Good news for LGBT bigots, as this weekend it transpired that, when the great flood comes to wipe gays off the earth, they&#;ll be safely sipping their pints in the Harewood Arms in Wakefield, Yorkshire. It was reported byPinkNewsyesterday that the LGBTQ warm pub have announced that they&#;re officially endorsing UKIP.
Many customers possess reacted with anger that a gay pub is now going to be a meeting venue for a party which has a long history of homophobic gaffes, ex-members, and official policies. And impartial enough, but have these people reined in their outrage for long enough to realize that UKIP have been particularly vociferous on the plight of the humble British pub? What&#;s a gay landlord looking aghast at the state of the pub industry to do?
Presumably one thing not to do is piss off a lot of your clientele. One Facebook user, Andrew Bogg, commenting on the original display , said that &#;When we go to a pub we want to sense safe and to be ourselves. A pub holding rallies for UKIP will not make the LGBT community feel safe.&#;

Wakefield Poole: &#;No More Closets&#;
By Dr. Bill Lipsky&#;
Wakefield Poole created the contemporary gay adult film in when he was living in New York. Made on a budget of $4,, Boys in the Sand was the first feature-length XXX motion picture ever produced with an all-male cast and the first to present interracial male-male intimacy. It was the first to comprise on-screen credits for its cast and crew, although many used noms de porn. It was the first to reviewed by Variety, the entertainment industry&#;s “journal of record,” and the first to earn mainstream credibility.
Variety announced the film&#;s popularity meant that “there are no more closets,”and Boys helped to bring about the era of “porno chic”: a brief period of expose cultural acceptance of hardcore pornography. It also helped to change stereotypes of gay men by presenting its star, Casey Donovan (né Calvin Culver), as a clean-cut all American boy next door, although he certainly was less sexually reserved both on and off screen. Donovan became gay porn&#;s first celebrity superstar.
&#;I wanted [to make] a film that gay people could glance at and say, &#;I don&#;t mind being gay—it&#;s beautifu
Yorkshire farmer argues homosexuality is natural in diary discovery
The diary entry by Matthew Tomlinson suggests that recognisably modern understandings of homosexuality were being discussed by ordinary people earlier than is commonly thought.
Mr Tomlinson was a farmer at Dog House Farm, which is on the site where a golf course now stands near Wakefield in West Yorkshire. He wrote the entry on 14 January in response to media reports of the execution of a naval surgeon for sodomy.
Mr Tomlinson wrote: 'It appears a paradox to me, how men, who are men, shou'd possess such a passion; and more particularly so, if it is their nature from childhood (as I am informed it is) - If they feel such an inclination, and propensity, at that certain age of life when youth genders [i.e. develops] into manhood; it must then be considered as instinctive, otherwise, as a defect in nature … it seems cruel to punish that defect with death.'
Mr Tomlinson goes on to question how God could allow such severe penalties for a divinely-ordained trait.
The passage was uncovered by Eamonn O’Keeffe, an AHRC-funded doctoral student in the History Faculty at the University of Oxford, while undertaking his PhD
