    • The muffled audio is hard to understand, however, people on social media are suggesting that he’s saying he’s gay.
    • Two hashtags have gone live #LouisWeLoveYouNoMatterWhat and #ImGayItsPrettyUnfortunate.

    Those One Direction boys are constantly surrounded by gossip and speculation, but now Louis Tomlinson, 23, has reportedly been heard to say, ‘I’m gay it’s pretty unfortunate’, during an exchange with a fan in a hotel lobby.

    However, some fans are claiming that Louis was replying to someone else who said their birthday was on the same day. Louis has been dating his girlfriend, Eleanor Calder, for two years.

    You can hear the clip below – what do you think he said?

    The singer, who has over 18 Million followers on Twitter has yet to acknowledge the clip on Twitter, however fans have already created the hashtags, #LouisWeLoveYouNoMatterWhat and #ImGayItsPrettyUnfortunate.

    Last year, Harry Styles admitted during an interview that gender was not an important factor in a relationship.

  • BOOK REVIEW | Simon Vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda

    Coming out is still a huge deal.

    No matter how many people cry out, “it’s 2015, why does this matter anymore?” It does. The stress and worry surrounding sexuality and self-discovery can lead to horrendous consequences. Suicide, lengthy battles with depression and feelings of alienation are still prevalent for many LGBTs in our community.

    Last year a staggering one in ten men who phoned The Samaritans were concerned about their sexuality showing that coming to terms with your own sexuality can be one of the hardest things in life.

    That’s why when books this powerful come along we must pay attention and remember, while things are getting better, we’re not there yet.

    First-time author Becky Alertalli hits the nail on the head with her brilliantly observant story of Simon, a 16-year-old schoolboy who’s just on the cusp of coming out. Not quite there… but nearly.

    Falling deeply in love over emails with an unknown schoolmate only known as ‘Blue’, whom he finds via a random post on the school’s gossip board on Tumblr, Simon is about to learn what it means to come out… Out out.

    A brilliantly confident book which shines the light on the age-old genre of coming of age and taking those hesitant steps in telling the first person, and for once about a boy meets boy and falls head over heels, brilliantly questioning why the white, heterosexual middle classes are always the default.

    Achingly honest and socially awkward; readers will melt for junk food obsessed, mobile phone yielding, indie music loving Simon, who picks his way through sexuality and schoolyard politics to find his true self. They’ll cheer with sheer joy as he takes his small steps out of the closet and laugh heartedly at his first giant leap to his drunken evening out at a gay bar.

    A non-stop page turn-over for those wanting or needing reassurance ahead of their own coming out that it will be okay, or for those who want to fondly remember their first outing with a massive smile on their faces.

  • Top 5 Erotic Games To Play

    Top 5 Erotic Games To Play

    We thought we’d share some games you could play with your partner or F buddy to get the mood going.

    Sound of Silence

    Taking one of your senses out of the equation can heighten the intensity of touch. Get your partner to put on a pair of noise-cancelling headphones before sensually touching them in whichever way you choose. Temporarily removing sounds can help crank up the sensation of your touch on their skin. If you and your partner are game, you can also experiment with blindfolds as another way of stimulating their senses.

    Creative Combinations

     Write down, on a separate card for each, ten intercourse positions you like, and a series of timings from 3 minutes up to an hour. Then take it in turns to pull out two cards, one from each pile, to decide how you’ll make love and how long you’ll make it last.

    Jigsaw Fantasy

    Take a sheet of A4 paper and on it draw a picture of something naughty that you’ve fantasised about doing with your partner. (Don’t worry if you can’t draw!) Cut the paper into sixteen square pieces and hide them around the house. Send your partner hunting for the pieces – you could give them a sexy reward for every one they find. When all sixteen pieces have been discovered, your partner can put the picture together and then act out the fantasy.

    The Erotic Audit

     One of you lies perfectly still, the other touches from head to toe, covering every inch, no missing areas. The receiver murmurs numbers – from 1 to 5 where 1 is good and 5 is amazing – to reflect what feels best… what to do less of… what to do more of… what to keep doing more and more and more.

    Choosing His Spot

    A game just for him. He chooses three sensitive parts of his body – His partner creates a love experience using only those three spots and no other.
