German soccer boss says: “There’s no place in football for gays”

A former soccer boss today sparked fury by declaring: ‘There is no place in football for gays.’

Rudi Assauer, who formerly headed up Schalke 04 in Germany’s Bundesliga, went on to say: ‘Perhaps they are OK in other sports but not in football.’

‘If a player came to me and said he was gay I would say to him: “You have shown courage.” But then I would tell him to find something else to do.’

His outburst is set to enrage world footballing authorities who are making concerted efforts to rid the game of homophobia.

Figure skater Johnny Weir ‘not family friendly enough for Stars on Ice’

The American figure skating champion Johnny Weir has reportedly been rejected from the Stars on Ice Tour because he is not deemed “family friendly”.

Weir, who represented the US at the 2010 Winter Olympics and is a three-time national champion, was rejected from the show by its sponsors, the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) claims.

The organization said: “To say that Weir is ‘not family friendly’ would be a clear jab at his perceived sexual orientation … Weir is extremely involved with his family. He is putting his younger brother through college, and supports the family financially because his father’s disability prohibits him from working.”

Hey, wait!

Who’s that featured in Tumblr’s LGBT directory!? ;)

I love Tumblr’s featured directory listing option. I just paid for Equalitopia’s feature in the gay and lesbian directory, and it’s a really well done live-updating self-service submission process. I love it!

It’s probably one of the best experiences I’ve had paying for a product. Credit card payment is in this tiny little pop-up widget. You barely even see the “transaction,” so you don’t really even remember paying. The price is clear, but only shows up in a cute little grocery store sticker. The whole process is done on a single page.

User experience well done! Nice job, Tumblr!

School Cancels Prom Over Lesbian Couple, Lawsuit Filed Against School

18-year-old Constance McMillen is filing a lawsuit against her Mississippi high school, after the school’s prom was cancelled when she asked to attend with her girlfriend and wear a tuxedo.

ABC News reports that according to the lawsuit, the couple must arrive seperately, and “if any of the other students complained about their presence there together,” they could be thrown out. According to the lawsuit, the school says that boys are supposed to attend in tuxedos and girls in dresses.

McMillen has been facing issues in school since the incident, people were being hostile towards her for the cancellation. A student told her “thanks for ruining my senior year,” according to the Associated Press.

The media has been all over this story, with people posting the story throughout social networking sites, and creating Facebook Fan Pages for her. On her Facebook profile, people have been showing their support, and one even went so far as to inviting her to be flown out to an LGBT-friendly prom.

Equalitopia has requested an interview with Constance, but has not yet received a reply.

Did your high school allow same-sex couples to proms? Reblog with your reply.

TV shows with gay characters could lose Florida tax credits

A new bill being considered for Florida could mean that television shows or films with gay characters within them that are shot in the state could miss out on vital tax credits because they are not deemed “family friendly”.

Current state law grants tax credits on productions considered “family friendly” - with no smoking, sex, nudity or profane language.

The proposal by Republican Rep. Stephen Precourt of Orlando would expand the field of disqualified productions as those that include any “exhibit or implied act” of nontraditional family values and gratuitous violence.

Stephen Precourt told the Palm Beach Post that shows with gay characters were not “the kind of thing I’d say that we want to invest public dollars in”.

Taylor Swift’s ’You Belong With Me’ (The Gay Version)

A group of students from the University of Rochester (New York) made a gay version of Taylor Swift’s music video You Belong With Me. The video is starring Matt Francis (the jock) and Michael Pittman.

You might want to watch the original video first, if you haven’t seen it.

Wouldn’t it be great if there were move same-sex couples in in mainstream media?

This is so awesome. University of Rochester is 5 minutes down the street from me! :)

That’s so weird. I love this video and the U of R is like fifteen minutes down 490 for me. Is danlev someone that I know?

Ummm weird! I go to RIT! Interesting. (And this is weird to try to have a conversation like this… lol)

This is awesome. Also awesome: when I see two friends from completely different social circles reblogging each other. How the hell do you two know each other, or is it just hyper gaydar?

Interesting! I’d like to know too! Jordan—how do we know each other!? LOL.
