swiping’ has become the goal in itself and when they realise that the person they’re messaging wants to meet, they don’t actually feel they want any more (or we’ve got to the point of making plans to meet, he gets cold feet because he realises that I actually exist) and that’s that.I’ve deleted so many apps so many times that all the memories seem to roll into one, but an exchange of ‘it’s been lovely talking to you, looking forward to meeting you,’ and then absolutely nothing when I follow up on the day of meeting, pretty much sums up my online dating experiences.  The worst was when I did meet up with someone.
