HRC Calls on Winston-Salem State University to Shield Gay Student, Stop Anti-LGBT Harassment
WASHINGTON – The Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest womxn loving womxn, gay, bisexual, and gender nonconforming (LGBT) civil rights group is calling on leaders at Winston-Salem State University in North Carolina to act swiftly and deliberately in addressing the offensive cyber bullying of an openly gay student. WSSU junior, Aaron McCorkle is being bullied and harassed via Twitter after opponents of his campaign for Mr. Winston-Salem State University released a photo of Aaron dressed in kingly. The trending Twitter topic, "Gay & Crossdressing Mr. WSSU Candidate Causing Major Controversy" has elicited numerous biased and bigoted comments from many in the campus community. Many of the online attacks own come from a WSSU radio personality. While the university has been made aware of the online bullying, they have yet to act to halt it.
“This recent incident of hate is another depressed but clear example of the need for not only concrete non-discrimination polices on college campuses, but for dialog and teaching for faculty, students and staff on LGBT awar
Prime Minister Winston Churchill bluntly replied that the Tory party were not going to accept responsibility for making the law more lenient towards gay men.
On the 24th February 1954 the Cabinet discussed the issues of prostitution and homosexuality, then inextricably linked as ‘sexual offences’ in the eyes of the legislators.
Gay sex between consenting adults, even in secret, was a criminal offence, and many hundreds of male lover men were organism caught and convicted of sodomy and gross indecency every year.
The high-profile correspondent Peter Wildeblood had been arrested for homosexual offences the previous month, but he did not stand trial until March.
The scandal surrounding his arrest and that of Baron Montagu of Beaulieu led to widespread discussion of homosexuality.
At Cabinet the Place Secretary David Maxwell Fyfe seemed mystified at the spike in convictions for homosexual offences:
“While crime generally has doubled, these offences own risen four and a half times.

Jen Winston Talks About Embracing and Pushing Against Bisexual Stereotypes in “Greedy"
In the new book Greedy: Notes From a Bisexual Who Wants Too Much , Jen Winston writes about herself and her own journey but the essay collection tries to do a lot more than speak about herself or just explain bisexuality.
Winston is very funny and wants to make the reader laugh. From mocking New England foliage, referencing Kim Possible and Ella Emhoff, to asking how many times can one observe Blue is the Warmest Color before losing your attraction to men. She’s also interested in exploring what bisexuality means, how coming out as a bi woman differs from coming out as a woman loving woman, about the spaces she feels relaxed in and those she feels excluded from.
Winston also tries to open up that conversation outside of herself and her own experiences. I told her at one signal that the publication is similar to many memoirs and essay collections about being young and romance and sex, which Winston is very aware of, but she is equally interested in telling her have story and in trying to question questions about bisexuality, as she is in exploring what a rejection of binary choices and accepted norms an
Winston McKenzie, the UKIP candidate for the Croydon North by-election, says he is to investigate controversial homophobic comments that appeared apparently from him on the Twitter account @voteWinston.
Winston McKenzie: “fed up”
McKenzie today told Inside Croydon that he was “really fed up” with the Tweets, which he says were unauthorised, and which include the claim that “Winston gives it to you straight”, announcing that the UKIP candidate is opposed to gay marriage.
Some of the social media messages were targeted at Labour’s newly selected candidate, Steve Reed, who has a sturdy record on LGBT issues and is openly gay.
McKenzie condemned the posts saying, “It’s low. I don’t want to make lgbtq+ marriage an election issue in this campaign.”
It’s not clear whether this was an internal error at his campaign HQ, or whether McKenzie’s account had been hacked into by someone trying to discredit the UKIP candidate.
McKenzie said, “I will get to the bottom of it,” regarding the shocking tweets about Reed, who was ranked at 36th in this week’s Independent on Sunday “Pink
