10 ‘Gaycons’ That Should Go Away for Good

Melissa Etheridge

One minute the “Come to My Window” crooner is speaking out against California’s same-sex marriage ban with wife Tammy Lynn Michaels by her side, the next she’s serving said wife with divorce papers. Michaels, via her blog, claims that she was blindsided by Etheridge’s filing and left broke with two toddlers to feed – and if that’s the case, shame on the lesbian rock legend. Spousal support doesn’t just apply to straight people; you can’t pick and choose what aspects of traditional marriage you want to honor. Besides, with 27 million records sold worldwide surely Etheridge can show a little sympathy for the mother of her twins – if only so she can stop scrounging up gas money from the couch cushions.

Michael Lucas

Besides being one of the most loud-mouthed figures in gay culture – and a pornographer (doesn’t that say it all right there?) – Lucas is also an unapologetic bigot: He hates Muslims, and he’s not afraid to shout it from the rafters. Combine those dastardly traits with an unequivocally petty persona that can’t handle when people call him out on his own ignorance and you’ve got a grandstander of inferior design. But that’s neither here nor there. Lucas never could keep his mouth shut – in person or on screen – so his latest nonsensical statements shouldn’t shock. He enjoys rocking the boat, so long as the boat is filled with bare-chested, non-Islamic boys and wads of cash. Here’s hoping that his ship sinks sooner than later.
