Generating all sorts of chatter on the Internet today is an unsigned letter from someone who is sick of the proliferation of letters from Gl to Glb to Glbt to Glbtqiaop. Fortunately, I don’t have to pick this apart, because Alex Blaze did it for me at The Bilerico Project. Side note: Gay.com still exists?

Wes (Partner of Danny Roberts)

The Real World: New Orleans’ Danny Roberts(who recently topped our Top 15 Favorite Gay Reality Stars poll) first met his partner Wes in college at the University of Georgia. They were both closeted, so their brief affair was hush-hush.

“Fast forward 10 years and I’m living in New York City and out with friends for my birthday,” Danny tells AfterElton.com. “Guess who approaches me and asks if I remember him? Yep, there’s Wes.
