A WALK IN LGBT SHOES





Poor Sean Avery. Our straight ally is getting a taste of what some LGBT folks have to face on a daily basis: homophobic bigotry.

Cowards hacked into his Wikipedia entry and placed "FAG BOY" in between his first and last name.

Wikipedia has fixed the corruption but unfortunately a Google search via screen capture still displays the homophobic slur.


"It's an unfortunate cached version of the page that got saved before the vandalism was detected and removed. However, as Wikipedia is among the top ranking sites in Google Search, it will be updated quite soon enough. It can take from a few hours to a few days, more likely the former. Try checking Google Search again tomorrow. Note that this issue is from Google and beyond the means of anyone here to fix. The actual wiki entry has already been fixed."


Avery has given his unwavering outspoken support for gays and the same-sex marriage equality rights.

And, he was a VOGUE intern. Les sigh.
