Its just a picture! Not like they were kissing..on..... an...airplane.. ETA- I went to my first gay club in NYC last year. My friends took lots of picture of me dancing (inappropiratly)with lots of cuties... now if my DH saw those picutes, I would have to do some explaining. But he trusts me and just because I was dancing etc..I was not planning on going home with them. Its just having fun. Its just a picture.

This will be an unpopular statement, but I don't believe Adam is wiser than most people because he has made some serious blunders, such as the AMA's. I think Adam just has balls of steel and doesn't give a fuck what people think. Sending that picture out on twitter is saying he's still going to let his freak flag fly and to hell with what anyone thinks about it. The only reason Adam is getting away with it is because he has an incredible voice and is gorgeous. Let's face it, we are a shallow lot and it took someone with a lot of attributes to break down the barriers most of us have for people who are different from us. Anyone else would not have gotten as far as he has, but on the flip side that bravery has held him back and will continue to do so. He's the first to start his career openly gay, but on top of that he pushes buttons and sometimes tries to do to much too soon, like the AMA's. Adam isn't perfect and isn't the wisest out there, but he is very intelligent and talented and I have no doubt that he will continue to break down barriers in the future even if pictures like he tweeted take him two steps back temporarily. ;D yet again - my Pavlovian response - the AMAs was a strike of genius! Made him into an international star! IMO - by tweeting the beautiful picture he was sharing with us the simple message that he was at the club and having fun and - THE MOST IMPORTANT fact (joking) that he got a new hair arrangement... it is just one of the hundreds of club pictures we've seen and will see in the future... it is just HIM - freak flag or not. For him - it is his life for the last 10 years... and boy - both Adam and his friend are gorgeous! But one must take into account that we all come from different places and life experiences and viewpoints. The AMA's - even Adam said later that was a mistake. And it did cost him. I still cannot watch that performance. It hurts my stomach. As for the club scene - I never had any experience with it before Adam and I'm coming around, abeit slowly. So while some see his friend in that pic as gorgeous and fun - I see him as weirdly far out and almost humping Adam. Please don't so easily dismiss those of us who do not have the same viewpoint or life experience that you do.

Once we change in America, the rest of the world will follow. I think you may be overstating America's power to effect change here. If this were true generally, the world would be a very different place. IMHO.

If one doesn't mind the sometimes graphic talk, '1 Girl, 5 Gays' can be a very entertaining show. (Thanks Canada!) Can be DVR'd from Logo if you get the channel or viewed/downloaded online.
