The Pool Boy and the Priest

No. That’s not the title of an erotic gay romance. It’s about a California priest who was allegedly sending sexts to a pool boy.

Monsignor Lawrence McGovern is, er, was the pastor of Presentation Parish. In a sexual harassment complaint filed late last week, the parish’s former pool boy, a married father of two, claims McGovern sent him naughty photos along with a text that read, “Oops. Sorry about that. The curse of the Internet. Shame on me. What is my penance?”

Supermarket All Gay Kiss-In Protest

I understand the point behind protests like this, and I do support them in theory. I just wish they would come up with a better idea sometimes…like hand holding, or hugging. Maybe I’m wrong.

I really do.

Whether battling homophobia, book bans, or frump-a-dump Kim Davis, kissing has proven to be a surprisingly effective form of protest.

Case in point: Saturday’s well-attended “kiss-in” at Sainsburys, a supermarket in London that made headlines last week after one of its security officers told a gay couple that holding hands inside the store was inappropriate.
