InTouch Weekly Photoshopped Bruce Jenner's Face on a Woman's Head in New Cover


InTouch Weekly is a trashy magazine. It's full of rumors, lies and mess. But this recent crap took the cake.

Someone thought it was a great idea to photoshop Bruce Jenner's face to this person's head. The cover has angered many people including the trans community.

The folks over at InTouch claimed that Bruce is coming out. They said this info came from an upcoming article in The Advocate, but the classic magazine calls bullshit of InTouch.

This cover is so offensive. Not only to the trans community, but Bruce too. Bruce hasn't confirmed anything and this cover and story is truly ridiculous. What were they thinking? Bruce should sue them.

The Advocate endorses President Obama


This is the first time in years The Advocate endorsed a candidate. Here is one of their reasons why:
Barack Obama is a leader of undeniable accomplishment, vision, and integrity on LGBT rights. His opponent Mitt Romney betrays equality on numerous issues and aligns himself with a faction of the Republican Party that does not include equality among its declared ideals.

The Advocate’s last endorsement was decades ago, but the president’s statement of May 9, unequivocally in favor of marriage equality, along with his record on LGBT rights, has distinguished him for the ages and has made it clear that he is a transformational leader and our best choice for president.

By saying aloud, “I think same-sex couples should be able to get married,” in a televised interview on ABC, he has sparked conversation domestically and internationally. While he is our president at home, globally he’s an icon, a symbol of the promise of America, of the promise of equality. Obama may be the most prominent man on the planet ever, given the pervasiveness of modern media and his anomalous and historic nature as the first black American president; he is surely the single most recognizable head of state on the globe. By virtue of his unique position, his endorsement of marriage equality is not merely rhetoric. His words constitute action. On the very face of it, his statement is enormous, and has the power to move millions in a way that a statement from no other person could have.
