Post gay
&#;Post gay&#; is an plan that seems to construct folks really mad.
Neal Boulton, the incoming editor of Genre magazine has been making waves announcing a new era of publish gay ness.
&#;There is nothing inherently gay any more about our interests, and I submit to you that we are people, not gay people — who are proud to be gay,&#; he boldly proclaimed in this first editorial.
Many irate readers and bloggers have denounced him, insisting that the nature we live in still plenty gay. Typically, they point to the continuing absence of gay rights.
And of course, it&#;s difficult to argue with those who point out that the fight for male lover rights is far from over, particularly in the US.

Post-Gay FAQs
I&#;ve had SO many conversations over the past few days (can&#;t dream why) about &#;post-gay&#; that I&#;ve decided to carry out a FAQ. Here are some questions with answers. If you can reflect of other sensible questions, please add them in the comments below.
What is Post-Gay?
Post-gay is a perspective whereby someone with gay attraction decides not to form their sexual individuality around their sexual orientation. This means that whilst accepting that they contain same-sex attraction, they act not define themselves in any way by that and refuse to receive the idea that their same-sex attraction validates homosexual behaviour.
You can read a longer explanation here (from when I first coined the phrase).
Watch my appearance.
Is Post-Gay just another word for Ex-Gay?
No. Someone who is post-gay might still be exclusively homosexual in their attractions, they simply reject the idea that their sexual identity or behaviour should be defined by or dictated by their sexual attractions. In most cases it is inappropriate to use the terms ex-gay and post-gay together since
Post-Gay Period ?
Post same-sex attracted is an ideology that sees each sexual orientation &#; homosexual,bisexual, heterosexual and asexual &#; as being equally valid forms of human expression. (queerty)
Although some believe that we are in the post same-sex attracted era, i conflict with this claim. There are still so many people in Europe and North America, who are afraid of accepting their sexuality as a gay person, more so to tell the whole world that they are male lover for so many reasons.
One of reasons is what they think of themselves. In small ( conservative ) towns, children and people are taught that homosexuality is a sin. There is ideology that people who engage in this sexual behave are immoral should not allowed to be a part of the society is widespread and held on to.
If one is taught something from a young age, you internalize it. If you include been called obese your whole being, you (most likely) see yourself as se, if you are constantly told you are gorgeous, you see yourself as beautiful. Monitoring this logic then, one of the biggest obstacles people face in admitting to themselves that
Are you post-gay yet?
My father was a bus driver for thirty years and one of my favourite childhood “treats” was to be taken into the bus depot to perch in one of the buses when it went through the huge automatic washer. (It was the s and there were no Playstations). So buses were a source of fun to me, and an occasional annoyance when they turned up after time. But who knew that buses were one day going to become great big political tools in culture wars over religion and sexuality? In , atheists paid for London buses to be branded with the slogan “There’s probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.” This prompted a counter-campaign a few months later by the Christian Party who plastered “There definitely is a God; so join the Christian Party and enjoy your life.” Who’d be a bus driver these days? Not only do you have to put up with drunks who won’t pay and teenagers playing their iPods out loud but now you’re part of a propaganda machine, possibly driving round messages that you deeply disagree with.
And now we’ve had Round 2 of the Bus Wars. First, Stonewall p
