Daddy, Papa and Me

the men aren't in a relationship. Worst than that, one is a straight Playgirl model. The couple is fake and posing as real.

Read the entire post.

Genre has just given fodder to those who believe gay couples can't stay together in a long-term relationship, monogamous or not. Here we have a gay-themed magazine that has to make up a fake couple from a STRAIGHT man to talk about and profile relationship longevity. One would think that it must be difficult to find long-term gay relationships if a national periodical has to manufacture a long-term couple using a straight pornography model and sell them as real.

Yet, I know there are legions of such couples out there. They could have come to me for their research. I know many personally.

I know a couple that's been together nearly a quarter century and now raising a boy.

I know a couple who have been together for over a decade and going strong and raising two children (and I hope they forgive me for saying so, but they are 'hot' too.. so they'd fit the Genre need for beauty).

Or they could have just looked to the long list of couples and families on my blog to find many long term couples.

Genre attempted to do a good thing (perhaps their tips do work?), and in the end just shot themselves and us in our collective feet. I hope next time they profile a commited gay couple, they do a bit of research and find a real one. It wouldn't have to be much research. Just perhaps pick up the phone or read a blog.
