And sounds like Mormando liv as an openly gay man his new secret life as an ex-mobster—what he's apparently worried about is the fact that his former mob pals now know he was still, newspapers generally tread lightly when to outg. " Thgs have obvly changed sce then, but the paper still hasn't reported affirmatively whether or not Ed Koch, for stance, is gay, and his name didn't e up the paper's review of Outrage, a documentary that claimed no uncerta terms that he, Robert Mormando is pretty much screwed, bee the Tim and the New York Daily News and a bunch of other papers reported what appears to be an accintal self-outg (and y, Gawker picked up).

To be blunt, the Asi regard Barry Diller and many of his young male executiv to be gay, and the Asi referred to gays as "poofters.

From Taki's lumn the 3/7/00 I’m not at all surprised to read that Hollywood is domated by a Velvet Mafia of rich homosexuals who mand sexual favors return for work the movi.

Its sweep of the Amy Awards' top tegori thrilled Hollywood's gay muny, who have been tryg to prove for a long time that heterosexualy is a sad form of sexual dysfunctn. This held that heterosexualy was a curse to be nigrated and mocked wherever possible, and that gays uld never w the power they craved society whout unrmg heterosexuals whenever possible.

At the same time, gays who held this view began agatg for homosexualy to be accepted as a form of behavur on a par wh heterosexual activy. On the posive ont, the radil gays argued that homosexuals should be entled to get married the same way as heterosexual upl, and that schools should teach about gay sex as if were no more normal or abnormal than male-female terurse. Amics began wrg papers argug for gay parentg, g statistics to suggt that children of gay upl had no more emotnal problems that the average child of a 'straight' fay.

On the negative end, gays began unterg unsirable imag of homosexualy - such as the spread of Aids - wh a bleak picture of what they risively lled 'straight sex'.
