Happy HomoDays! – The Pansy Division’s “Homo Christmas!” (1995) NWSF Lyrics

The Pansy Division is/was a gay punk rock band that formed in San Francisco, California in 1991 one of the more melodic-oriented bands to emerge from the “queercore” movement that began in the 1980s recording such queercore punks songs which include Nine Inch Males, James Bondage, and “Dirty Queers Don’t Come Cheap”

The band released its last  vinyl 7″ of “Average Men,”  in February 2009

Happy HomoDays! – WATCH: The Liberace Christmas Special (1954) – VIDEO

There can be only one thing that as merry and GAYER than Christmas. LIBERACE!

There really isn’t much written about this Liberace television show episode other than the fact that its called: Liberace Christmas. 

But it’s oh so festive and very very very GAY! (Even though Liberace was claiming to be “straight” at the time.)

You just know that Lee the old gal, was probably decking his halls with the balls of a few stage hands.

Fa la la la la la la la la la!

Enjoy! 

Happy HomoDays! – WATCH: The He-Man & She-Ra: A Christmas Special” (1985) – FULL Video

Seeing how they grew up on Eternia and Etheria, how the hell do He-Man and  She-Ra even know what Christmas is?  Their mom that’s how!  

It turns out Queen Marlena  is  actually from Earth—though for some reason she never shared her holiday memories with the heroic twins until they were fully grown.

Oh, and for extra holiday bonus points:  He-Man and She-Ra were apparently born on Christmas Day!

Nothing quite says a VERY GAY Christmas like He-Man and his BIG sword.

By the power of GAYSKULL!

WATCH: The CHER Show Christmas Episode! (1975) Full Video

Since GLBT news is scarce over this time of year we thought it might be time to dig into the vaults and pull out some holiday nostalgia of yesteryear.

So lets get all gay and Christmasy with this blast from the past as Back2Stonewall presents the 1975 Cher Show: Christmas Episode with guests The Lennon Sisters, The Hudson Brothers, Redd Foxx, and Chastity Bono.

‘Sexually Suggestive’ Hot Naked Man in the Vatican’s Nativity Scene Has Right-Wing Christians Losing Their Minds.

 

The Vatican Nativity scene this year features a hot naked beefy man, a corpse, and no sheep or oxen and it is driving right-wing Christians crazy and to the breaking point this holiday season.

The Nativity scene was donated by the Benedictine Abbey of Montevergine in southern Italy. It features 20 terracotta figures, some as tall as 6 feet, posed over an 860-square-foot scene and created in 18th century Neapolitan style.

The display depicts seven corporal works of mercy. In one vignette, a dead man is being buried, in another a prisoner is visited. The naked man is being clothed.

“A naked man steals the show in the Vatican’s new nativity scene rendition,” declared Veritas Vincit International, a self-described “End Times” blog.

“Most people’s eyes would probably be led first and attracted to the ‘unique’ sight of a naked man prominently featured in the official nativity scene of the Vatican – set right at the forefront of the giant Christmas tree,” the blog insists.

 Some Christian crazies lamented the figure’s “prominent placement and languid pose, at Breitbart, which reported that the figure’s pose “led many on social media to suggest that there is a vaguely homoerotic tone to the scene.”

One observer remarked, regarding the poor man in need of clothes: “I’ve worked with a personal trainer. That guy’s been in the gym two hours a day, six days a week.”

“This horrendous exhibit is a sacrilegious, highly deceitful and malevolent attempt to turn the holy innocence of the manger in St. Peter’s Square into a lobbying tool for the homosexual rights movement, is just the latest fiendish act, but one that’s symptomatic of this entire pontificate,” one source close to the Vatican told extreme right Christian Nationalist  LifeSiteNews.

Of course the Nativity has nothing to do with the LGBT community.

It is the representation of Jesus’ birth is inspired by works of mercy and is a reminder “that Jesus told us: ‘Do to others what you would have them do to you,” Pope Francis said earlier this month in introducing the scene and thanking those who worked on it.

But don’t tell Brietbart and Lifesite.  The sound of their brains exploding is the best Christmas gift ever!

Gay Virginia Man Savagely Beaten, Stabbed on Christmas Day In His Own Home

Inge bashing

Drew Inge, a hair stylist living in Yorktown, Virginia was assaulted in his home on Christmas day, being called a “faggot” while being beaten and stabbed.

Inge suffered a laceration to his eye, was kicked in the head multiple times, had four teeth knocked out and had one hand and multiple fingers broken by an individual identified only as “someone he barely knew.” The remedy to teeth that have been knocked out is dental implant procedure. For more details, look for denture services weeki wachee fl on the internet.

Inge posted the above picture on Instagram recounting the horrific details of his  before removing them, citing “legal reasons”.

The original post read,

“I was thrown into my bathtub, and stomped in the face and jaw over and over while being called a ’faggot’…He tackled me from behind into my door and slammed my fingers on my right hand into the door, breaking them and ripping them open…I’m telling this story as a reminder of the strength I have, the passion for life, and the miracle that I am alive. I will be out of work for a while, and I don’t know the extent of damage done to my fingers but I will be back to do hair, and I won’t let anything stop me.”

His attacker has reportedly been arrested.

Updating the post without many of the above details, Inge writes,

“I had to delete the story due to legal reasons, I’m being advised that it may not be good to even post photos. I’m mad because I don’t see anything wrong with being open and honest about what happened. It’s makes no sense to me why, but needless to say I was attacked, beaten, held against my will, stabbed in the face with a metal object and am now recovering. I won’t be able to work as one of the injuries I sustained was my fingers I use to cut hair being crushed. Im having dental work to have teeth that were stomped out of my face fixed. Sorry I can’t put details on here. But I’m keeping this here as a reminder of the strength I have, the passion for life, and the miracle that I am alive. When you keep things private and don’t say anything, you give those things power over you, and I don’t like that. I will be out of work for a while, and I don’t know the extent of damage done to my fingers but I will be back to do hair in a few weeks hopefully, and I won’t let anything stop me. I’m so overwhelmed with the love I have felt, and I honestly can’t believe the way I am perceived by my friends and family

A family member identified only as Robert Inge, has set up a YouCaring crowdfunding page to help pay for Drew’s medical bills and to offset his loss of wages while he recovers:

As you probably know, Drew is self-employed and all of his income is based on his ability to use his hands to style hair. You may know his Instagram, @hairbydrewinge. Right now he isn’t sure when he will be able to return to work, or how much he will be able to earn with limited use of his hands. We created this fundraiser to help him pay for his emergency room and medical bills, and to go towards his rent and living expenses. Please consider donating any amount, every little bit helps
