    Staffordshire cops were appealing for witnesses after disturbing anti-gay and homophobic grafitti was sprayed on over two dozen vehicles and buldings.

    The graffiti was found in Chadsmoor, near Cannock. It is believed the grafitti was done on the night of the 23rd December 2018.

    According to reports 26 cars and vans were targetted as well as numerous buildings and garages,including Curlew Hill, Kelvin Drive and Huntingdon Terrace.

    A Staffordshire Police spokesperson said, “Officers are investigating homophobic graffiti found on cars and buildings in Chadsmoor overnight.

    “In total 26 cars and vans were spray painted, as well as walls and garage doors, in various streets including Curlew Hill, Kelvin Drive and Huntington Terrace.

    “Increased patrols will be in the area this evening. We take this type of graffiti seriously and witnesses, or anyone with information, are asked to call 101 quoting incident 129 of December 23.

    Taking to Twitter the police released a picture of someone they’d wanted to speak to in connection with the grafitti and confirmed on Christmas eve, that an arrest had been made, they wrote, “We have arrested a 41-year-old man of no fixed address on suspicion of criminal damage in relation to the graffiti of multiple vehicles in Chadsmoor on Saturday night. The man is now being questioned in custody.

  • Lord Sugar says he’s had enough Puffs in his boardroom

    Lord Alan Sugar has come under fire for a “joke” he posted on his Twitter feed.

    After one user tweeted Alan Sugar picture of him superimposed on a cereal box with sugar “puffs” written over the top of his head, captioned “I found your next business venture” Lord Sugar replied, “hah… I have enough puffs who come through my boardroom”

    However Twitter users were quick to call out the Tweet as homophobic and bigoted living the billionnaire businessman having to explain that the tweet was “a bloody joke” and that puffs was not a homophobic slur.

    He added, “A lady posted a funny picture of me on a Sugar Puffs cereal packet. I replied Hah.. I have enough puffs coming through my board room. Meaning PEOPLE FULL OF HOT AIR.”

    Pouf or Pouf?

    It’s all in the spelling apparently. Puff means, according to the Oxford Dictionary, “A short, explosive burst of breath or wind.

    However “Pouf” is the offensive terms usually hurled at effeminate gay men.

    This year’s Apprentice had just one LGBT+ cast member, in Frank Brooks, who was elimated early on in the series. The popular television series for the BBC has never had an openly gay winner and has had zero transgender representation in its 14 year history.

    Looking for gay chat in London?

    If you’re fed up of dating apps and want to make a more meaningful connection with gay, bi or curious fellas in London then maybe it’s time to go a little old school and join our social network.

    Not everything has to be a swipe, like or a tap. In fact, you could be building a more meaningful relationship with someone, over the internet without being on a dating app constantly.

    Within a month we’ve already grown our member to over 3500 people and it’s growing every day.

    There are loads of reasons to join a gay, bi and curious social network as opposed to a dating app. Many dating apps require you to have your GPS on – rather than you being able to select a general area.

    Also, not everything has to be a dick picture. Why not create a more meaningful connection with someone based on other interests beside what’s between your legs?

    Lastly, you don’t have to settle for a Mr Right Now. Why not build more friendships which can lead to a Mr Right, full-stop.

  • Horrifying computer game sees JESUS murder gay people on the streets

    Horrifying computer game sees JESUS murder gay people on the streets

    A brand new video game sees a variety of right-wing figures, as well as Jesus, slashing, gunning-down and murdering LGBT+ people in the streets.

    The computer game, called, Jesus Strikes Back, which is set to be released in 2019 is essentially a shoot-em-up “zombie” computer game in which the objective is to kill gay, trans, non-binary as well as other social justice campaigners people in the streets.

    The game is due to be launched in just over a month. Although there is no mention of what platform the game is for or by which method people will be able to obtain the game.

    The creators say that the gamer takes on the role of Jesus (or a host of other characters) to travel through various cities leaving a “wave of dead terrorists and radicals in his path” in a game which it says it “fun for all the family”.

    The radicals are described as social justice warriors, radical feminists, radical LGBT militants, illegal aliens, terrorists, doctors, socialist politicians and a “radical frenzied NON-BINARY, GENDER FLUID pansexual humanoid berserker”.

    It describes the LGBT militants as people who will attack anyone who is not a member of their military group.

    Capital cities include, Washington D.C, London, Tokyo, Paris, Berlin, Moscow and Jerusalem.

    In the game, it seems as though the player can throw victims off buildings echoing the horrendous means by which ISIS fighters have executed gay men in Iraq and Syria.

    Players can also bludgeon victims with an axe or shoot victims in the head.

    The Killers

    Players have a host of killers they can play as. Jesus is the main character however there is a choice of “Dolf” a character who looks similar to Adolf Hilter, “Tromp” who has the trademark hairstyle of President Donald Trump, Pootin, who has a very similar look to President Putin as well as other figures similar to historical leaders and tyrants. The game’s creators deny that the characters are based on real-life people.

    The Creators

    The game has been created by four people, who are largely anonymised or known solely by their first names. “John” who financed the game says he’s “Christian first, Republican second and is “no stranger to the old “elbow-grease”.

    “Anon” is  “A man dismayed at the overwhelming political correctness engulfing the USA and the rest of the world, he now fuels his rage into the development of JSB”

    “Anon 2” is “An anonymous European Union resident. The anguish he feels at the EU suppressing his free speech rights drove him to work on JSB”

    “Edge” is described as  “a retired full-time edgelord before joining the JSB: JD team. He has seen some edgy things in his time and  now manages the edge factor of JSB”

    Support by PayPal

    Supporters are also reminded that they can donate by PayPal in order to help pay for the game to be financed. Supporters can choose to make their donation monthly or one-off payment.

    THEGAYUK.com reached out to PayPal for comment who told us there were “looking into it, however won’t be able to comment further due to customer confidentiality”.

  • Britney’s biggest hits ranked

    Britney’s biggest hits ranked

    If there’s a top list of Britney tracks to be compiled… leave it to the gays

    It came as a shock. Especially for those of us who pretend to still be in our twenties (even if it’s only late twenties) when we were clearly old enough to go clubbing when Britney Spears‘ first hit soared up the charts.

    The shock is that song, “Baby One More Time” recently turned 20… that, as Patsy Stone says, make us “how old”?

    via GIPHY

    So here are our top 10 Britney hits – to make it on to this list we only used songs that reached at least top three in the UK charts.

    10) Born To Make You Happy 1999 / …Baby One More Time

    Weirdly this doesn’t even come close to the strongest ballad on her debut album, but it still made number 1 in the UK charts – this song? Huh? and not “Sometimes” which was arguably the summer song of 99.

    “Born to Make You Happy” is a typically 90s produced song with not a real instrument in sight and drum loops galore and a reminder that wah wah guitar doesn’t just belong in the 70s. The accompanying video is a proper piece of 90’s music video nostalgia. No real storyline, but the singer looking pretty is key – in at least three costume changes. They could be scenes from three separate songs really.

     

    9) Piece Of Me 2007 / Black Out

    We love the self-confessional vibe of the lyrics in this song, detailing all the things that had happened to her during her runaway years. Remember the marriages, the hair shaving, the babies, not controlling her own finances? She may seem to have shiz altogether now, but there was a time during the 00s when Brit Brit went Kray Kray. Afterall she was, as she says in the song, “been on the scene since I was 17”.

    8) Opps!… I Did It Again 2000 / Opps!… I Did It Again

    More of the same really after her epic hit, “…Baby One More Time”, but we in the UK lapped it up nonetheless, as it became her third number 1. The American’s didn’t like it as much and the song peaked at 9. “Opps!… I Did It Again” was more meaty than”…Baby One More Time” in terms of production but had an epically camp midsection in which she has a conversation with one of the song’s writer Max Martin about a piece of jewellery. The song is so similar to…Baby One More Time you can pretty much sing the lyrics in the chorus of “Opps!… I Did It Again”

    7) Me Against The Music 2004 / In The Zone

    Britney’s fourth album In the Zone brought an entirely new sound for Spears. “Me Against The Music” was her call to fans, press and the industry to take her seriously as a pop artist rather than just a bubblegum princess. The song saw her team up with Pop Queen Madonna and had a mad bridge to the chorus with so so many words.

    6) Everytime 2004 / In The Zone

    Britney does pop music. She does it very well – not so much the ballads which can come off a bit cheesy – just listen to “Dear Diary” on her first album if you need any proof, but “Everytime” is beautiful. It is also one of the rare songs that Brit herself has written. Apparently, the song is an answer to Justin Timberlake’s “Cry Me A River”. The two had been pop’s biggest power couple, but split in 2002. The breakup was used by their respective labels to push album sales.

    5) Womanizer 2008 / Circus

    By 2008 Britney was back on track throwing out albums again after a short break. She released Blackout in 2007, Circus in 2008  and single’s collection in 2009. Womanizer is a catchy girl anthem against cheating womanizing men. The song was deemed by many critics as her definitive comeback single.

    4) Gimme More 2007 / Blackout

    When Britney had her meltdown in the middle of the 00s, fans weren’t sure whether she’d actually pull through. Everyday brought more news about her antics and the break down of her mental health. So when it was announced that she was working on new material fans were gifted with “Gimme More” with the now legendary saying “It’s Britney Bitch” cemented into pop consciousness forever. However, her first outting of the song on the 2007 MTV Video Music Awards was panned by critics.

    The video looked incredibly cheap, almost as though her label had given up hope on Britney’s staying power at the top, how wrong were they were. The song reached number three in the UK and the US. The album went on to sell over 3,000,000 copies worldwide.

    3) My Prerogative 2004 / Greatest Hits: My Prerogative

    It was Britney second single that wasn’t originally hers (the first was “I Love Rock and Roll” in 2002)- it was a Bobby Brown hit before Britney had it. I’m going to say something controversial here. Hers was better. Soz not soz. It reached number 3 in the UK, but failed to chart in the US. The song starts with Britney breathing the lyrics “People can take everything away from you / But they can never take away your truth / But the question is, can you handle mine?” Little did we know that Britney’s truth was going to become tabloid fodder for years after this track.

    2) Toxic 2004 / In The Zone

    Did you know this iconic pop song was originally offered to Kylie Minogue? But she rejected it… For Brit it went on to become one her biggest selling singles of all time. It even won her a Grammy, her only Grammy. Accompanying the song was video, which is a calling for every gay boy to pretend to be a flight attendant… okay maybe that’s just me.

    1) …Baby One More Time 1998 / …Baby One More Time

    Well, it’s the song that launched her career and there’s no other song in the world that can fill a dance floor in just three notes. The album it came from, released in January 1999 went to sell over 25,000,000 copies worldwide, making Britney a somewhat overnight success.

  • 40 years ago today, Harvey Milk was murdered

    American politics was filled with a sea of heterosexual faces, sometimes fiercely homophobic, but mostly irreverent towards the gay community, that was until Harvey Milk entered the political arena.

    Daniel Nicoletta – Provided by author, Daniel Nicoletta

    Harvey Bernard Milk was born in the cold and wet winter of 1930, his birthplace was Woodmere, a small, hard-working, middle class, close-knit hamlet in Nassau County in the state of New York. After graduating in 1951, Milk joined the United States’ Navy, during the Korean War, he served aboard a rescue submarine, the USS Kittiwake – and later transferred to San Diego to serve as a diving instructor. He was discharged from the Navy in 1955.

    Harvey Milk could be described as one of life’s wanderers until he moved to San Francisco he was a teacher, an actuarial statistician, a researcher, and a presidential campaigner, he worked in investments and for a theatre company.

    He was a drifter, moving from California to Texas to New York and back again, without a steady job; eventually, Milk with his then-partner Scott Smith opened a camera shop on Castro Street in San Francisco with their last $1,000.

    He moved from New York City to San Francisco in 1972, amid a mass migration of gay men to the Castro District. The gay’s growing political and economic power ensured that people like Milk could take advance to promote their interests.

    Initial political aspirations

    Milk ‘s initial reception by the already installed gay political establishment could be described as cold, Jim Foster who had been active in gay politics for ten years resented Milk asking him for endorsement to becoming a City Supervisor, Foster told Milk,

    “There’s an old saying in the Democratic Party. You don’t get to dance unless you put up the chairs. I’ve never seen you put up the chairs.”

    Undeterred Milk won the support and endorsement of local gay bars and business owners, who had become disillusioned by the slow-moving pace of the already visible gay political movement.

    Milk had an inimitable political style; his exuberant speeches and his astute media skills earned him significant press during the 1973 election, however, he failed to win.

    Although Milk was a newcomer he had shown flair for leadership, he was starting to be taken seriously as a candidate and decided to run again as a City Supervisor and started using his camera store as a centre of activity in the Castro neighbour. The community rallied around Milk and voluntarily helped run his campaigns for him.

    This time round Milk came 7th in the election, just one place away from earning a Supervisor seat.

    First openly gay commissioner in the US

    Milk became the first openly gay commissioner in the United States after the newly elected Mayor George Moscone appointed him to the Board of Permit Appeals in 1976 where he worked just 5 weeks in the job before running for the California State Assembly.

    Milk was described as a man of mixed temperament and of disorganisation. His campaign volunteer database comprised of just scraps of paper and his campaign manager’s assistant was an 11-year-old girl.

    His accounting was erratic, reportedly grabbing fistfuls of cash from his store’s cash register. He was prone to amazing outburst of momentary temper before shouting excitedly about something else. Described as manic, one could not fault the man for his dedication and general good humour.

    In 1977 his last campaign to become a City Supervisor, Milk’s showboating, handshaking and manic campaigning tactics won him a position, but with his victory came the distinct threat of assassination. He began to record his thoughts for preservation in case he was killed, stating, “If a bullet should enter my brain, let that bullet destroy every closet door”.

    As the first openly gay, non-incumbent man in US history his swearing in as City Supervisor made national headlines, giving the gay community a positive visibility that it hadn’t enjoyed before. He started in office sponsoring a civil rights bill that outlawed discrimination based on sexual orientation, it was met with no opposition apart from Dan White, who Milk had increasingly bad relations with after Milk switched his vote in supporting a health facility for troubled adolescents be placed in White’s District.

    His personal life at the time was one filled with sadness; he had long split with Smith and had begun a relationship with a man 18 years his senior; Jack Lira who hanged himself after being consumed with sadness with the anti-gay campaigns of Anita Bryant and John Brigg.

    The John Briggs Initiative known as Proposition 6 would have made the firing of any gay teacher or public school employee who supported gay rights mandatory. Brigg’s stated that gay teachers wanted to recruit and molest children; Milk refuted this with statistics compiled by law enforcement that most paedophiles were identified as heterosexuals.

    Brigg’s campaign came off the back of singer Anita Bryant’s “Save Our Children” campaign in Florida which repealed a law which ended discrimination based on sexual orientation.

    During the summer of 1978, gay pride marches found their attendance level rise, with over 250,000 people attending San Francisco’s Gay Freedom Day Parade. This is where Milk gave an impassioned ‘Hope Speech’

    “On this anniversary of Stonewall, I ask my gay sisters and brothers to make the commitment to fight. For themselves, for their freedom, for their country … We will not win our rights by staying quietly in our closets … We are coming out to fight the lies, the myths, the distortions. We are coming out to tell the truths about gays, for I am tired of the conspiracy of silence, so I’m going to talk about it. And I want you to talk about it. You must come out. Come out to your parents, your relatives.”

    Even though Anita Bryant’s campaign had been successful in Florida, Brigg’s initiative failed by more than a million votes. In San Francisco alone 75% voted against the proposition.

    Who was Dan White?

    On 10th November 1978, Dan White resigned stating that the yearly salary of $9600 was not sufficient to support his family, days later he asked Mayor Moscone for his resignation to be withdrawn, although the Mayor initially agreed, after further consideration and consultation with the other city supervisors, Moscone was persuaded to install someone who represented White’s district which was growing in ethnic diversity.

    On 27th November 1978, Harvey Milk would wake for the last time, in his beloved adopted town of Castro.

    Half an hour before the press conference in which Mayor Moscone was to announce White’s replacement, White entered City Hall with a gun undetected and made his way to the Mayor’s office. Witnesses recall hearing shouting, between the two men followed by four gunshots.

    White had shot Moscone once in the shoulder, once in the chest and twice in the head.

    After reloading his gun, White intercepted Milk – an argument ensued, followed by more gunshots as he emptied 5 hollow-point bullets into Harvey Milk’s head and body.

    The President of the Board of Supervisors, Dianne Feinstein found Harvey Milk and identified both bodies.

    It was Feinstein, who announced to the press,

    ‘Today San Francisco has experienced a double tragedy of immense proportions. As President of the Board of Supervisors, it is my duty to inform you that both Mayor Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk have been shot and killed.”

    Milk was 48 and Moscone was 49.

    Milk’s legacy is still felt to this day, in the last year of his life, he empowered gay people to be more visible; to help themselves to end the discrimination and violence against them. In his final statement during the taped prediction of his assassination he said,

    ‘I cannot prevent anyone from getting angry, or mad, or frustrated. I can only hope that they’ll turn that anger and frustration and madness into something positive, so that two, three, four, five hundred will step forward, so the gay doctors will come out, the gay lawyers, the gay judges, gay bankers, gay architects … I hope that every professional gay will say ‘enough’, come forward and tell everybody, wear a sign, let the world know. Maybe that will help.

    Although his time in politics was relatively short, Milk’s untimely death at the hand of Dan White, ensured that Harvey Milk would forever be held up as one of the most powerful and iconic men of politics the world has ever seen.

  • Six ways you can be a better non-binary ally

    Six ways you can be a better non-binary ally

    This morning I was on Twitter and I clicked on the #TransAwarenessWeek hashtag and I came across a very insightful tweet from a user, who gave some great tips.

    Not everything is binary… kerplode / Pixabay

    Let me tell you about my own gender expression before we go on. I don’t think of myself as a “man” because I don’t really fit into what society expects of its men. When I was a child all I wanted to do was be called a girl, wear high heels, my mum’s dresses and sing Petula Clark’s ‘Downtown’ on repeat. I was a Grade A queer/trans kid.

    Nowadays, I dress in masculine clothes, I have a boyfriend, I have short hair and people assume that I’m a man, and a gay one at that. I enjoy the privileges that, for the most part, that assumed identity affords me. But, it never really feels right when someone refers to me in that way.

    That said, I don’t mind if people use the pronouns him/his or he when they refer to me. Although it does jar me if someone calls me a man. Weird.

    I also don’t mind it if I’m referred to with female pronouns.

    I’m pretty relaxed about the pronouns that are used to describe me.

    But for some, words really matter. So here’s some advice to help us all become better allies to our non-binary, gender non-conforming siblings.

    Open your ears and mind

    via GIPHY

    It seems that we’ve all got our lives set to transmit only. We need more receiving in our lives. So when someone is telling you something about them, listen.

    Leave your assumptions at the door

    via GIPHY

    Someone once wisely told me, “Assumptions are the mother of all fuck-ups” – and they were completely right. How often have you assumed something about a situation only to find that nothing was as you imagined? Pretty often, right?

    Your assumptions are based on your own life experience. It doesn’t take into account other people’s experience. So leave your assumptions at the door and again, open your mind.

    Respect pronouns

    If a person tells you what their preferred pronoun is, accept it don’t fight it. It’s what they’ve asked you to call them. The decision is effectively out of your hands. It’s the same as when someone tells you their name. You accept it and it becomes part of their identity. Well, pronouns are the same.

    Accept that there are lots of different pronouns

    via GIPHY

    Some non-binary, gender fluid and gender non-conforming folks use a number of different pronouns. Some popular ones are: Zim/Zer and Ze, they/them and theirs or even thon, which was actually added to the dictionary in 1964. They as a singular pronoun has been used for centuries.

    It’s not particularly new, it’s not trend based, it’s just getting a lot of media attention at the moment.

    Stop normalising gender norms

    via GIPHY

    Blue for boys, Pink for girls… gender stereotyping is all so 1950s and really doesn’t work for today’s society. No one likes living in a predefined box and we don’t live in a black and white world. There’s a whole rainbow out there.

    Gender norms and stereotypes, when adhered to, just keeps society attached to a patriarchal system that’s almost impossible to climb and doesn’t work for all of us, particularly LGBT+ people. So lets bin it shall we?

    Write your own pronouns

    via GIPHY

    Normalise the conversation surrounding pronouns. Write your preferred pronouns in your social media profiles. As @thalestral says on Twitter, “normalise that shit”.

    Here’s what’s triggering Piers Morgan today

    Piers Morgan is raging at Snowmen being called Snowpeople.

    Someone, please adjust Piers Morgan‘s tie before he had a seizure. The Good Morning Britain presenter blasted a BBC presenter after she used the term “snowpeople” instead of “snowmen”.

    Morgan went on a tirade on Monday morning against Children’s TV presenter, 20-year-old Catie Munning, who was speaking on her CBeebies show, Catie’s Amazing Machines when she said, “snow is amazing. You get to build snowpeople and go sledging.”

    Piers Morgan, who has consistently railed against gender non-conformity ranted, “You don’t build snowpeople, you see, you build snowmen, we’ve been building snowmen for 10,000 years”.

    10,000 years? Could someone please fact check?

    No gender here. Snow figures don’t actually have any sex or gender characteristics… Free-Photos / Pixabay

    He went on,”We, part of mankind, humans, build snowmen, Catie, you seem a lovely lady, whoever you are. You’re 20 years old, you present CBeebies,”

    “They’re not snowpeople, they’re snowmen. Or as somebody put it here, one of the parents, ‘politically correct garbage.’”

    Calm down dear… Who knew snowflakes could get you so hot and bothered.

    Some guys, honestly.

    Okay, we get it, no one guy is perfect, but some of us take the soggy biscuit too far as evidenced in a recent thread on Reddit when some gay guys shared what the most annoying things guys did to them during sex.

    There was everything from checking phones during the act to sexy talk that just wasn’t that sexy.

    Boy Pussy. Apparently calling your butt hole a “boy pussy” or bussy, is a definite no-no.  [via]

    via GIPHY

    God’s gift? Acting like a jerk is never sexy, this one user said, “Acting like they’re a gift to you, not reciprocating in foreplay, pounding like a rabbit and busting in 2 minutes asking you if it was good” is also annoying. [via]

    via GIPHY

    Size isn’t everything… but apparently, if you’re not blessed with a huge package but repeatedly ask the question, “do you like my big cock” along with other references to how big you are, is annoying. But interestingly it works the other way around too. [via]

    If you’re not well-endowed and the bottom partner goes on and on about how big you are, is truly annoying. [via]

    (C) BIGSTOCK Can you handle my size???

    Look who’s talking “Talking too much. Either about sex or more annoyingly about something else entirely. I’m happy to chat before/after sex but I don’t wanna hear about your sister’s new boyfriend or that your dog is at the vets… stop.” [via]

    Noisey sexer, also: “Two days ago I had a guy snorting while he was fucking me. Like, making pig noises. No thanks” [via]

    Devil Kissing “Kissing me with a pointed tongue, it feels hard and not comfortable to rub my tongue across it, relax your tongue muscles!” [via]

    Also on the block is sloppy kissers… “Some men are all drool and it’s just a mess. I love French kissing, but not with someone who drools like a Bassett hound” [via]

    via GIPHY

    Play that tune… When you spend all that time creating a sex playlist on Spotify… DAMN YOU [via]

    Sunkissed Gradual Lotion

    Smells like holiday, tans like you’ve been on one too. Sunkissed is an inexpensive fake tan that gives a healthy bronzed glow in two to four hours. It’s packed with vitamin E and nourishing shea butter, so it’s easy to use this as a night cream – you can wake up looking refreshed and with a glowing visage. Perfect. Just £4.95 on Amazon

     

    St. Tropez

    No fake tan review would be complete without the ever-present St Tropez. The tanning system that revolutionised the fake tan. It was the first tanning lotion that actually gave you the colour of holiday and not the colour of several E numbers.

    There are several steps to the perfect St. Tropez tan, but let’s face it how many people actually use steps 1 and 2? My advice is stick to the moose and make sure you’re not flaky before applying.

    One of the problems is the drying time – which is lengthy, so I used to do it before I went to bed, usually to wake up with brownish stains on my bedding. Never attractive. Available from under £8 on Amazon.

    TESCO TAN

    I know what you’re thinking, the man’s gone mad, but bear with me! This was a little gem I found when I was a student all those years ago, back in the days when I was dancing and prancing. Cheap – check, tan colour – check, easy application – check. Streaks when sweating – surprisingly resistant!

    No tricks just old fashion slap it on fake tan. Tesco’s proves you don’t need to spend over £30 in order to get a good colour. In fact, you don’t need to spend a tenth of that! From all the tans I’ve ever ended up using – the Tesco own fake tan, was always the one that got me compliments – and as we know – every little helps.

    Don’t forget to use a fake tan mitt. It will keep your fingers from looking like carrots and will help create an even finish to the tan on your face. You’ll need to change the mitt every three to six months as it will start to disintegrate. Also, don’t forget to give it a rinse every so often to keep it clean.
