Spoiler alert – dating is difficult no matter what. It’s funny, but once you embrace your queerness, it seems to be everywhereĮven better, you’ll find more examples of people just living out loud. Sometimes all it takes is that One Special Human to turn everything around for you. Once you come out and live authentically the weirdest thing happens …. An outspoken actor and activist, he is often spotted at Pride Parades and otherwise campaigning for equality. Sir Ian Murray McKellen is one of the treasures of the LGBT world. Though, to be fair, I wouldn’t turn down the gold ? Virginia.įorget pots of gold, LOVE is the real treasure. The battle for people of different races to marry legally wasn’t settled until the Supreme Court 1967 decision of Loving v. Interracial couples were quick to step in and remind us all that their marriages were illegal not so long ago. As the campaign amped up, allies stepped up. The fight for LGBT Marriage Equality has been, at times, quite isolating. Usually that’s disappointing but then there are times like this. Sometimes things don’t play out the way you think they will. ‘Cause it’s always the super judgy types that should definitely NOT be judging others. That makes this widely shared meme from 2017 all the sweeter. It’s a thoughtless comment and one that seeks to undermine a person’s emotions. (Just me?) Jokes aside, sure we all go through phases but when someone tells you that when it comes to your sexuality, it can be brutal.
#Bo your gay meme tv#
To be fair, sometimes it IS just a phase: an emo phase, club scene phase, watching the TV with the sound off but a radio turned up phase. I think everyone has heard ‘It’s just a phase’ at one point or another.
What better way to celebrate than with 25 of the most heart warming Love Wins memes you’ll ever see. Summer is just starting which means it’s Gay Pride season! Of course, summer is also wedding season. More and more gay, lesbian, trans, queer and non-binary people are coming out, standing up and being counted. Members of the LGBT community, allies and basically anyone who supports love and equality. Perhaps it’s a call Chapek should’ve made sooner.Our years after the Supreme Court’s landmark decision, the concept of Love Wins has become a powerful rallying call. A DeSantis spokesperson told The New York Times that while the call did take place, no meeting had been set up, and the governor’s position hadn’t changed.
On Wednesday, Chapek said he called DeSantis to “express our disappointment and concern” over the effects the bill could have, and he claimed the governor agreed to meet with LGTBQ+ members of Disney leadership to discuss it. The legislation is on Governor Ron DeSantis’ desk, and he’s expected to sign it. It seems this will soon come to pass, though. The HRC’s interim president, Joni Madison, declined the offer, saying the organization wouldn’t accept money from Disney “until we see them build on their public commitment and work with LGBTQ+ advocates” to make sure measures like the one in Florida don’t become law. He also claimed Disney would be assessing its political donations in Florida, and pledged to donate $5 million to LGBTQ organizations like the Human Rights Campaign. The company had always been opposed to the bill, he claimed, but “we chose not to take a public position because we felt we could be more effective working behind the scenes directly with lawmakers on both sides of the aisle.” “I know that many are upset that we did not speak out against the bill,” he said during Wednesday's shareholder meeting. But as this week rolled on, Chapek clearly realized his statements weren’t going to fly. The outcry continued until Wednesday, when Chapek did an about-face during the company’s shareholder meeting, saying, “Our original approach, no matter how well intended, didn’t quite get the job done.” Disney was now opposed to the “Don’t Say Gay” bill. Then, on Tuesday, the Florida legislature passed the measure, which restricts discussions of gender and sexuality in grade schools. Many who work for Disney, as well as Walt Disney’s own grandniece, weren’t pleased. He started it by sending a memo to his staff on Monday stating that, while he and the leadership team stood in support of LGTBQ+ employees and communities, the company wouldn’t be making a public statement condemning the so-called “ Don’t Say Gay” bill in Florida, where it is a major employer. The Monitor is a weekly column devoted to everything happening in the WIRED world of culture, from movies to memes, TV to Twitter.īob Chapek, The New York Times wrote this week, needed to emerge from “ a crisis of his own making.” It’s been a long week for the Disney CEO.
