Subject: Sour note from "Queer As Folk"

Ben Boxer comments: The guy's got a right to his opinion, but he would probably stick his tongue up my ass if Showtime paid him enough money and gave him star billing. It reminds me of the Irish terrorist in "The Crying Game" who fell in love unawares with a transgender and threw up when he saw her dick. He felt "dirty" then after realizing he had buried his cock in a man's face instead of the woman's he thought it was. Go figure.

I had a hot roommate years ago in Africa who loved the head I gave him on numerous occasions, but who had to take a shower after every time. "I feel so dirty," he would say, and yet the girlfriend whose muff he used to dive on had B.O. plenty and never douched. "That's different," he told me. "She's a woman. You're a man." Go figure.

Headline: Sour note from "Queer As Folk"

(excerpted from an article in The Advocate, 11/21/00)

Text:
The deafening rollout of positive publicity the American Queer has enjoyed in the gay press, fed by a seemingly limitless Showtime marketing campaign, hit an unexpected pothole with Newsweek's publication yesterday of comments made by cast member Chris Potter.

Potter, who plays Dr. David, confessed to having a bit of trouble kissing other men. "What do you do?" he told the news magazine. "Soon as they say cut, you spit. You want to go to a strip bar or touch the makeup girls. You feel dirty. Its a tough job."

Scott Seomin of the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation told the DataLounge that GLAAD had already contacted Showtime and a meeting arranged with Potter. "These comments are clearly defamatory and insulting to the gay community and we will be speaking to Chris Potter about them," Seomin said.

Headline:
Virginia upholds sodomy law

(The Advocate, 11/22/00)

Text:
The Virginia court of appeals ruled Tuesday that the states sodomy law was not unconstitutionally applied in the case of 10 gay men arrested in 1998 for cruising in a Roanoke park, The Roanoke Times reports. The court upheld the conviction of the men, who had challenged the states sodomy law on the grounds that it is an unconstitutional invasion of privacy. The three-judge panel of the court ruled that the men had no legal standing to challenge the law on privacy grounds since they were seeking sex in public. The court did not address one of the arguments that Sam Garrison, the mens attorney, made against the law: that married couples can be charged with sodomy for engaging in sex in their own home. Virginias sodomy law makes oral or anal sex a sodomy, regardless of the sexual orientation of the individuals involved. Whatever may be the constitutional privacy rights of one who engages in sodomy in private, those rights do not attach to one who does the same thing in public, Judge Jere M.H. Willis wrote in the unanimous opinion.
