Okay, relax, France.

In the wake of the French government's legalization of marriage equality, those that oppose same-sex marriage have taken to the interwebs.

But they're not just stopping at denouncing their legislation. Homophobic tweets, including those calling for the death of gays are suddenly trending in the country. 

Mon dieu!! More after the jump.

Men donning skirts and tights (separately or complementary) is certainly not sartorial groundbreaking. Eighteenth century aristocrats, for starters, not to mention flirtations in the fashion world periodically since the 1980s have seen adventurous souls with XY chromosomes courting these boldly ambiguous pieces.

But thanks to a few big name celebrities cosigning the looks like Justin Bieber and Kanye West (who performed at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night wearing a leather skirt and leather male leggings a.k.a. meggings), the "traditionally feminine" items are officially hyped and co-opted by men this season. Are you on board with the look that's already taken over Manhattan, London & Paris and threatens to spread to other cosmopolitan...

Even as a president is outpaced along the evolutionary timeline by a vice president and as North Carolinians have to vote on enshrining redundant homophobia further into the state's law, the trend of Americans supporting civil equality continues federally, according to a new poll released today from Gallup. 

So International Kissing Day isn't until July 6, but as The Huffington Post so aptly pointed out, "National Kiss Day" is a trending topic on Twitter.

We're not the type to rain on someone's tonsil-hockey so by all means, get to kissing!

HuffPo has put together a slideshow (with VIDEO people!!) highlighting 25 of the most talked about same-sex kisses.

Since today's a fake national holiday and all, we implore you to observe it by taking a look after the jump.

Like #ToMyUnbornChild before it, another Twitter trending topic has solicited disgusting and violent anti-gay sentiment from homophobic users. If Child Protective Services didn't start following these child-related Twitter hashtags before, perhaps it will start after a flood of shocking entries to the #ThingsIGottaTeachMySon thread saturated the social network. Some of the most vile responses to the trending topic, after the jump.

Straight men may be the first to line up at the ball park but they are more often than not the last to get in on the fashion game. Just as the highly groomed gay leftover look from yesteryear continues to proliferate among the hetero population, so too has our dated preference for epilation. The New York Times today exposed the newest metrosexual trend: Brazilian waxes for men. 

A few days ago #ToMyUnbornChild became a popular trending topic on Twitter, provoking at least 100 users to use the hashtag to announce they'd murder their kid if they ended up gay. Storified has curated a list of some of the worst offenders. Follow the jump for a handful of the shocking tweets.

Some folks combined their hate of gays with their hate of Valentines Day to come up with the global trending Twitter topic, #FagDay. It's a little shocking because one just assumes the responsible dbags are so brainless that they can't even add simple maths like the above equation! But lo, the addition somehow slipped into the No. 3 trending topic on the social network this morning. 

If you, like us, woke up this morning with a blinding hangover to a litany of Facebook and Twitter updates claiming "Prop 8 was Overturned!," then allow us to take on a role we NEVER assume: the lucid one tasked with pulling the plug on the party. Unfortunately, kids, the article that caused the premature exhilaration amounting to one big social network bukkake is a 16-month old Huffington Post story. Seems someone misread and posted the outdated article to Facebook early Friday before it spread like digital wildfire.

A London bar has given water sports an entirely new definition after installing video games above urinals to help drunk men make less of a, well, splash. Details (and video?!) follow.

A new report commissioned by the Roman Catholic Church finds that homosexuality actually does not have anything to do with the disgusting epidemic of priest abuse. 

All 10 trends on the Top 10 Google Searches in the U.S. for the past 24 hours deal with the historic Northeast blizzard. Unfortunately, the trend we're noticing involves massive floods/evacuations in L.A. last week, and handicapping, record-breaking blizzards in NYC a week later. Hold us?
