Different "Grinders"
Toronto filmmaker Nick Genova took home the top Connect The Dots prize with an amazing entry. His film asked a very simple question—what if skateboarders were treated the way gay people were by society? Suddenly you'd have to hide the fact that you skate from the rest of the world—what if you ran into your boss while skating down the street? Hell, you'd need an app to find people to skate with, cause no one would openly admit they skate. It's fucking killer concept and the video is hilarious. Starring: Paul Liliani, Jesse Landen, Aidan Johnstone and Corey Lof.

HGTV WAS WORRIED AUDIENCE MIGHT THINK BENHAM BROTHERS WERE GAY
Posted by Sarah Miller
Hours after cancelling a reality show about two brothers running a successful house-flipping business, HGTV revealed that the actual reason for the cancellation had nothing to do with revelations that the brothers, David and Jason Benham, were virulently homophobic.
“We have decided to cancel ‘Flip It Forward’ because David and Jason Benham just look so incredibly gay,” said Chip Fordew, an HGTV spokesperson. “Plus, they look like they’re together. And, by together, I mean that they have sex, trade off turns on the Pec Deck, go to Tulum at Christmas, and are adopting a baby.”
He pointed out that, while the network does have a very popular show called “Property Brothers,” also starring two brothers, it’s different. “They’re more into renovation than sales,” Fordew said. “Also, they don’t look like a gay couple.”
Fordew stressed that HGTV has no issue with featuring gay male couples, and pointed out that many members of the L.G.B.T. community were part of the network’s staff, programming, and audience. The problem with “Flip It Forward,” Fordew said, was one of confusion. “People don’t necessarily watch HGTV shows from beginning to end. They tune in and out while they’re doing other stuff. And we imagined our audience suddenly looking up at the television and being like, ‘Whoa. Those two gay guys are hot. How come they never take their shirts off?’ ‘How come they never drink Negronis during the day?’ ‘How come, when that one broke his arm, he just took Advil and his boyfriend never started screaming at him, “Why didn’t you make them write you a prescription for Fentanyl?!” ’ ‘Also, who are those chicks taking care of their kids for free? And why are they always pregnant?’ ”
There was also the problem of billboards and advertising. “We tested a few,” said Fordew. “Everyone was like, ‘We’re excited about that new show with that hot gay couple who look exactly like each other! When do they take off their shirts?’ ”
Asked about a rumor that the Benham brothers, when called at home and informed that HGTV would not be going forward with their show, began to argue about which of them looked more “more gay,” Fordew declined to comment.

Heterosexual men fellated by gay men . . .

Heterosexual men fellated by gay men have lower prostate and testicular cancer risk, study says
By Benderson Hoover on October 30, 2013
Missoula, MT — Heterosexual men who are regularly fellated by homosexual men have a lower risk of developing prostate and testicular cancer, a research study has found.
The “Study On The General Health Benefits Of One-Way Gay Fellatio” was spearheaded by University of Montana Sexual & Liberal Studies research fellow Dr. Wendel Jones, and will be published in the upcoming Spring issue of the Men’s Journal Of Health & Gender. It was initially met with jeers and snickering when first proposed in 2005, but Jones persevered to get funding, and was finally able to get it off the ground a year later.
Conducted over a period of four years, the research involved 600 men aged 23 to 54 who exclusively identify as heterosexual and enjoy penetrative vaginal sex with women. They were divided into two groups: one received oral sex on a daily basis from a team of experienced homosexual men, while the other did not. At the end of the study, all 600 were screened for prostate and testicular cancer. Eight tested positive for prostate cancer; six for testicular. All fourteen were from the group that did not get serviced orally by gay men.
Biologists who have examined the findings believe it may have something to do with “innate body resonance” (IBR), which refers to the human body’s natural, ingrained inclination to react positively to external stimuli coming from another person of the same sex. In this case, the oral stimulation of a man’s genitals by another man results in a positive metabolic effect that is magnified intrinsically by the body and improves its chances of resisting prostate and testicular cancer development.
“Gay men often like to say that no one knows how to please a man better than another man,” said Dr. Gayle Darvill. “Well, it’s not just a pick-up line. It’s innate body resonance.”
Darvill added “it’s no surprise” that fewer gay men die of prostate or testicular cancer. “The gays have unknowingly stumbled on the secret to prostate and testicular health,” said Darvill.
“The evidence is just overwhelming and impossible to ignore,” added Jones, who identifies as heterosexual and also took part in the study. “If you’re a straight guy, getting sucked off by another guy is not as bad as it looks, and does not deserve the social stigma it presently carries.”
Jones said heterosexual men would be “foolish not to embrace” the experience of receiving oral sex from gay men for its proven health advantage, and warned that “now is not the time to be squeamish about one’s prostate and testicular health.”
“Gay men weren’t just put on this earth for their fashion flair, impeccable taste and creativity,” said Jones. “They’re cancer-fighting angels that need to be encouraged, celebrated and, above all, appreciated.”
The study did not look into how giving oral sex to heterosexual men affected the gay men who took part in the study, but it is generally believed that the experience left them with more than a mouthful of great memories.
