AfterElton Briefs: Proud penguin parents, "TV's Gay Friend Obsession", and more!

Except it has a Don't Ask Don't tell policy. 7 states recognized same sex penguins. And in California only certain same sex penguins are legal and most are not.

"I'll bet you would."

I'm sure Maggie Gallagher has already called the zoo to complain about their violating the baby penguin chick's right to mother and father...

I'm sure someone on AE will eventually get around to mentioning the death of David Carradine (or did I miss it?).  Why should anyone care?  David played father to Chris (QAF) Potter for five years on "Kung Fu: The Legend Continues."  He was part of a versatile acting family: Keith and Robert have both played gay, and their father, John, was featured in several of the campiest movies ever made (he delived the "It won't grow back" line in "Myra Breckenridge," and his participation in "Billy the Kid versus Dracula" needs no further comment).  The story on David's death is that he died while performing auto-erotic asphyxiation.  If so, that's a shame.  I lived in Bangkok, where Carradine died, for two years, and I know from experience that that's where the stars go to get kinky.  David Carradine was a unique presence on the screen, and he'll be missed.

"The mountain has wings."

So adorable! The penguin couple are raising a baby from an abandoned egg. How selfless!

And apparently, this penguin couple is "one of three same-sex pairs among the zoo's 20 Humboldt penguins that have attempted to mate."

And "the zoo said in a statement on its website that "sex and coupling in our world don't always have something to do with reproduction.""

Plus, NPH rules! :)

I bet Maggie Gallagher had a gay husband who dumped her for a man.

i read this news in my local chinese newspaper and i really surprise that in zoo of Germany has this gay penguin couple and they become dad.how amazing things happen in this world.(honestly i really really surprise that there are really have a gay animals in the world.)  

But in this case, will let it slide becuase this guy is gorgeious!!!!  The only thing I can say is that you can't see up the short far enough.... LOL!

haha, i was on huffingtonpost and someone (probably a troll or whatever) wrote "why would the penguins choose a gay lifestyle?"

 

i really think stupidity is medicine. :-P

America's NPH is charming and funny as always. 

Those papas are threatining to warm my cynical heart. Thank God for the likes of Maggie Gallagher keeping my soul grounded. 

People that actually whistle while they work deserve what they get.

Something tells me that's not his real name.

He's adorkable.
