Grindr is setting its sight on conquering the mainstream with a new location-based dating app for heterosexuals, Project Amicus. Will it work? 

LGBT community-ally Daniel Radcliffe recently sat down for an interview with Katie Couric to reveal what he's proudest of doing in his life to date. (Hint: it involves us gays!)

Whereas "It Gets Better" focuses on adults sharing inspiring stories with gay youth about what the future might hold for them, the "Make It Better" Project's goal is to help LGBT youth make their schools and communities more tolerant now. Here's one of our favorite videos uploaded to "Make It Better" so far.

A group of students in the Fargo South High School production of The Laramie Project might have a future in PR.

The students in question, all cast members in the school play, sent the Westboro Baptist Church emails from fake accounts in a request for the infamous hate group to bring a protest -- and the national attention that come with it -- to their school. Westboro, still not understanding that its lunacy and often-confusing signs afford its targets more positivity nowadays than the negativity it intends, took the bait and agreed to protest Fargo's play. However, when police caught wind of the impending Westboro visit, an investigation was launched and the fake emails from the students discovered.

Sure, Matt Zarley was People Magazine's first openly-gay "Most Eligible Bachelor," but he's easy on the ears, too. He rose the Billboard Club Charts with a focus on the dance genre, but in an effort to raise money for (and awareness of) the incredible Trevor Project, Matt turns it down a few notches to cover Pat Benatar's classic 80s hit "We Belong."

In a move that makes the Human Rights Campaign's acquisition of Harvey Milk's iconic Castro camera shop more palatable, the Trevor Project has announced a partnership that will take place in the building. The organization's esteemed Lifeline -- a crisis and suicide-prevention call center for struggling LGBTQ teens -- will now boast workspace alongside HRC in the historic building. In addition to the cohabitation, HRC has pledged a $10,000 annual donation for every year of the partnership. 

Feel better about HRC's decision to move into Milk's old campaign headquarters?

A professional-quality video of Darren Criss performing at last weekend's Trevor Project holiday gala in Los Angeles has surfaced, including the smoldering Glee actor's rendition of "Not Alone" and "Teenage Dream" (w/ Katy Perry). If you managed to remain one of the few souls not smitten with love for Darren, consider this a warning that viewing this video might be all it takes to push you over to the dark-side (join us!) of Darren fandom...

Mondo Guerra, one of Instinct’s shining Leading Men of 2010 and gaydored Project Runway contestant (he was robbed) from the show’s most recent season, already helped the HIV positive community by announcing his positive status during a season 8 episode; now he’s increasing his advocacy by designing a World Aids Day t-shirt for Piperlime.

“I believe fashion can serve a purpose so I designed these T-shirts with the idea of loving and communicating with one another,” Mondo said. “The tree is a symbol of growth and loving yourself and the skull represents family and friends and remembering those who have passed.”

The tees will be sold at Pipeline.com beginning December 1 (World Aids Day) for $50.00, with $20 from each sale benefitting...

Developmental psychologist Ritch Savin-Williams thinks so.

In an essay penned for the Good Men Project (an acclaimed, inclusive online men’s publication that includes a FTM columnist), Savin-Williams argues that most GLBT teens are doing just fine. Savin-Williams goes further to suggest that the "It Gets Better" campaign might actually make things worse for GLBT youth by “promoting a false suicidal script.”

Writes Savin-Williams in a piece titled “The Gay Kids Are All Right”:

The recent tragic deaths of several teens who were gay, or were believed to be gay, have received national attention and reminded us of the unrelenting pain and desperation that we believe characterize the lives of gay youth. But this portrait is an...

The One and Only Janet Jackson (who stars in the new film For Colored Girls) appeared on CNN to discuss her new film and update fans on her life. But, in typical Janet fashion, she took a moment to mention the gay bullying epidemic and her suport for The Trevor Project. Fawn, fairies, fawn...

A meeting of the Leading Men minds is happening—and now all we need is our readers!

You read about Frantz G. Hall and his work on New York's live gay talk show Qtalk in this month's Leading Men feature. And now Frantz and his Qtalk co-hosts are teaming up with another Leading Man, GLAAD's Jarrett Barrios, as well as Instinct for a very special Qtalk next Saturday, Nov. 20.

The hosts, along with special guests Barrios and psychologist and author Dr. Jacqueline Gunn, will take on the topic of bullying and gay youth suicides for what promises to be one of the most important Qtalk shows yet. Also stopping by the show will be composers and writers   Blair Shepard and Jay Kuo, who wrote the charity single “It Gets Better,”...

Whether this is Kristen Wig or the real Suze Orman, we’re not entirely sure. All we know is this powerful, slightly intimidating contribution to the It Gets Better campaign makes us like the lesbian powerhouse even more…

Gap Inc. joins the list of corporations telling gay teens that It Gets Better. Now if only the company can move on to help it get better for gay adults by making the fits available at their stores less “American husky”…
