admin, , , ,

Ryan Phillippe has reflected on his groundbreaking gay role in the American daytime soap opera One Life to Live. In 1992, the handsome talent got his big break when he portrayed Billy Douglas in the long-running TV series.

admin, , , ,

Twenty countries in the European Union have called on Hungary to repeal its archaic ban on Pride and other LGBTQIA+ events. Earlier this year, Hungarian lawmakers passed two pieces of legislation that further restricted the rights of the country’s LGBTQIA+ residents. In March, the ruling Fidesz party submitted a bill that would make it illegal to organise or attend events that violate Hungary’s “child protection“ laws, which prohibit the “depiction or promotion“ of homosexuality to those under 18.⁠ The legislation also allows police to use facial recognition cameras to identify…

Mermaids, the leading trans charity in the UK, and LGBTQIA+ activist Joseph Harwood have opened up to GAY TIMES about their powerful fashion-forward collaboration. WORDS BY JORDAN ROBLEDO Over the last few years, politicians and conservative figures have consistently attacked the trans and non-binary community by spewing hateful rhetoric and introducing legislation targeting their rights or access to healthcare. From the 47th president of the United States issuing anti-trans executive orders to the UK Supreme Court’s ruling excluding trans women from the legal definition of womanhood, the conservative agenda has stopped at nothing…

Imelda Staunton stars in West End revival of Mrs Warren’s Profession – review

admin, , , ,

There once was a time when George Bernard Shaw’s play Mrs Warren’s Profession was banned from being performed, and honestly we can see why. We doubt that Victorian England was ready for a play on the theme of sex work – the profession to which the title alludes is that Mrs Warren owns and runs a successful chain of brothels – and we also doubt that many at the time would have approved of a show so critical of capitalism or society’s conventions. In the lead role of Mrs Warren…
