It's the classic double standard: If a woman is sexually promiscuous, she's a slut; if a man is sexually promiscuous, he's . . . a man.

The New Gay doesn't usually like hanging out at Town Danceboutique. Unless they're running it.
"Don't like the 'usual' at Town?" TNG writes. "Neither do we."

Zack and Michael have managed to [...]
Zack Rosen over at The New Gay wrote an excellent column the other day about the importance of condom use within the gay community. The post covers a lot of ground—personal responsibility, modes of transmission, casual anal bleeding:
A couple years ago when one of the cutest boys I’d ever seen begged me to fuck him [...]
Yesterday, the Washington Post ran a story on local alternative gay media that featured Zack Rosen, co-creator of D.C. gay blog The New Gay. Rosen helped TNG develop into an exciting new online community that has courted readers and writers from all sides of the community—gay, lesbian, trans, and straight (but mostly, young). The blog [...]
Semper Guy: Phase 1 aims to take the barracks out of Barracks Row
When Phase 1 opened up in Capitol Hill in 1970, it chose an unlikely spot for the District's first lesbian bar: a windowless joint half a block from the historic Marine Corps barracks at 8th and I Streets SE. Now the "nation's [...]
Hush. Grandma loves her "cute" elderly home, which is not overcome with the unspeakable stench of death.
