California-based artist Alex Marsh King is holding a limited edition exhibition of some of his 35mm prints in L.A. for this week only, with photographs of “beautiful near-naked men, and other colorful natural subject matter.”

TWC News Austin livened up its Twitter traffic updates this week with the inclusion of a few photos of naked men. Attention grabbing perhaps, but probably not what their followers were expecting.

Now that she’s no longer hosting Chelsea Lately, Chelsea Handler isn’t holding back, revealing which celebrities she couldn’t bear interviewing for the show.

A gay former prison inmate has shared his ‘survival guide’ to being gay in prison and claimed that openly gay feminine men are treated like royalty.

The mid-term elections started out with a grimace, with Iowa Republican Joni Ernst introducing herself as a castrator of hogs.  But she’s out-polling and out-raising  Democratic Rep. Bruce Braley in their Senate race, one of three races that could lead Republicans to a Senate majority win on Nov. 4 (see Nate Silver’s forecast here.) 

In film, music and fashion, the classics never go out of style. Come Oct. 7, Old Hollywood will undergo an ultimate revival thanks to the release of Karina Longworth’s new book, Hollywood Frame by Frame. The glimpse into movie history features hundreds of never-before-published photographs in the form of contact sheets, which are the prints photographers once used to edit their work prior to the digital age. Longworth has woven these images together to tell the untold stories of stars behind the greatest films of the 20th century. 

Laverne Cox will continue in the fight against bullying by lighting the Empire State Building in New York purple for Spirit Day and National Bullying Prevention Month. Spirit Day has become an annual event encouraging everyone to wear purple or "go purple" online in a stand against bullying and to show support for the LGBT community and especially LGBT youth.

While the Supreme Court continues to weigh in on the freedom to marry for same sex couples, albeit with some rude confusion on Wednesday, others, including California Sen. Dianne Feinstein, are looking at how the winning legal constitutional arguments overturning the marriage bans should also apply to the lingering questions over enforcement of the Windsor decision and the problematic Defense of Marriage Act’s still-on-the-books Section 2.

As we reported Wednesday, the Windsor decision did not completely overturn DOMA. And, as Lambda Legal’s Jon Davidson noted, there are lawsuits against the Social Security Administration and the Veteran’s Administration seeking full and equal benefits called for in that landmark ruling.
