Big gay weddings get a sweet treat, the Dairy State gets weddings galore, and divorce ends in the LSS, as your AggreGAYtor pines for the Sean Penn golden era.

The Good

Marriage is bustin' out all over Wisconsin.

American law firms apparently know which way the trend lines are going..

R. Kelly’s son has come out publicly about his transition.

Big Gay Ice Cream Shop rocks at proposal-making.

Nabisco has made a second queer-friendly promo push, despite backlash from the last one.

John Waters hiked across America and lived to tell the story.

The Bad

Undocumented queer workers face higher rates of hate violence.

Bashed at Detroit Pride? It seems to have happened.

The Fugly

The Texas GOP endorsed ex-gay therapy (among other things), so Texas gays should endorse ex-GOP therapy.
