SOCIAL NETWORKING WEBSITE FOR LGBTQI COMMUNITY LAUNCHES
HomoSexualsOnly.com
TOLEDO - A new website devoted to the social, political, cultural and spiritual networking needs of the LGBTQI Community has made it's debut online. Though the name HomosexualsOnly.com sounds exclusive, it's open to all genders and persuasions in hopes of bringing a sense of unity and "family" to a community where diversity often leads to isolation.

Created as a reaction to conservative propaganda in recent marriage equality debates, HomosexualsOnly.com creator William "Jake" Jacobs bought the URL initially as an act of online civil disobedience. "People used religion against interracial marriage and women's rights. Now they use these excuses to deny equal rights to homosexuals out of fear. So I registered this domain to avoid it falling into the hands of bigots," said Jacobs.

Upon later reflection, Jacobs noticed a lack of intercommunication vehicles for gay people, especially gay men, on topics other than dating and hooking up. "There are plenty of sites to help you pick up a trick, but when we need to rally the troops for a political action or give advice to kid coming out, where do you go?", queried Jacobs. "The right wing Christians have the pulpit at their tax-exempt meeting places every Sunday to spread their political messages, but where is our equivalent meeting place?"

Rather than be called "Admin" on all of my pages, I opened a second account here at Homosexualsonly.com so people get to know me by my real name, or my screen name of Jake or Jake46a. 

I am a 50 year old gay male living in Toledo, OH; or better known as "Hell" to some.  Not exactly the booming area of the country right now, but with the current economy, what area is booming?

I actually purchased this domain back in April, and the story behind it is in this blog post. Why Did HomoSexualsOnly.com come about?. Please take the time to read it.  I want everyone to feel at home here, no matter what your sexual orientation is.  This is not a hookup site by no means.  If that is what you are looking for then just goolge, "gay hookup sites".

My main source of income is web design and technical support for Joomla and Joomla 3rd party components. I do however have a few other sites, some of which are porn site.  Maybe some day I will blog on how I "acquired those".

But for now I would just like to welcome everyone to this new site, please take the time to look it over and start blogging or creating a discussion group.

If you have any suggestions for the site, plese use the Contact Us link in the top menu.  Once again, thanks for visiting the site.

What is HomoSexualsOnly.com?

On the morning of April 10, 2009, my boss from Germany sends me a link in my instant messenger to a link Fake People Tell Fake Stories About The Threat Of Gay Marriage. I go there to see this video.

“On Wednesday, the day after the vote in Vermont, the National Organization for Marriage -- a group opposed to same-sex marriage -- launched a new ad campaign that could be a preview of the strategy to come.”

“I don't know if the people are fake or not [UPDATE: They are actors], but they are assholes. One woman whines plaintively, "My freedom will be taken away," if gays are allowed to marry. What -- her freedom to be intolerant? “

Then of course some spoof videos were posted.

Now as I read this post, I came across this posted comment: “Registered 'heterosexualsonly.com' and hope to have a site up and running by Monday with representative contacts, resources and whatever else I can provide.”

With that, I logged into GoDaddy and registered the domain, HomoSexaulsOnly.com. I said to myself, if someone can register and create a site for heterosexuals only then I will do it for homosexuals. Later I realized when I visited his site, that his intentions were the opposite. “This site was registered and taken as a protest to those who would deny rights to homosexuals. This point of view that marriage is for 'heterosexuals only' is nothing more than modern day bigotry that has been preached over and over since the beginning of time.

People used religion to say the same things against interracial marriage and women wanting the right to vote. Now they use these excuses to deny equal rights to homosexuals out of fear. So I registered this domain to avoid it falling into the hands of bigots. Forgive me for not doing more with it as my life is busy.”
