LOVE, VICTOR STARS MICHAEL CIMINO AND GEORGE SEAR ON WHY THEIR LGBTQ ALLYSHIP IS NO ACT For many of us, a highschool romance with our homo-leaning crush was damn near impossible, while watching it depicted on TV was unheard of. Thankfully, today’s youth have the groundbreaking — and really rather good — drama Love, Victor to relate to. Even older viewers may find themselves enthralled (and maybe even misty-eyed) by this coming-of-age series. As the show returns for its second season, stars Michael Cimino and George Sear reflect in the Attitude Summer issue about the homophobia from those close to them they've been forced to challenge, the blowback - and even death threats - they've received from a minority in the LGBTQ community as straight men in playing high-profile gay roles, and why neither extreme has ever made them question their position as ferocious LGBTQ allies. BUY NOW HUNGARY PASSES 'GAY PROPAGANDA BILL' IN 'DARK DAY FOR LGBTI RIGHTS' Hungary's parliament yesterday passed new legislation banning content about homosexuality and gender change in schools. The new law, proposed by the ultra-conservative and ruling Fidesz party last Thursday (10 June) and debated yesterday, amends an existing law punishing pedophilia. It is similar to the still-active 2013 Russian federal law "for the Purpose of Protecting Children from Information Advocating for a Denial of Traditional Family Values", which effectively bans positive representation of LGBTQ life to minors.
