So another bar closing its doors. Manacle is closing Oxford Street is losing a turf war, the gay areas are retreating, and it is in decline. If Oxford Street is dying - where to from here?

Apparently 600 years ago there was a term called "affrèrement" which roughly translates to brotherment. In the contract, the "brothers" pledged to live together sharing "un pain, un vin, et une bourse," (that's French for one bread, one wine and one purse). The "one purse" referred to the idea that all of the couple's goods became joint property. Like marriage contracts, the "brotherments" had to be sworn before a notary and witnesses. What to you recon - brotherment or affrèrement, sounds kinda sexy . . http://news.yahoo.com/s/livescience/20070827/sc_livescience/gayunionssanctionedinmedievaleurope;_ylt=AtamWqpGqTzKdAuvLo.OgZWs0NUE

Is being gay a private thing? Can you be "out" and still have a private life? I wrote an open letter to a gay CEO, suggesting that he should come out, but do it properly. How much you reveal, how you do it, who you tell and what you tell can allow you to have your cake and eat it to. You can be out and still maintain a private life. I have experienced being a closeted gay men for most of my life. I know that being so deeply ashamed of a part of yourself that's so fundamental, and that you can do nothing to change, is close to unbearable; and the knowledge that coming clean involves not only admitting that you're gay, but also that you have not been honest with yourself or to people you care about, makes it that much worse.

Imagine your a gay CEO of one of our most prominate and successful companies - should you come out? Looking at the experience of Lord Browne at BP would make you worried. This was the question at dinner this week, and it was discussed at length. From my perspective, it is important to have an openly gay CEO of a major corporation in Australia. Is there a single openly gay person running an ASX company? If you are, and your thinking about coming out I have some advice. You should come out. You owe it to yourself and your company to bring every part of yourself to the table. Being in the closet means hiding part of yourself and not being totally honest. If someone who was reporting to you asked you about your thoughts about them coming out publically would you support them? Hire a good PR company - how people find out matters. The worse way is for it to be a scandle or shock. It needs to be done right.

Should we stop using the term "gay marriage". Is the term itself, counterproductive to the cause of marriage equality? When we say "gay marriage" it suggests that it is something other than REAL marriage. It is set apart. It sounds like gay people are asking for "special rights". Nup - we're not asking for "gay" marriage; we're wanting marriage EQUALITY for same-sex couples. We're not wanting a new institution, all our own; we're wanting to simply be fully included in an EXISTING institution.

So the BF and I want to go to a resaurant.....but they say that booked solid until mid Nov. Is this crazy? Should we wait? The place is called Oscillate Wildly and it is suposed to be really good. But ..... mid Nov? I mean really? By mid November we will have a new Australian Idol, the APEC summit will have been and gone and I will be another year older. In the gay world relationships come and go - some may not make it to the reservation date. Am I being impatient? How long a wait is reasonable?

Do we make our own fortunes, and just call it fate? Have you had a friend see tarro readers, then describing how certain events or relationships must be..... fate. Is this stuff real? Perhaps ..... thinking about things..... can influence your fate? It got me thinking about this quote . . Watch your thoughts, for they become words. Watch your words, for they become actions. Watch your actions, for they become habits. Watch your habits, for they become character. Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny

Someone at work was looking a bit stylish today - a bit of product and a pink shirt. However, rather than say "that's so gay" they were discribed as going a bit "metrosexual". However, it got me thinking, if the gay community holds the gold medal in the world of fashion, then looking "so gay" has to be the equivalent of saying, "Your so hot right now" So, what do you recon, is it a compliment to look "so gay"? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWpcfA8vY-c&mode=related&search=

I don't like country music, and I don't mean to denigrate those who do. For the people who like country music, denigrate means 'put down'. How much of an issue is a difference in musical tastes in a relationship?

The other day I found myself saying "Do you think anybody would CHOOSE to be gay?" However, to justify a behavior by saying "I can't help it" is to imply that if you could help it, you would. I have been thinking about this, and about how this is a defensive position, one that implicitly accepts that there is something wrong with being gay, that it some sort of ""abnormality" which demands to be explained. It suggests that if we did have a choice in the matter, we would choose to be heterosexual. In fact, the question about what causes people to be gay is not very useful. The problem is that we have been holding our biology responsible for our behavior, and this is dangerous. It is dangerous because it encourages us to forget that what is most human is our ability to choose what we do with our bodies, sexually or otherwise. Since homosexual desire is perfectly normal, there is no need to account for it, and there is no reason to repress it. Who cares what causes it? Just say yes.
