Edward Perry Warren, better known as Ned Warren, was an American art collector and the author of works proposing an idealized view of homosexual relationships. Ned commissioned an “anatomically enhanced” version of Rodin’s The Kiss (Le Baiser), telling the sculptor that he wanted the male figure to have a prominent penis. Although earlier versions of this statue did not feature a visible male sex organ, Rodin happily complied. This sculpture, turned down by museums in America for being too explicit, now resides at London’s Tate Gallery.
You can read more about Ned and John’s rather remarkable relationship here.

One month ago the massacre in Orlando took place. Last month Matthew Breen, editor-in-chief of The Advocate responded with the anger and passion many (myself included) felt following the tragedy. Much thanks to Bob from I Should Be Laughing blog for sharing this.
“I’ve got something to say to those who would do us harm; to those right wing politicians and religious fanatics [The Advocate] too often covers: You cannot relentlessly discriminate against us and dehumanize us and then stand back and act shocked when someone takes your ideas into his black rotted heart and slaughters us in those places where we gather for community. We are not interested in your prayers unless they are followed up with action. And we do not accept that living in this country means lining up for a massive game of Russian roulette. There is no justification on earth for giving madmen access to mass murder machines. So listen up you Mitch McConnell’s, Pat McCrery’s, Wayne, LaPierre’s, Family Research Council, and all you bigots who methodically work to keep us down and keep the madmen armed, ‘You have f**ked with the wrong group of people.’ In case you have not been paying attention these last fifty years, this community is strong, resilient, very effective and mightily pissed off. We will not permit your insane brand of fundamentalism and we’re coming for your assault rifles, too.”
Words have meaning; words have consequences. Sticks and stones; words hurt sometimes worse than sticks and stones. They hurt like bullets.
