Care of The Sword's tireless editors, we bring you this roundup (by no means complete, or even-handed) of stuff going on for those of the homo persuasion this weekend in the two meccas we currently have bandwidth to cover, San Francisco and New York.  Check back soon to see...read more

Because we love to amuse you, especially on summery holiday weekends when you're going to be lost without any new stories to read until Monday, we threw together this little selection of upbeat, danceable and gay-ass tunes for you to swill cocktails by and wish America a happy bloody birthday,...read more

Our favorite erotic Narnian, Jason Curious, seems to have bitten off more foreskin than he can chew: in a ten-minute long YouTube video asks why his porn star talk show can only sustain one show a week, despite being booked for four. The former host of Cocktails With the Stars...read more

They always say porn and alcohol are recession-proof industries... and Valleywag is reporting today that an independent market-research firm went to work surveying new customers of a straight porn site (LSGModels.com -- Warning! Tits! Also, NSFW!) this past month, and 32% of these customers said they purchased memberships in part...read more

In honor of this very American weekend, we offer up some guy candy from our very own ersatz Royal family, the Kennedys.  In particular, we pay tribute to that hottie to end all hotties, JFK Jr., who tragically died along with wife Caroline in a prop-plane crash on the way...read more

Historically, the 4th of July has meant drunk rednecks, Ford trucks and Chinese firecrackers. For us, however, the 4th has been all about hiding in the bushes masturbating while the older kids skinny dipped and, more recently, passing out after an afternoon of high-fructose pasta salad, imported beer and hash...read more

This is it folks. We're wrapping up this series on all the famous pre-Pride fags who passed as 'perpetual bachelors' back in the days before AIDS and parades. There are of course a few historical homos we skipped over—like Sir John Gielgud (a classically trained British theatre actor who Mom...read more

San Francisco's underground drag phenomenon, filmmaker and cult leader Peaches Christ is back again this summer with a new season of Midnight Mass, and the film series premieres this 4th of July weekend with the "most American movie ever screened," Paul Verhoeven's 1995 masterwork, Showgirls. Some call it a camp...read more

For those of you who have the means and the time, the gay world is your oyster this summer (we prefer oysters to clams, anyway).  From a (winter) leather party in Melbourne, to the sugar daddy of all circuit parties on Fire Island, to a beer bust for BUTT Magazine...read more

In a twist worthy of some fucked up bisexual midget version of Gossip Girl, MySpace tramp Tila Tequila was [Spoiler alert!... whatever, do you actually look forward to this show?] TURNED DOWN by tall drinka lez Kristy, who she chose for her second completely fictional "shot at love" in last...read more

In a scene worthy of a B-side Dolly Parton song, a 21-year-old gay man who had admitted to previously sleeping with a woman woke to a "searing pain and disturbing wetness," then watched as his male lover flushed his severed penis down the toilet. The offending organ has not been...read more

We kind of care about fashion, but not enough to run through all the highlights of the Spring '09 menswear shows in Paris last week. You've got Men.Style.com for that. From us, you'll only get the mostly swimsuit, mostly naked shots from the John Galliano and Kris Van Assche shows....read more

Porn star agency Fabscout Entertainment has agreed to purchase Forest Men "talent management" business from David Forest, taking over his model roster, client list and the "David Forest" brand name. Forest will be retiring to pursue other interests for a few years, though possibly less with good behavior. The details...read more

Oh, the perils of chasing the gay dollar. While it's hard to deny that homosexuals have limited interest for things don't come in a vial, or with a remix, or with a fat burner, we like to at least PRETEND to think we're more than one-dimensional.  Sure, no one's gonna...read more

We're sorry we missed this in all the pre-Pride madness last week, and we're willing to give old Al the benefit of the doubt, but it seems Al Sharpton, appearing on Anderson Cooper 360 last week, made a statement about his own liberal religious beliefs that could be interpreted as...read more

We know. You're tired. Your head hurts and you have some existential malaise to beat the band.  Half the people we know in SF make it an annual tradition to schedule the Monday after Pride as a vacation day from work, but here in the sweet sweet flesh and culture...read more

Can we all agree that Daniel Craig is the hottest James Bond ever? (No? You like 'em hairier/older? Please, regale us in the comments about how you'll never stop loving Pierce Brosnan or Sean Connery or those others.) Anyway, the trailer for the new Bond film, Quantum of Solace, is...read more

You can't slap a ball sack in the gay porn world without hitting Sister Roma—the host of NakedSword's porn-centered Tim and Roma Show—who's well known as a notorious and lovable cock-slut who's blown more porn stars than Dawson. But when not sampling the merchandise, Roma's making porn look pretty for...read more

We've had our fill of swell and swilling Pride, but for some global gays it's still about fighting for, like, civil rights! This weekend not only marked the anniversary of Stonewall in the U.S., it marked Queer Pride in India, with a parade in Calcutta and the first celebrations of...read more

They're hot and they're buff but they'll never have sex with you because they're too busy rubbing their monogamy in your face. The Jarics, gay porn's most maddening couple (or "Gay Porn's First Exclusive Couple" as Falcon prefers them to be called) have started posting the details of their blissfully...read more
