TOP
TEN HISTORIC MALE COUPLES OF ALL TIME
From
the sublime and glamorous to the comic and tragic:
with LGBT History Month upon us, and Valentine's
looming, Adrian Gillan counts down the Top Ten Famous
Historic Gay Male Couples of All Time…
1. Alexander the Great (general 356-323BC) &
Hephaistion (confidant and lover 356-323BC) –
Alexander had to be pulled off his dead lover’s
corpse; shaved his head; and threw a mega funeral!
2. Julius Caesar (emperor, 100-44BC) & Nicomedes
(King of Bithynia, died 74BC) – Nicomedes
was referred to as Caesar’s “Queen”
by political rivals!
4. Oscar Wilde (writer and wit, 1854-1900) &
Lord Alfred Douglas a.k.a. “Bosie” (poet
and aristocrat, 1870-1945) – perhaps the most
infamous gay affair in history! ...more...

GIANNI
VERSACE : GAY ICON
Versace
liked using stunning male models in his advertising
often featuring homoerotic images. His coffee-table
book Men Without Ties looked back over his male
fashion and celebrated male beauty.
As a world-famous designer he knew everyone,
the photographers Bruce Weber and Richard Avedon,
the designers Karl Lagerfeld and Jean-Paul Gaultier,
his celebrity fans Sly Stallone and Bruce Springsteen,
and notably Elton John and Diana, Princess of
Wales both famously in tears at his funeral after
his murder in July 1997. Versace had been shot
dead on the steps of his Miami Beach mansion by
a deranged young man, Andrew Cunanan, who was
already being hunted by the police for a series
of murders. Cunanan committed suicide using the

SPENCER:THE SECRETARIAL DIARIES
Edited
Highlights !!! Adrian Gillan
Opt
to burn up a bit more of my recently boosted annual
holiday credit – still quite a lot to work
through – by dusting off my thermals and jetting
off for the week to famous Mount Whistler in British
Columbia, Canada, for WinterPride: arguably North
America’s, nay the world’s, indisputably
premier queer wintry party on the white stuff! Join
over 4,000 gays, enjoying world-class skiing and
snowboarding on perfect powder snow, luxurious hotel
accommodation and a week tightly ice-packed with
dozens of events, parties and other fun activities,
some of which – like daily guided group ski
tours to suit all skills – are absolutely
free.
