Marvel Comics makes history with a gay X-Men marriage.

Marvel Comics’ Astonishing X-Men is set to experience a new sound effect on top of its booms, whams, and sknits: the bong of wedding bells. Specifically, it’s the wedding bells of Marvel’s first gay marriage between longtime X-Man Northstar and his civilian boyfriend, Kyle. After pairing up the couple in 2009, Marvel is officially tying their knot in June’s Astonishing X-Men #51.

North Carolina: Then and Now

no.

these aren’t the same

and people still die because of the top one

i’m done with this “gay is the new black” shit.

I’m done with this “blacks had it worse, so the gays can just shut the fuck up and suck it up” shit. What you don’t seem to be getting is that last night, North Carolina amended its state constitution to ban gay marriage and the last time North Carolina amended its state constitution was to ban interracial marriage. The comparisons here are valid. The whole “gay is not the new black” is right. No one can legitimately compare the black struggle to the gay struggle, but that is not the point. The point here is that the people who opposed racial equality then are the same people opposing gay equality now.

“and people still die because of the top one…” Are you implying that people don’t die because of the gay struggle? Are you not aware of the dozens of CHILDREN committing suicide because they’re being bullied for being gay? What about Matthew Shepard, do you know who he is? Like, really?

How about instead of being a homophobic asshat, you understand that, as minorities, we should support one another, not get upset because of stupid sayings that do nothing but pull us further apart.

okay, first off. i’m gay. and a person of color. so you can shut the fuck up with your “homophobic” crying and check your privilege. second, you’re a racist ignorant sack of shit who clearly can’t read.

nobody here even MADE this about who “has it worse.” YOU DID. which says a LOT about the ‘point’ you’re trying to prove here.

gay black people exist. gay black people suffer from BOTH homophobia AND racism. when you say that being gay and being black are equivalent, you are erasing the existence of gay black people and their struggles. i know that kind of logic must be very, very difficult for you to comprehend since you didn’t get it the first time.

people are STILL OPPOSING RACIAL EQUALITY. TODAY. RIGHT NOW. HAVE YOU HEARD OF TRAYVON MARTIN? CECE MCDONALD? i’m sure you haven’t. RACISM IS NOT OVER. WE ARE NOT IN A POST RACIAL SOCIETY. and no, the people opposing racial equality are not the ‘same’ people opposing gay rights. you are a perfect example of that, since you seem to be all about gay rights but have no problem shitting on people of color. thanks for that, by the way.

these issues need to BOTH be addressed but they are NOT the same thing. what you are trying to do is ERASE PEOPLE’S EXISTENCE AND EXPERIENCES.

i know who matthew shepard is. in fact, i MET HIS FUCKING MOTHER AND SHOOK HER DAMN HAND. you want to know something about matthew shepard’s mother?

the night i saw her speak, you know what she opened with? BEFORE she even spoke about her son and the plight of gay youth in america? she spoke about james byrd. i’m sure you have NO idea who he is, clearly. james byrd was a young black man who was LYNCHED the SAME year matthew was murdered. he was tied to the back of a car and dragged along a highway until there was nothing left of him.

the MOTHER of the young man you are trying to use as an excuse for your racism knew the difference between gay rights and civil rights. and you DO NOT.

so i think you should sit your ass down. right fucking now. you racist piece of shit.

in which trubr0wn drops a bit of knowledge on a random asshat

This is why I fucking love trubr0wn

Birth Control 101 by *TomPreston

It sickens me when political pundits ignore medial complexities and progress by turning everything into a black and white “moral” issue. I had the option of using Rush Limaugh (who made the “slut” remark), Foster Friess (who suggested women put aspirin between their legs as a contraceptive), or Rick Santorum (who believes birth control is sinful) as the “heavy” in this comic. Then I remembered Santorum is currently in a position to potentially run my country, and the decision was a no brainer.
