Subject: Andrew Sullivan, Overexposed

Like many a preacher and politician before him, Andrew Sullivan, the neoconservative
gay pundit, was caught with his pants down. The story goes like this: Some time ago,
Sullivan, who is HIV positive, took out an anonymous personal ad on a website called
Barebackcity.com, which advertises itself as the "one stop source for bareback [i.e.,
unprotected anal] sex." He listed himself under the screen name "RawMuscleGlutes,"
posted two headless photographs, and solicited bareback sex, preferably (although he did
not say only) with other HIV-positive men. He also indicated an interest in "bi-scenes,
one-on-ones, three-ways, groups, parties, orgies and gang bangs," but not in "fats and
fems." Sullivan's identity was discovered by other visitors to the site, possibly by someone
with whom he had a sexual encounter. The story simmered on gay Internet bulletin boards
before breaking last week in the pages of LGNY in an article written by Michelangelo
Signorile, the gay columnist who came to fame during the whole "outing" controversy a
decade ago and who has recently called upon health officials to shut down gay bath houses
to reduce unsafe sex. Sullivan confirmed the substance of Signorile's account in a response
he posted last Thursday to his own website (Andrewsullivan.com) titled "Sexual
McCarthyism: An Article No One Should Have to Write." Queers and leftists should pause before we nail Sullivan to his own cross
