Gay lip-locks

"But last night Marge Simpson cast threw caution to the wind when she enjoyed a lingering lesbian kiss with one of her friends.

The blue-bouffanted matriach, voiced by Julie Kavner, planted a smacker on her attractive friend's lips in the living room of her family home in Springfield while husband Homer looked on.

However, viewers should not worry that Marge is going to run off with her glamorous friend because it transpires that the smooch is all a figment of beer-swigging Homer's imagination.

The lardy father had been panicking about the disasters that could befall his family after his insurance expires but soon started day-dreaming about his wife locking lips with another woman.The show has been broaching lesbianism more over the last few years and revealed in 2005 that Marge's disapproving older sister Patty was a closet lesbian, who consequently gets engaged to a female golf player Veronica".

Sean Penn and James Franco kissing in the subway in "Milk".

"Fresh from his Best Actor Oscar win for portraying slain gay-rights leader Harvey Milk, Sean Penn joined politicians and activists in California on Tuesday to push for a day to honor the man he portrayed in Milk.

Harvey Milk Day on May 22 would not be a holiday, but teachers would recall how the San Francisco supervisor fought for equal rights before his assassination more than 30 years ago.

"It is important that we remember Harvey Milk for his spirit, his courage and his activism", Penn, dressed in black, told reporters gathered in San Francisco's Tosca Café, which shares the name of Milk's favorite opera. "Harvey taught us the importance of standing up for what you believe in. He showed us the value of never giving up, and he proved that action creates change."

Penn was joined by politicians and civil rights leaders, including gay-rights activist Cleve Jones (played in Milk by Emile Hirsch). He said that so many have been inspired by the story since Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger vetoed a similar proposal by state Sen. Mark Leno last September that the governor is unlikely to reject the measure a second time".
