Three states move forward, one state moves back, and Sir Ian McKellen is our favorite mutant, as your AggreGAYtor searches for a superpower.

The Good

Texas tries and fails to block a gay divorce.

Arkansas’ marriage bans have been thrown out altogether.

Kentucky couples not only won their suit for marriage, they recouped their legal fees.

Sir Ian McKellen understands queer subtexts and is optimistic on queer progress.

Carmen Carrera and David LaChapelle role play in the garden of earthly delights.

The Bad

Idaho marriage hopes get put on hold, for now.

The Fugly

Electoral politics in Liverpool involve sex slave smears.
