As Taiwan shelves its proposed legislation that would allow same-sex couples to be legally married; Hong Kong newlyweds Roddy Shaw and Nelson Ng are continuing their fight to have their marriage recognised after being married in Toronto, Canada two months ago.
In a television interview on Tuesday, US President George W. Bush reiterated his support for a federal definition of marriage as a solely between a man and a woman and that he could support a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage.
A study conducted by the New South Wales Attorney-General's department has shown that verbal abuse, threats, spitting and stalking are everyday experiences for gay men and lesbians in the Australian state famed for hosting the annual Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras.

Welcome to Fridae's monthly advice column where writer Alvin Tan lends a listening ear and dispenses his own unique brand of advice for those misguided gay men and women who need it oh-so-badly.
Taiwan gay activist tells Fridae that the move may be due to a potential backlash in the run-up to next year's presidential elections and quotes the government as saying that the proposed bill was "just a proposal, a plan, and not a reality." Tim Cribb reports.
As Taiwan seeks to become the first region in Asia to legalise same-sex marriages, Vice President Annette Lu has angered gay rights activists and politicians when she suggested that AIDS was God's punishment for homosexuality.
One of Australia's most senior Islamic clerics is under police investigation after receiving complaints that he incited members of his congregation to attack gays.
Southeast Asia's Anglicans have rejected the consecration of homosexual Bishop Gene Robinson, joining a conservative backlash in the Church and announcing they have "broken communion" with the Episcopal Church in the United States of America (ECUSA).
Fridae's resident expert on outrageous sexual behavior, Alvin Tan, explores the issue of sex with a couple and offers some rules of conduct when engaging in a threesome with a twosome.

Looking for a boyfriend, possibly a life partner. Applications welcome. I'm someone who believes in clearly expressing your charm. I know what I want. I enjoy mornings that start with espresso and conversations with substance. I'm looking for an ambitious and kind man, confident but not arrogant, witty but not one who turns every date into an open mic night. But at least Wi-Fi, mature in all aspects of relationships, and able to cook a real meal. I'm not looking for perfection—just honesty, curiosity, and a willingness to eat. In return, I offer loyalty, a humor, and genuine listening skills—plus someone who actually reads your messages, not just the first line. Serious applicants only. Passion is required. Tax returns are not mandatory.
