In other words, where Bud Light has buckled unr prsure as bigotry grows agast the LGBTQ+ muny, Gay Water’s creator Spencer Hodson wants his new boozy brand to be the anthis of that. “The key issue that Bud Light tapped to was the fact that they didn’t unrstand their re dience and know enough about them,” Hodson, a gay man, told CNN about the ntroversy that began when the Anhser-Bch beer brand sent fluencer Dylan Mulvaney a n of beer.

“Puttg a product wh the word gay the tle is reprentatn self,” which he hop reclaims the word om the negativy ’s sometim associated wh. The two chatted about the limed amount of gay people wh , and wh Hodson burnt out om his tradnal day job tech, started the nned cktail. Hodson built up a strong social media followg on TikTok and Instagram durg Covid-19 and is g some of the money om that (as well as om iends and fay) to help fund Gay Water.

“Gay is an umbrella term and the ia behd the brand is to be as clive as possible, which means we want alli, we want straight people to be part of this muny we’re buildg.”. For now, Gay Water is sold largely onle (wh a few retailers) and four sugar-ee flavors — watermelon, lime, peach and grapeu — at lnch.

“There’s lots of space the spir-based seltzer tegory which Gay Water n play, pecially if the brand n offer a cultural or emotnal nnectn that will feel more excg than the prospect of another peapple-flavored vodka seltzer om natnal or ternatnal rporatns,” Roth said. Of urse, other drks e the word “gay,” too, cludg Gay Beer and So Gay Rosé, Hodson noted, which are also tryg to reach the queer muny and offer them an alternative the straight-domated space.

History and Facts of the CaseFebary 25, 1971, marks the begng of an attempt on the part of a small group llg self Gay Lib to ga formal regnn as a stunt anizatn at the Universy of Missouri at Columbia, Missouri. On that date, Gay Lib submted three documents to the Missouri Stunts Associatn (hereafter referred to as the MSA): (1) a petn for regnn on the forms provid for that purpose by the MSA, (2) a proposed nstutn and by-laws, and (3) a statement of the purpos of the proposed *1354 anizatn.

[1] Gay Lib's applitn for regnn was given ial nsiratn by the Rul Commtee of the MSA Senate, which approved and remend that the MSA Senate also grant approval. On November 22, 1971, durg the perd that s petn was before SOGA but not yet unr active nsiratn, Gay Lib submted a revised statement of purpos[2] which add tail to the ial brief statement. *1355 Subsequent cisns at higher levels the Universy not to regnize Gay Lib were based largely on Dean Hutchs' veto and s reasong.

Lansford: "On December 22, 1971, the Universy Commtee on Stunt Organizatns, Government and Activi, meetg regular ssn, passed and submted to me a motn llg for the approval of Gay Lib as a regnized stunt anizatn. The very sence of the group their stated purpose is to study the legal and social posn of the state vis-a-vis the issue of homosexualy, an issue nsired to be of val ncern to a small proportn of our stunt body and of ncern generally terms of social attus and social rponse.

First, the specific history relative to the problems of homosexualy that is unique to this Universy reprents a pot of parture for any specific discsn. The "chairone" of this Commtee was Lawrence Egglton, who had also been one of the prime movers behd the Gay Lib applitn for regnn. On December 6, 1972, Edward Thelen, who had replaced Edw Hutchs as Dean of Stunt Affairs, sent a memo to Dave Markee, Director of Stunt Life, exprsg his belief that the Commtee on Sexual Freedom was a "subterfuge for acplishg the regnn (of Gay Lib) vetoed by Dean Hutchs" and directg Markee to refe to act on requts om the Commtee on Sexual Freedom.

There was before the Board at this time an appeal on the same issue om the Gay People's Unn at the Universy of Missouri-Kansas Cy.

GAY LIB

The 290 page transcript of the Augt 13, 1973, hearg reveals that both the Universy and Gay Lib adduced a wi range of evince on three ma issu: (1) the procral steps taken by Gay Lib to ga regnn at the Universy of Missouri at Columbia, (2) whether homosexualy is normal or abnormal and (3) whether Universy regnn of a homosexual anizatn would produce creased vlatns of the Missouri Sodomy Law. There was both lay and expert ttimony on such subjects as the history of the Gay Lib movement, whether i were standard homosexual practice, the alleged homosexual propensi of a mass murrer Hoton then much the news, and the trimental effects on children of "mothers who are overly protective or hostile and rejectg or clgg.
