Chubarama posted this video and I just have to copy it here: it’s the most awesome Jon Stewart’s “Gaywatch” segment in The Daily Show, and one of them is about my hero, Will Phillips. You just have to watch it. (And a big LOL at Jon’s comment at the “What is a ‘gaywad’?” question.)
It is news such as this that makes me glad that I belong to the human race. It’s crazy to think that a 10-year-old boy would make a stand for something that doesn’t even involve him. Because of it, he’s ridiculed in his school and called a “gaywad.” When awkwardly asked with a “cute & funny” question, “What’s a ‘gaywad’?” Will replied:
I really don’t know. It’s a discriminatory name for homosexuals.
I love this kid! Ask a stupid question, you get a smart, perfunctory response from a. 10. year. old.
It’s interesting how the boy is more mature about the whole situation while his dad and the newscaster found the situation a bit humorous. This is not an attack on either of them, but this is just my observation based on how they interviewed and talked to the boy. The dad for instance started laughing when his son described how his classmates assumed that he was gay. Granted, the father is already involved in a very sticky situation and he’s an amazing father for supporting his son’s First Amendment rights. Still, point is, what if his son was gay? (But my have-a-chill-pill nitpickiness was thrown out the window when the dad lovingly elbowed Will at the end of the interview. It was such an “Awwww” moment.)
Nevertheless, Will Phillips is my hero. He’s only lived in this world for 1 decade, and he fully understands the concept of “Equal Rights.”
And, since this blog is about bear eye candy, Jay Phillips is definitely a very handsome bear. His reactions are utterly cute and adorable. You can see his right thumb quivering in the video while my hero kept picking on the threads of his jeans. I now want that t-shirt…
I was sorting through my emails when I noticed an email from Billy Villegas and I literally fainted. After recuperating, I read through the email and I was glad to hear that he and his wife enjoyed my post about him. Not only do I already think that Billy is way cool for all the right reasons, he then tells me that he’s involved with this PSA video about the 2010 California Marriage Protection Act:
Thank you, Mr. Villegas. I am grateful to always find heterosexual folks taking the time to support equal rights for the LGBT community. Thank you very much…
We finally got to see some video footage of John Marcotte from RescueMarriage.org. You might not recognize him with hair and sans sunglasses, but his undeniably woofy looks are not to be disputed. I really can’t wait to see what happens to his ballot proposal in outlawing divorce in California…
No funny jokes nor innuendos here. It’s awesome to know that Jeff Saturday is supporting a good cause to raise awareness and money in finding a cure for breast cancer. Thank you to Clarian Health for these fantastic photos from Susan G. Komen’s Race For The Cure event on April 18, 2009.
Let’s end this with Jeff Saturday sharing a part of himself through his autographs.
Thanks to everyone who have emailed me about John Marcotte and his quest to get a voter’s initiative on the California 2010 ballot called the “2010 California Marriage Protection Act.” If it gets passed, registered voters from California will have the opportunity to finally cement a complete and utter protection to “Traditional Marriage.” Check out boingboing for more info.
His website RescueMarriage.org must be visited by everyone, especially by our friends who oppose same-sex marriage. Here are some choice snippets from his site…
I’m Catholic. My faith teaches me that divorce is a sin. I don’t believe that the government should be indoctrinating our children — telling them that divorce is “cool” or “legally permissible.” That type of moral decision should be taught within the confines of the family. It is not the government’s job to teach our children what to think about the morality of divorce.

Jesus says getting divorced is a sin:
Mark 10:9-11
9 Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate.”
10 When they were in the house again, the disciples asked Jesus about this.
11 He answered, “Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her.
12 And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery.
Interestingly, Jesus never once even mentioned homosexuals or homosexual behavior. I assume this was some sort of clerical oversight that will be rectified during the end of days as described in the Book of Revelation. Perhaps during Satan’s 1,000 year reign. I’ll get back to you on that one.
Awesome. Just awesome.
Pass this news to everyone…
And in related bear news, how seriously hot is John Marcotte? Thank you, Mr. Marcotte. Thank you very much…

Matthew Broderick is not “bearish” (just my opinion), however, he has an important announcement for my fellow Americans/registered voters. Sure, he’s a bit biased with this announcement, but whoever you do side with, make the moment count by doing what you can to assist and influence others. Tomorrow is our last chance. I’m definitely taking the day off…
