This is more so just a venting thread because I woke up to something really disgusting today. So, I get up and hear my stepfather, stepsister and little brother chattering in the room next to mine. I guess my little brother did something that made my stepfather say what he said. Not exactly sure what my brother did, but I'm assuming he reenacted one of the dumb cartoons that he watches, which is something he does all the time. This is what my stepfather said: "Stop, this is where those ****ots come from. My boy is not going to be like that." Just when you think you're becoming more comfortable with the idea of coming out, **** like this happens. The questionable part is that my sister once asked him a hypothetical question, "Are you gonna kick me out of the house if I bring home a girl," and he said that he wouldn't. Go figure... Definitely ruined my day, but I'll get over it because I recognize that it's him that has problems, not me. I mean, I won't hold a grudge, but since I don't know if he'll ever come around, he doesn't deserve my time of day for now. I refuse to go through the insane amount of fear, risk, anxiety and stress that accompanies coming out for some like him. Plus, this isn't the first time. Update: I asked my sister, and it turns out that all my brother did was put on a pink shirt from my sister's closet.

I mean when someone asks me what kind of guy I like (talking about the looks), I cannot answer it. Cuz I do not have one. I can like white, black, latin, asian guys. I can like a fit body with 6 pacs or a dad bod. I can like guys with beard and hairy body or like a guy like tom holland. Sometimes i find tall guys hot sometimes short guys. Sometimes I find guy at my age hot, sometimes i find mature guys hotter. Why is that? Does it mean im too ***** and like every guy i see or is it normal not to have a specific type?

There's this huge debate on what is it like to look queer and a metal fan who happens to be gay. Said it best. This is what happened when we allowed our community to be defined by identity politics and stereotypes to say what is queer and what is not. For lesbians you have to look butch, not feminine cos that's the stereotype lesbian. For gay men you have to look and dress and act feminine and superficial to be believable as gay and that means rocking out to Madonna, who once again due to a VMA Appearance the gay media slapped her as the biggest icon to our community and that's another stereotype, Madonna defines us as a gay community and the ultimate ally. This is something that I think @lustwecantcontrolwould agree with.. The community got defined by identity politics and stereotypes. Even Brandon starka an openly gay Republican said the gay community biggest downfall will be identity politics. N And it's actually revealing ot already is happening.

Yes, I did it! I finally had a smexual entanglement with a man. I know it’s not your business, but after almost two year lockdown I finally said ‘fùck it, I will let the nerdy break me’! I won’t give you details (or pics), but he didn’t let me catch a breath. Anyway, stream La Tortura for smexy entanglements! I’m curious about yo ho’ life, so don’t forget to leave a comment, a subscribe and a share to your poor friends!

Hi exhalers / papis, I usually don't make topics, but this one deserved to be posted. Trisha Paytas released a Spanish version of her single "Freaky" and it's terribly iconic, but not in the ways you'd think. In case you don't know Trisha, she's a famous youtuber who's been memed so many times, including getting her own emojis on Exhale. The music video is an amazing replica of Lindsay Lohan's iconic "Rumors", starting from the looks to the killer choreography. The thing about the song is... the lyrics are way too funny and dirty. She's trying to break into the Latin community market, but her Latin friends must really dislike her 'cause no one warned her about the hate she's getting online. No shade to Selena Gomez 'cause I love her, but this is exactly how she sounds like when she sings in Spanish. MÉTELO TODO! (put it all inside!) DÁMELO DURO! (give it to me hard!) PAPI, MÉTELO ASÍ! (papi, stick it like that!)

Hahaha listen... I'm a gay guy and sometimes I really get tired of seeing straight couples everywhere - TV shows, outside my home, commercials etc. I don't really see good representation of queer people in media, sorry. No shade but when a guy is gay in a TV show most of the time the whole show is all about his ***uality instead of it being just like a side thing like it's normal with straight couples in TV shows. Or he's just a gay bottom friend of a main character It's not like I expect straight people to disappear hahaha no, I know this world is dominated by them but sometimes it gets boring. What do you think?

Serbia is a country in South-Eastern Europe, and although we have an openly lesbian Prime Minister, we still didn't legalize same *** partnerships. Well, this is about to change in 3 months as Serbia has declared it wil llegalize the unions this summer. This law won't have a referendum because according to Serbian constitution, the rights of minorities cannot be decided by a majority (which makes referendum in this case illegal). Let's all join hands and congratulate Serbia for taking a huge step ahead, especially in times when countries such as Hungary and Poland are looking to revert their gay laws Many countries in Europe still don't offer protection to their gay citizens and a civil union is still just a dream, hopefully, super conservative countries surrounding Serbia will now be inclined to do the same. In this part of Europe, only Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia and Montenegro have recognized civil union or gay marriage. Many countries still refuse doing it. Additionally, Serbia is already drafting a low to allow adoption for gay couples which should be legalized in two years max A part of Serbian population is naturally very pissed off because they are homophobic swines, but our Minister of Human and Minorities Rights sent them a wonderful message: "To all those who oppose the law, I can only say -- if you don't like same-*** partnerships, don't live in one," Minister of Human and Minority Rights Gordana Comic, who has championed the law, told AFP.

DC Comics has officially revealed that current Robin, Tim Drake, is Bi. I know this is typically a music forum, but most of us are LGBTQIA+ and superheroes/ comics are definitely a part of pop culture. This news is particularly exciting for me as Robin has always been one of my favorite DC superheroes (But D.ick Grayson is definitely my favorite). I can’t even begin to tell you how many times I daydreamed of Robin coming to save my from my bleak existence as an adolescent 😂 I think this is really great representation, especially for the younger generation that could use a superhero role model to look up to and find themselves in. I can’t stress enough though- if *only* it was Grayson. Le Sigh. 😓

First Dababy, now Academy award winner Matt Damon, is getting cancelled.. During promotion of his latest film "Stillwater", which itself is causing controversy as Amanda Knox has called the film a little too similar of what she went throug. He admitted it was just 6 months ago he stopped using the Anti gay slur, after his daughter told him to stop, well that's not good enough, he's being cancelled after his lame statement saying back in my day and the 19th century it meant something completely different, that didn't help, it made it worse, and this is an actor who has played Gay men in several of his films and of course the first primetime show to have openly gay characters as the main character throughout the series Will & Grace, so knowing he was using that word while doing these roles and an important show that helped up get into mainstream acceptance has been used against him in the cancel process. Nice knowing ya, Matt, you should have kept your mouth shut, cos it's all about the years you've used that word is the problem..not that you stopped using that word..

Ok he has apologized (by a pr most likely), but it's being doubted. #1 he literally lost alot of festival appearances since the rolling loud festivals and sponsorships, so they feel as an attempt to save face and his bag is being stopped, people realize this has to be his publicist trying, to save him from anymore damage. #2 Everybody said if this is Dababy, where are his F Bombs and N words, so the authenticity is being seen as Damage control, given his video to his latest single, also touches down on the rolling loud controversy. Bottom line, nobody is buying this! It's too little, too late!! @Jordan Miller @Slayer @I Always Sing Live

https://www.facebook.com/122805687735321/posts/4824310480918128/ Despite the obvious click bait, of the title using homophobic rant, despite being bad, bullying is protected under the first amendment as it's freedom of speech, so he can't be arrested for a rant.. He was arrested for actually threatening violence, and using ****** as the threatening tone on a neighbor who happens to be gay, but edge media is gay media, so the click bait on using being arrested for homophobic rant, was the only way to get the neccessary clicks for traffic.

Hey y'all! I recently just logged back into Exhale. Apparently I haven't been on here since 2017. Wow! I'm mainly on ATRL these days but wanted to say hi to everyone. Who else here is an OG member? I joined in 2007 and came on here a lot. I also used pop-overdose if anyone remembers that forum. And then Ubritney.com even earlier - back in 2004 I believe. I remember going to the public library in my town and the Mona Lisa demo/radio appearance being put online. I'm so glad Britney is finally about to be freed and given her life back after 13 years. It's surreal yet vindicating all at once. I couldn't be happier. In a way, as her fan, it's like a piece of us is restored. Since she was so instrumental in our childhoods, growing up with her music and visuals, and honestly having her as an escape from our lives. I know for me, growing up gay was not easy and she provided me with a rush of this amazing, fierce, confident pop world. I can still remember my dad surprising me with In The Zone when it came out in November 2003 and leaving the unopened CD on the kitchen counter. I wasted no time putting it in my CD player and getting lost in that album. It honestly might be my favorite Britney album just for how it affected me at the time as an 11 year old kid. Britney's confidence was palpable, the ***ual nature of the songs interested me (lol) cuz I remember all the news programs making all this hype about it. The blur (reference) of that release week/month with In The Zone Out All Night, the TRL outside performance, All Eyes on Britney, etc. Nothing quite compares now to those days where we didn't have social media and we relied solely on TV and music stores. No streaming haha. Anyway, that's just a little blast from the past and I'm glad to be back on here. Let me know if you share a similar experience! Or if you're younger, maybe Blackout or Circus was a big album for you. xx

Congrats and welcome to the fam

Halsey is outraged at Allure for failing to use the singer's correct pronouns. This could be because Allure didn't alternate between "they" and "she." Thoughts, Exhale? I- Related:

The category is “making history”. Mj Rodriguez has become the first transgender performer to earn a Primetime Emmy nomination for a major acting category. Woop woop! Rodriguez is nominated for Outstanding Lead Actress in a drama series for her portrayal as Bianca in Pose, FX’s brilliant ballroom culture “period drama” of sorts. The nomination is significant step for LGBTQ+ representation; specifically transgender representation at the Emmys. She has some stiff competition in the form of Oscar winner and likely favourite Olivia Coleman (The Crown), Golden Globe and Emmy winner Elizabeth Moss (The Handmaid’s Tale), Emmy winner Uzo Aduba (In Treatment), newcomer Emma Corin (The Crown) and critic’s darling Jurnee smollett (Lovecraft Countet). Billie Porter, last years Emmy winner for Outstanding Lead actor in a drama series (Pose), has been nominated for a second time (in the same category). As so many of us have fallen in love with Bianca, Mj’s angelic character on Pose, It just feels right that in its final season the television academy has chosen to recognise Mj (and Billie Porter again). They both deserve every bit of adulation for their portrayals of HIV positive LGBT members in 80’s/90’s New York at the height of the AIDS epidemic and during the deeply homophobic and repressive Regan/Bush years. See Mj’s reaction below upon learning about her groundbreaking nomination.

Well that's not really a secret, ir something to study to confirm.. It's the only way a relationship can work regardless of your orientation, marrying your best friend.. I mean we hear it all the time. "I married my best friend, and I cant imagine life without this person at all". All of my friends tell me, the best relationships can't be forced, don't go looking for it, let it find you.. You can be 60 when your true love comes into your life, you have to be patient it's not something that instantly happens.. Sometimes leaving your home or going to another country or state can.also help.you. One gay guy said you don't fit in Arizona or the US, you love and respect British and European culture to the point it can turn US gays off, cos it's like we're not.good enough.. But the British friend that met you fell hard, saying he understands my people more than you.

Frankie was about to be eliminated from Big Brother, but he pulled his biggest stunt, and it backfired and that's when the whole tv audience was pissed off. The day Frankie revealed his sister was Ariana grande, I swear the backlash against him went on her as well. I thought Frankie, you might have done more damage than you think. Many people hated both of then at this time, obviously he went back to the D List after his few years of fame waned off, and his sister of course survived this backlash which was probably unintentional on his behalf. But, still it was classic tv, when he revealed he had Hollywood and broadway connections and a star in the making sister, she wasn't the mega star she is now, when this aired in 2014.

Tatiana, a Mexican singer and actress who since the 90's decided to leave her pop career behind and become "La Reina de los Niños" singing children's songs, has made a collaboration with Miss Velvetine to release a medley of covers titled Be Proud. It includes the songs Strong Enough, Babylon and Vogue. This is kind of a big deal because typically in Mexico we haven't seen this kind of openness until very recently, and especially not from artists that are dedicated to the children. In fact, she got a lot of hate comments from her followers, "concerned parents" and religion fanatics that were upset about her "succumbing to the entertainment industry" and betraying her essence. She exposed some of these comments in a following post, and didn't hesitate to remind people why there's still need to raise awareness and keep educating the new generations. Besides dedicating most of her career to the kids, she's also been an advocate against the violence against women, since she herself experience the abuse in the hands of her ex-husband, who had her captive in her own house until she literally escaped by jumping the wall. When she first revealed her story, people didn't believe her and mocked her, and it wasn't until years later that her remarks started to be taken seriously. She's considered the pioneer in Mexico in the genre dedicated to children's songs that are produced with the same quality of pop artists. With her multiple tv shows and albums she released through the years, she became the staple of every kid's party or kindergarten recitals.

Tomorrow (June 23th) the national German football team (Die Mannshaft) will be up against the national Hungarian team in the 2021 European Championship. The game takes place in Germany, Munich at the Allianz Arena. Initial reports said the Allianz Arena was to be lit up in pride colours to out their displeasure with Hungary approving a discriminating law against LGBTQ+ people. They did the same thing with the Arena in the past to show support to the community during pride. However, UEFA, the Union of European Football Associations, has REFUSED the arena to be lit up in these colours. They claim this is a politcal matter and that football should be free of politics. Which is a bit ironic since players have been kneeling on one knee to support the Black Lives Matter movement which UEFA thinks is fine. So what's the difference between discriminating against black people or against LGTBQ+ people? UEFA finds itself in hot water as a lot of people are left outraged. Manuel Neuer, the goalkeeper of the German national football team wore pride-colours before to out support in the team's name. Many are wondering if he will wear it again at the game tomorrow. It's also 'funny' to mention UEFA has tweeted in the past about being inclusive: Messy? Hypocrite? You call it. * to be clear, I'm fine with people supporting BLM but I don't get why supporting LGBTQ+ would be any different!

Raiders player Carl Nassib has come out. As you may know, the Raiders recently moved to Las Vegas. Where I live and am from Hi Carl In all seriousness, This is HUGE. Looking forward to the day this isn't news, but for now 👏

https://www.pinknews.co.uk/2021/03/03/chris-moore-gut-feelings-gay-s**-top-bottom-versatile-familial-adenomatous-polyposis/ In an interview an openly gay man who identifies as verse, basically explains due to having warts inside his colon, he had to have surgery as teen to remove them, by 17 he had further surgery which removed half his colon, and it's stapled to his rectum cos it's really short, but he came out to his mum, and the nurse told him if was to put anything in there.. He could bleed out to the point he could die. He feels this is a burden to him as he's missing out fully exploring his full likes and interests, despite all that he totally understands and won't even risk it.

Mark Wahlberg stars in a new film titled 'Joe Bell.' The film is based on the true story of Joe Bell, who walked across the US in honor of his son who committed suicide due to bullying for being gay. In this preview, they sing a bit of Lady Gaga's "Born This Way." Super touching.
