In April, Mic reported on a surprising (but really not that surprising) trend: In the nation’s most homophobic states, gay porn tends to be a hit. Now, a Broadly exclusive echoes what must be a similarly furtive masturbatory pattern in those parts of the country most actively opposed to equal rights for transgender individuals: Anti-trans states just love trans porn — go figure.
To love America is to love all Americans. John Cena takes a break between dropping body slams to drop some truth – that patriotism is more than pride of country, it’s love beyond labels.
While the vast majority of Americans consider themselves unprejudiced, many of us unintentionally make snap judgments about people based on what we see – whether it’s race, age, gender, religion, sexuality, or disability. The Love Has No Labels campaign challenges us to open our eyes to our implicit, or unconscious, bias and work to stop it in ourselves, our families, our friends, and our colleagues.

A woman breastfeeding at a Target, was accosted by a man who was offended by her actions. He called her a ‘whore’ and later stormed off.
“Jessie Maher was enjoying a casual trip to Target on Monday when she paused to feed her child. That’s when a complete stranger started to berate her for breastfeeding in public, according to a post she uploaded to Facebook.
“Before the video started rolling he looked at me and said (very angrily), ‘can’t you do that somewhere else? … That’s fucking disgusting … You are nasty,'” Maher, who lives in Canton, Connecticut, wrote. “I responded with, ‘I am feeding my baby, and I have the right to do it here … walk the fuck away … leave me the fuck alone.'”
“On Tuesday, CNN’s Anderson Cooper called Bondi out for her hypocrisy, grilling her about the contradiction between her recent statements and her anti-LGBT rhetoric in defending the state’s marriage ban, when she had claimed in an official court brief that recognizing other state’s same-sex marriages would “impose significant public harm” on Florida. Cooper asked, in light of that work, “Do you really think you’re a champion of the gay community?”
Bondi responded that her defense of the state constitution “had nothing to do” with not liking gay people. “My lawyer argued a case defending what the Supreme Court allowed the voters to put in our state constitution,” she explained, adding that “those words have never come out of my mouth.”
Cooper observed that, had Florida’s marriage inequality amendment not been struck down, “there would be no spouses [and] boyfriends and girlfriends of the dead would not be able to get information and would not be able, probably even to visit in this hospital.” “Isn’t there a sick irony that you, for years, were fighting that very idea?” he asked her.”
