Cast of 'Wicked' hosts cabaret for gay rights

Lots of people are up in arms about the passing of California's Proposition 8, and the cast of “Wicked” is no exception.

Next Monday,  performers from the four North American  companies of the Broadway musical will host “Defying Inequality,” an evening of cabaret performances benefiting four nonprofits that promote civil rights for gays.

The one-night only event will take place in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and Louisville.

So, why “Wicked”? Well, one of the prevailing themes of the musical is acceptance, and that’s what the gay community is after too. Get more info on the Los Angeles event.

According to the investigation from the site *BiLoves dotcom* (a site for LGBT comning out,
explore sexuality, etc.), The Netherlands, South Africa, United Kingdom, Canada, Spain are
the gayest countries. Not sure if true.I just know that site is very professional and there are about 100 members per day and they are very active. You can imagine.If you come here frequently, you may find what you are looking easily and quickly.
