Kimolisa Was Here

I saw this on a news feed on FaceBook, posted by an old pen pal, Sarah and I had to post it.


I am a supporter of Gay Marriage because in some cases those unions are truly built on love and to deny someone the right to basic things that a straight couple has the right to is so sad. I mean to know that your husband is in the Intensive Care Unit hanging on for dear life and you can't even be there to hold his hand. Okay, if you see a gay couple you automatically think of the sexual aspect, but really do we think of straight people the same way? Do we look at a random man and woman and imagine them having sex?

Anyway, I'm coming off of my soap box.

I was checking out some of the other bloggers on 20something bloggers and I came across boxofjack and saw this video. I though it was touching because if gives you an understanding of what it is to be gay and not out. I'm not gay but I knew a couple gay people and I am very supportive of gays. At the end of the day everyone is looking for love.

The amount of gay movies I've seen in my lifetimes asks the question if I'm gay. Answer: no, but I like a good romantic movie. Here's one I'm going to add to my eventual large dvd collection, I Can't Think Straight.

It is about two women, a Jordanian woman who has just been engaged for the fourth time, Tala, and an Indian woman who lives in England, Leyla. They met through Leyla's boyfriend at the time and soon became friends. Then their friendship became more, but Tala is engaged and she "can't" go against her society and her culture and goes back to Jordan to marry her fiance. Although she is in the midst of all the wedding festivities, Tala is conflicted. Does she continue with the wedding with the man she cares for but who she is not in love with or does she follow her heart and be true to herself?

Well, I'm telling you the answer just look it up on the internet and watch it. I think this movie is going right under Boy Culture and above Latter Days in my list of favourite gay movies.

Anyway, here is the trailer:


P.S. The poster makes it appear way sexier that it is.

Here I am breaking the rules again. Today is Good Friday and although I told myself I was only going to slack off for half the day I slacked off all day. I ended up watching two gay movies. Here are the trailers:



There it is I am a fag hag without a fag. Hee Hee. I've even have a favourite gay movie, well, it's the first one I've ever seen, but still my favourite. Trailer:

You see the thing I love about gay movies is the underlying theme of love. Okay, the first movie was about two boarding school girls who loved each other but refused to call themselves gay. It was love in it's purest form and one of them preferred to run away from it than have the label lesbian cast upon her.

The second cut through the concept that the only thing gay men cared about is sex, but they too want something serious, something forever. I liked the movie but it's not my all time favourite.

Now Boy Culture is something I can identify with in terms of love being confusing. The pull and push of the main character is interesting in itself. I mentioned in a previous blog about a guy I refer to as Zen. He is an escort of the straight persuasion, and I think after watching Boy Culture I thought he had something deeper than what he shows on the surface.

Pretty much, I just want love. Not another guy stripping me with his eyes, constantly asking when he can come visit me at home. I want something worth remembering. A good memory was my hand being held, having a stupid smile on my face, being held in the middle of the night. Just being held, sometimes that is all you need.....
