What's black and white and red all over? Why, the Sisters of
Perpetual Indulgence, of course, with their white "ear brassieres,"
black nuns' habits and colorful veils (which only fully professed
Sisters are allowed to wear). These in-your-face individuals in flowing
black robes (or dresses or leather chaps or maybe just a thong),
sparkles and whiteface are fierce, fabulous, funny, enormously
creative, sometimes a little bit scary and impossible to miss as they
carry out their mission of raising money for good causes and ridding
the LGBT community of guilt. ("No more guilt!")
For the first time, leading medical groups are advising millions of healthy men who are regularly screened for prostate cancer to consider taking a drug to prevent the disease.

Technology keeps changing the way gay men connect -- whether it's to hook up,
find love, make new friends, or some combination of those things. And it's all
happening so fast! Just eleven years ago, I was commissioned by a national gay
magazine to write about the "strange new world" of online dating

cell phones with them when they went out to the clubs -- a time when no one I

"I've been with my boyfriend for 8 months. We're in love and have a great time. And the sex...AWESOME!! But recently, my boyfriend has started having sex dreams about me... except they're about me having sex with somebody else! I've had more sexual experiences than him. Up until a couple of months before meeting me, he was 'straight'. He says he doesn't know what's causing the dreams, but he's upset and losing sleep. He knows I’ve had threesomes before, and gets off on the idea that I want them now. I don’t. I want an exclusive relationship. This is creating tension between us."
The AIDS virus is spreading rapidly among gay and bisexual men in
