I’d love to have a chest like this. #ChestEnvy
Considering the US Supreme Court is expected to rule on Marriage Equality (again) in the coming weeks, and every Republican running for President inferring that gay rights are some how “special rights”, trampling upon individual religious freedoms, I thought it was time to revisit this quote from Ricky Gervais.
Not just anyone can pull off the jeans and no shirt look.
While nothing is certain, there is a great deal of optimism and hope surrounding the pending Supreme Court of the United States ruling on marriage equality. That ruling is expected as early as June 18th but could also be announced on 22, 25, 29, or 30th; the latter two dates (29th & 30th) are considered most likely.
In anticipation of that ruling both the Gay & Lesbian Advocates & Defenders (GLAD) and The Welcoming Committee (TWC) are hosting a free pop-up party in the Back Bay at 6pm the day the ruling is announced.
Since the exact date of the ruling is not certain, check the GLAD & TWC Facebook event page for details once you hear the announcement.
Boyfriends is back this Friday night in JP. If you’ve never been, Boyfriends is a fun, gay dance night at the Milky Way Lounge at 284 Amory Street in Jamaica Plain hosted on the 3rd Friday of each month where resident DJ Brent Covington plays the music you love with a warm and friendly crowd.
Doors open at 10:00 p.m. and there is a $5.00 cover.

Boston’s 45th Pride celebration closes tonight Sunday, June 14th and while I attended fewer events this year than in the past, reports indicate most events were well attended. Once again the surprise highlight of the week was the 2nd Annual Heels for Hope party on June 10th at Cathedral Station raising money for BAGLY.
Warm weather and plenty of sunshine helped bring a larger than expected crowd into Boston on Saturday to watch the parade and parties around the city. Thank you to everyone who shared photographs and were nice enough to pose.
One of the last events for Boston Pride happens to be one of the best. The Boston Pride Back Bay Block Party is always a good time.
There is a $15 donation with $5 going to the Boston Pride Community Fund.
See you there.
OUT Magazine has a nice spread on next week’s Broadway Bares, an annual fundraiser that includes some of Broadway’s most talented and beautiful entertainers to come together and raise money for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. The article looks back at some of the great images captured by usty St. Amand, Jenny Anderson, Andrew Eccles, Kevin Thomas Garcia, Ryan Mueller, Paul Reitz, Daniel Roberts, Jonathan Tichier, Rob Sutton, Tom Viola, Tomas Vrzalax, and Peter. You can read the article here.

Thanks to BosGuy reader, Paul G. for sending me OUT Magazine’s article.
Chandler Street Block Party
One of the most fun events of Boston Pride isn’t even an official Pride event, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t stop by and check it out.
Located on the corner of Chandler and Berkeley Street in the heart of the South End this is a lot of fun when the weather cooperates.
There is a $15 donation collected that goes to AIDS Action Committee so by coming out and having fun with your friends you are actually helping a great local non-profit.
See you there.
Boston Pride is in full swing so Sergio and I will be out enjoying the company of friends. A couple years ago I pulled together a video of Boston Pride Week (at least the events I attended in 2013). If you’ve never been to Boston Pride this gives you a quick look at some of the events. Have a great weekend.
