Maximillian Harden

1907-On 23 October 1907 the case of Moltke v. Harden opened in

Kuno Von Moltke

a Berlin court. It was the first of six highly publicized trials known collectively as 'the Eulenberg Affair. Maximillian Harden accused General Kuno Count von Moltke of being in a homosexual relationship. Moltke filed a civil suit on this day. The affair centered on journalist Maximilian Harden's accusations of homosexual conduct between Philipp, Prince of Eulenburg-Hertefeld, and General Kuno, Graf von Moltke. Eulenburg was a close friend of the German Emperor, Wilhelm II, who was twelve years his junior, prior to Wilhelm’s accession to the imperial throne. Upon the accession of Wilhelm to the thrones of Prussia and Germany, Eulenburg assumed an unofficial position of immense influence, and among other things, was instrumental in the appointment of Bernhard von Bülow as head of the foreign office in 1897. Wilhelm II had

Phillipp Eulenberg

long desired the appointment of "his own Bismarck" - a powerful chancellor who would enact the Kaiser's will - and Eulenburg was the first to suggest Bülow for this role. Although he was married, Eulenburg was connected in homosexual liaisons with members of the Kaiser’s inner circle, including Count Kuno von Moltke, the military commander of Berlin. Sources say that he continued to have homosexual relationships even after the marriage. Accusations and counter-accusations quickly multiplied, and the phrase "Liebenberg Round Table" came to be used for the homosexual circle around the Kaiser. The affair received wide publicity and is often considered the biggest domestic scandal of the German Second Empire. in

Kaiser Wilhelm II

November 1908, Kaiser Wilhelm II began a vacation at an aristocrat's estate in the Black Forest. One evening after dinner, chief of the Military Secretariat Dietrich von Hülsen-Haeseler was performing a pas seul (dance of one person) dressed in a woman's ballet tutu when his heart failed and he died. Ottokar von Czernin, also in attendance, remarked, "In Wilhelm II, I saw a man who, for the first time in his life, with horror-stricken eyes, looked upon the world as it really was." Despite the Emperor's fears, the incident, with its implications of homosexuality at high levels, seemed successfully hushed up. However between 1906 and 1907, six military officers committed suicide after being blackmail for homosexual acts, while in the preceding three years, around twenty officers were convicted by courts-martial, all for their homosexual acts. Wilhelm II, informed of the growing story, responded by requiring the resignation of three

Bernard Bulow

of fifteen prominent aristocrats, Hohenau, Lynar, and Moltke, listed as homosexual by the Berlin vice squad; however, the actual list, not shown to Wilhelm II, contained several hundred names. Moltke's lawyer attempted to file criminal libel against Harden, but was dismissed and civil libel was suggested. Eulenburg denied any culpability and presented a self-accusation of violating the applicable Paragraph 175 to his district attorney who, as hoped and expected, cleared Eulenburg of all charges in July. Meanwhile Bernhard Prince von Bülow, imperial chancellor, were accused of or revealed as having homosexual tendencies or engaging in homosexual

Magnus Hirshfeld

activities. Testifying against Moltke were his former wife of nine years, Lili von Elbe, a soldier named Bollhardt, and the famous sexologist Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld. Elbe described the lack of conjugal relations, happening only on the first and second night of their marriage, Moltke's overly close friendship with Eulenburg, and her ignorance of homosexuality. Hirschfeld, based on von Elbe's comments and his courtroom observation of Moltke, testified that Moltke most certainly had a feminine side and was homosexual even if he had never committed sodomy. On October 29, the court found Moltke homosexual and Harden innocent. However, the trial was voided on procedural grounds, and the state prosecutor decided to allow a criminal libel trial. Elbe, through a diagnosis of classical hysteria, and Hirschfeld, by retracting his earlier testimony, were discredited and Harden was convicted of libel and sentenced to four months imprisonment. It is felt by historians without Eulenburg's moderate views, Kaiser Wilhelm stumbled into World War I.

1914 Bert Downie [Downey]  age 14 of Salt Lake City filed a complaint against Frank Thompson charging him with assault with intent to commit the “infamous crime against nature” upon Downie, “who was then and there a male person”. The following year at the age of 15 Downie is arrested with two other teenage boys for stealing over 35 automobile is Salt Lake City. Downie arrested . At the age of 17 he and other boys were arrested for a crime spree of stealing cars and breaking into businesses.

1937-Mattachine Society founder Harry Hay's former lover Stanley Haggart wrote to him after marrying a woman in an attempt to change his sexuality, "To think it had to take a marriage with its wedding night experiences to show me where my real affinity lies.

Stanley Haggart had a relationship with actor Randolph Scott before Scott broke it off to move in with Cary Grant.

• October 23, 1937 You know me well enough to know that I will go to any lengths if I feel I am right – if I feel I have something to do. A few weeks ago my latest effort was to marry Phyllis Ward. Does that shock you to know this – and that I am now crossing the Atlantic with her – married to her? My awakening has been horrible and the agony had been almost more than I can bear. To go back a bit, I got your letter 2 days before the ceremony. Your letter has struck deep down into the very depths of me – has cut through all pretenses . . . . To think it had to take a marriage with its wedding night experience to show me where my real affinity lies. Every cell in me screamed out in protest at my desecration of my body. At that time I knew that I belonged to you and you to me. . . . I need your help in straightening this mess out. And it is a mess – frightful. Phyllis loves me terribly and is such a fine girl. I told her yesterday of my feelings for you and she realizes from my behavior that a part of me which she had wanted for herself belonged to you. Our marriage was and is a perfect set-up . . . wrong in every way. The reason is that I belong with you, and you with me. Neither of us seems able to help it. Goodness knows I have done everything possible to keep us apart. Why? I don't know. But I'm trembling now over the thought of being with you soon. [Stanley explained that the marriage had been encouraged by a doctor in England who counselled the couple.] . . . He wanted to know whether I was homosexual through birth or if it was acquired. Phyllis (not her fault) made me decide that I could be ‘normal’ and he urged our marriage. Just because of this lack of truth, this mess has come about. [Stanley worried about his and Harry's prospects as a couple.] . . . I know the difficulties in our way if we go onwards together. I will have none of my present life to back me up – all will desert me. My life with you would have to be enough so that I would not care – would willingly abandon everything for you. But my darling I have that sweet certainty that if we were close enough together nothing else would count.

Hansen benefitted from the group as well. It couldn't be conservative icon and former Republican Sen. Barry Goldwater, who serves as a chairman of one of those "radical homosexual special interests" about which Hansen wrote. Goldwater enthusiastically and publicly defends his homosexual family members from the kind of attack in which Hansen is now engaging. Hansen may want to re-think his campaign tactics. He might not be as supportive of bisexual, gay and lesbian Utahns as his opponent, but neither is he as supportive as some of the most conservative Republican and military leaders in the United States - his friends and supporters.

• Closeted Anti-Gay Activist Terry Dolan Dies of AIDS: 1986. Terry Dolan, who helped to found the National Conservative Political Action Committee, was pretty well known in elite gay circles. According to Randy Schilts’s And the Band Played On, when playwright Larry Kramer recognized him at a Washington, D.C. cocktail party, he walked up to Dolan and threw a drink is his face. “How dare you come here?” he shouted. “You take the best from our world and then do all those hateful things against us. You should be ashamed.” Among those awful things was sending out fundraising letters for NCPAC, which claimed that “Our nation’s moral fiber is being weakened by the growing homosexual movement and the fanatical E.R.A. pushers (many of whom publicly brag they are lesbians).” Meanwhile, Dolan had, at the time of that 1984 encounter with Kramer, had just ended an affair with a male epidemiologist at the New York City Health Department, and was then enjoying everything the gay social scene had to offer.

Merrill Cook

23 October 1996 Deseret News Archives, Wednesday, October 23, 1996 GAY ISSUE HELPS COOK, MAY HURT ANDERSON  By Bob Bernick Jr., Political Editor  Merrill Cook clearly believes he's found an issue with which he can hurt Ross Anderson - homosexual nuptials. Cook, the GOP candidate in the 2nd District, has been running a TV ad the past week or so that shows Anderson, his Democratic opponent, voting "yes" for same-sex marriages, Cook voting "no." Cook takes every opportunity available in debates to mention Anderson's stands on same-sex marriages. The tactic may be working. Over the past six weeks, an Oct. 7 Deseret News/KSL polled showed, Anderson closed a 20-point lead by Cook to just under 10 points. But, say several Republicans watching GOP tracking polls, that movement has stopped, perhaps even reversed itself after Cook started running the new TV ads. In addition to the TV ads, a week ago an anonymous flier appeared around town saying gays and lesbians have a candidate they can like in Anderson. The flier was signed by a made-up gay and lesbian group that doesn't exist. Anderson said the flier was "hate-mongering" at its worst. Cook said he had nothing to do with the flier, and Anderson accepts that denial. Cook's ads, the flier and general talk about what Anderson calls "a hot-button" topic keeps same-sex marriages on the front political burner. At a Salt Lake Rotary Club debate Tuesday, the moderator's first question was on same-sex marriages. After joking about picking that subject, Anderson went on to say that same-sex marriage just isn't a congressional issue. And Cook keeps bringing it up just to be divisive and play to some people's prejudices, said Anderson. Anderson said that as a principle, all Americans believe in equal rights for all people, regardless of race, gender or sexual orientation. How that applies to the institution of marriage "is another question." Said Anderson: "I do believe that we as a nation, as a people, as a community ought to do what we can to recognize those who have differences in terms of sexual orientation and try to make things a little easier (for them). (The state should) provide, if we call it domestic partnerships, it doesn't have to be called marriage, but at least provide a legal recognition and dignity in our community for the relationships they choose to enter into." Anderson said that all Americans, regardless of sexual orientation, want the same basic things of life, one being to share a close relationship with another person. "I think that should be encouraged, not discouraged. "I don't understand why that has become a mainstay of my opponent's campaign. Because it is not a federal issue," said Anderson. But Cook sees political pay dirt here. Polling by the Deseret News and KSL-TV shows that about 60 percent of 2nd District residents say they are members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The LDS Church has taken a moral stand against same-sex marriages and has joined a lawsuit in Hawaii seeking to stop the recognition of same-sex marriages in that state. In March 1995, long before Anderson announced his candidacy or spoke out on same-sex marriages, a Deseret News/KSL poll conducted by Dan Jones & Associates found that in the 2nd District, 58 percent of residents opposed legalizing same-sex marriages, 37 percent favored such legalization and 6 percent didn't know. After winning the Democratic primary, Anderson said that while he believes in equality under the law,

Rocky Anderson

if a same-sex marriage bill comes up for a vote in Congress, he'd poll the 2nd District and vote as citizens wish. But he added that he won't support a bill he believes is unconstitutional, even if citizens support it. Cook told Rotarians on Tuesday that he would have voted for the Defense of Marriage Act, which Anderson opposed. The bill passed Congress and was signed by President Clinton. Cook said he'd always vote against "the legalization of same-sex marriages." "I think it is an issue," said Cook. Especially when Anderson "was one of only two politicians in the state to march in a gay-rights parade this year," he said. "We ought to have somebody in Congress who fundamentally believes the way I do" on same-sex marriages. "We need (someone in Congress) who will vote in a way that will provide support for families, because we all know that families are breaking apart in this country. We need to support pro-family legislation," said Cook. He added that he would never personally - and doesn't think anyone else should - discriminate against anyone for any reason. Anderson said he did march "very proudly" in a local Gay Pride Day parade "to show that there are people in this community who will stand up for those in our community and their families who are gay or lesbian. They're a large part of our community. He (Cook) likes to talk a lot about family values. But I can tell you there are lots of families that are very upset because of the way this issue is being used for supposed political gain. I don't think (such political tactics) work in our community," said Anderson.  © 1999 Deseret News Publishing Co.

Kim Duffin

23 October 1997  One man's illness and frustrations were the impetus behind a recently published booklet: Living With HIV/AIDS: A Guide to Planning for the Future and Understanding Your Rights.   The booklet is the brainchild of Kim Duffin, assistant director of the Salt Lake City Arts Council. Duffin, diagnosed with AIDS nine years ago, ``was concerned with the details one needs to address in the situation of having a terminal illness.''   The guide explains a range of issues – estate planning, emotional health, financial and legal matters -- that they and their caregivers are likely to encounter during the course of their lives.   ``I had done some checking with various agencies on these issues and ended up having more questions than answers,'' said Duffin, who remains in relative good health. ``I thought if I was having trouble with this amount of information as a healthy person, it would be overwhelming for a person who is not well.''   Duffin asked the Utah AIDS Foundation for help and, almost simultaneously, learned the Disability Law Center was interested in a similar project. ``We had had a lot of people [with HIV/AIDS] contacting us about all different kinds of issues,'' said Eric Mitchell, training and publications specialist for the Disability Law Center. ``Most centered on planning and understanding one's rights and asserting them.''   Rebecca Sanchez, of Viaticus Inc., an insurance firm that pays viatical settlements --before a person dies -- also joined the all-volunteer project.   The booklet was condensed from its original form.   ``We realized that the amount of information was overwhelming. We didn't want it to become something people weren't interested in reading,'' said Duffin. ``On the other hand, we didn't want to dumb it down either.''   The finished product is divided into nine chapters including ``Planning Ahead,'' ``Self Advocacy,'' ``Legal Protections,'' ``Entitlement Programs'' ``Bibliography'' and a ``Community Resource Directory.''   The resource guide, the first of its kind in the state, is Utah-specific and contains information on such things as transportation, benefits advocacy, emergency housing, food and utilities assistance, food banks and substance abuse centers.   ``We wanted to provide local information in a nonthreatening, accessible way,'' said Duffin. ``It is an ongoing guide. It is not meant to be read allat once.''   Duffin remembers a particularly painful moment for him. Six years ago, at a dental appointment, he notice the periodontist was not wearing protective gloves.   ``I told him he needed to be protected, and as soon as I said that, I was told `this office cannot provide services for you.' I was out the door in15 minutes. . . .   ``The impetus for the resource guide was from my own experience: To let people know where they can be treated like a human being,'' said Duffin. ``There still is prejudice [against the disease].''   The chapter on discrimination covers such topics as employment, housing, education, confidentiality and public accommodations. ``There are things people need to be aware of in terms of legal regulations, such as what questions a landlord can or cannot ask,'' said Duffin.   A chapter Duffin finds essential is that of ``self-advocacy.''   Compiled primarily by Mitchell, the chapter encourages people with HIV/AIDS to keep records and to communicate.   ``Often times, because [AIDS] is such an emotional issue, someone may react aggressively in an area they have concern,'' said Duffin.   Utah AIDS physician Kristen Ries proved invaluable for the chapter dealing with living wills. ``With the input of Dr. Ries, we came to the conclusion that, whether you have a living will or not, the issue of being able to communicate with your significant others and doctor throughout the process is the most guaranteed way of having your wishes met,'' said Duffin. While the booklet focuses on those with HIV/AIDS, certain aspects apply to anyone with a terminal illness. Mitchell said the book could also prove valuable to caregivers and health-care workers.   Living with HIV/AIDS: A Guide to Planning for the Future and Understanding Your Rights is free and will be distributed at the People With AIDS Coalition of Utah's Living With AIDS Conference, ``Living Beyond,'' Saturday and Sunday.   It is also available at the Utah AIDS Foundation or by calling the Disability Law Center, 800-662-9080.  Conference In conjunction with AIDS Awareness Month, the People With AIDS Coalition of Utah will present its ninth annual ``Living With AIDS Conference, ``Living Beyond,'' at Westminster College of Salt Lake, Gore School of Business Auditorium, 1840 S. 1300 East, Saturday and Sunday. Registration is from 8 to 9 a.m. daily.   Registration fee for the conference, open to the public, is $25. Scholarships are available for people with HIV/AIDS.

Dr. Kristen Ries

2003 Salt Lake City summit on gay men's health looks beyond HIV/AIDS The Associated Press Tuesday, October 21, 2003 SALT LAKE CITY -- For so long, discussing the health of gay men meant one topic: AIDS. That was not the case during a summit last weekend on gay men's health issues, sponsored by the Utah AIDS Foundation, Planned Parenthood and members of the gay community. The goal was "to expand the notion of gay men's health beyond HIV," one of the coordinators, David Ferguson, said. "For about 20 years, gay men's health has been equated with a person's HIV status. We're not minimizing HIV, but gay men deal with lots of issues: relationships, spirituality, substance abuse," he said. About 160 people attended the summit, up from 100 over the past two years. Topics addressed by speakers included aging and HIV, fitness, substance abuse, and self-hypnosis. Kristen Ries, an infectious disease physician at the University of Utah Health Sciences Center, touched on other health issues that affect homosexuals during her keynote address. Gay men, for example, use drugs, alcohol and tobacco at a higher rate than the general population and also have a higher incidence of anxiety, suicide and depression. "I understand how that comes about when you think about their childhood," Ries said in regard to the difficulty of coming out and dealing with homophobia. The summit was meant to address the total man, and HIV was not ignored. Ries said she is deeply concerned about the increase of HIV-positive gay men. In 2002, 151 men tested positive for HIV at the clinic. This year, the same number of men tested positive by the end of July. According to the Utah Department of Health, about 1,780 people were living with HIV or AIDS in Utah, as of 2001. This story appeared in The Daily Herald on page B3.

2003 Two 16-year-old Salt Lake City boys sustained minor injuries Wednesday morning when the car they were in crashed into a building, police said. Skid marks stretched for more than 100 feet in front of the Utah AIDS Foundation building, 1408 S. 1100 East, as the driver tried to stop after traveling down residential Browning Avenue. Investigators say the car reached speeds of more than 70 mph. The car -- which belonged to the mother of the driver -- was launched airborne on the entrance to the foundation's driveway, which drops to a throughway under the building. The roof of the car was flattened as the car collided with the underside of the building. The minimal damage to the building did not affect operations at the office, according to Stan Penfold, Utah AIDS Foundation executive director. The teens were cited for reckless behavior, treated for burns from the airbags and taken back to school.

2004 DESERET MORNING NEWS  October 23, 2004 Gays' offspring do fine, expert says Support group hears findings at S.L. convention By Elaine Jarvik The research - all the research - shows that the children of gay and lesbian parents turn out fine, says sociologist Judith Stacey. Stacey, the co-author of a controversial mega-analysis of gay parenting research, spoke Friday to the national convention of PFLAG (Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays), which is meeting this weekend at the Little America Hotel. "It's amazingly brave and impressive of you to be holding your national conference in this place at this time," Stacey told the 400 attendees, referring to Utah's pending vote on a state amendment to outlaw same-sex marriages. "There's no disagreement . . . that the quality of the parenting is at least as good" by same-sex parents as heterosexual parents, says Stacey, a professor at New York University. Opponents have to turn not to research but to "ideologues," she says, to shore up their case. "They've never been able to say there's any harm done. It's only lies, more lies and the lying liars who tell them." Yes, some of the research indicates that the children of same-sex parents are different than children raised by heterosexual parents, Stacey reports. "But differences aren't problems." One of those differences, she says, is that a "larger minority" of children raised by gay and lesbian parents "will not turn out to be heterosexual." This is the finding, she admits, that made her analysis "incendiary," but it's a finding that doesn't need apologizing for, she says. What it means, she says, is that these children "will have freer opportunities to come to understand their desires and act on them, and that this is a good thing." This is exactly the kind of finding that upsets people like Dr. Bill Maier, a child and family psychologist who is vice president of Focus on Family, based in Colorado Springs, Colo. Maier, contacted by phone on Friday, says he commends Stacey for being willing to say "these kids are not the same," but doesn't agree with her conclusions. PFLAG, he argues, started as a support group for families of gay and lesbian children "but has been co-opted by the gay lobby. . . . My impression is that PFLAG is more interested in attaining their radical political goals than examining the research on homosexuality and what is best for human beings, both children and adults." Stacey was joined Friday by two sets of same-sex parents. Anthony Butterfield and Paul Redd-Butterfield are the parents of 2-year-old twins Lucas and Liam. Chris Johnson and Lorie Hutchinson are the parents of 12-year-old Olivia. "This is not a social experiment, this is our family," said Butterfield, who along with his partner is part of a group of about 50 same-sex parents who have activities once a month, most recently a Halloween party. "Radical gay agenda stuff," he added with a smile. In a question-and-answer session after the panel discussion, Butterfield was asked whether he and his partner act as two fathers or "mother" and father. What his own mother does when she mothers "is not a function of her being a woman," he answered. "If our child falls down, it's not like we both say 'Get up!' We can 'mother.' " Butterfield and Redd-Butterfield became parents via an egg donor and a separate surrogate mother. Sociologist Stacey noted that she recently attended a christening of surrogacy twins at a Catholic church in California. The older sister of these twins explained to her playmates that surrogacy is "when your mommy has a baby for two men." "And the sky didn't fall," Butterfield interjected. PFLAG did not choose Salt Lake City for its national convention this year to coincide with the debate over Amendment 3, says PFLAG interim executive director Ron Schlittler of Washington, D.C. "It just worked out that way." "All these people didn't come to this as radical liberals," he said about the parents who filled the hotel ballroom.

2004 SALT LAKE TRIBUNE 'We are going to win,' gay-rights leaders declare at rally Marriage issue: A national convention of supporters of gays gathers in SLC By Kirsten Stewart  The Salt Lake Tribune  Leaders of the gay rights movement on Friday shared inspiring stories from the front lines of the culture wars at the national conference of Parents, Friends and Families of Lesbians and Gays. They sought to reassure families, who may feel like they're losing ground in the fight to legalize same-sex marriage, that 10 years from now they will be on the right side of history.  "When you're in the midst of a movement it can be hard to feel the movement," said panelist Kate Kendall, director of the National Center for Lesbian Rights in San Francisco. "But we are

moving and we are going to win." About 400 people piled into main ballroom at Salt Lake City's Little America Hotel for the discussion, which was interrupted several times by applause and a standing ovation for longtime lesbian activists Phyllis Lyon, 79, and Del Martin, 83, of San Francisco - the nation's first same-sex couple to be legally wed.     Kendall, who was raised Mormon in Ogden, said "it's disappointing" to return home at a time when Utah and 10 other states are considering constitutional amendments that would block recognition of gay marriage. But she takes heart in other victories.   From a Massachusetts Supreme Court ruling upholding gay and lesbian unions as constitutional, to same-sex nuptials performed in San Francisco, Kendall traced the beginnings of this country's next "great civil rights movement."  She said the photographs broadcast worldwide of the San Francisco weddings "have forever changed the nature of this discourse in this country. No one can think of this as an abstraction after seeing their children, brothers and sisters standing in line for hours to be married, something any other couple in this country can take for granted."  There has since been a backlash as legislators have rushed to preempt such weddings in other states. But "while we're the focus of attacks," said Kendall, "this is part of a broad strategy by the conservative right to roll back other civil rights. Immigration, reproductive rights and affirmative action will be next." Freedom to Marry founder Evan Wolfson likened the Massachusetts court ruling to the landmark U.S. Supreme Court Brown v. Board of Education decision to desegregate schools. "People today see that as a luminous moment when our nation did something right. But when it came down, it wasn't greeted with unanimous applause," said Wolfson, recalling the lynchings, freedom rides and political manifestos denouncing the "so-called activist judges" that followed. "We are on that human rights battlefield again," said Wolfson, who believes it's only a matter of time before Americans opposed to gay marriage come around. The drafters of Utah's Amendment 3 represent Americans who are "adamantly against, not just gay marriage, but gay people," said Wolfson. "They could have stopped at sentence one, but couldn't help themselves. What they really want to do is drive gay people out of the public sphere completely." But Wolfson believes that in addition to the third of Americans for gay marriage, there is another third avoiding the debate, but who will eventually "catch the wave" and "join us on the right side of history."

2005 Homosexuality a 'lifestyle,' not a fleeting interest Daily Herald Sunday, October 23, 2005 Editor's note: The Daily Herald asked readers if a gay-straight alliance should be approved at Provo High School. Here are the comments we received: 

• Homosexuality a 'lifestyle,' not a fleeting interest -Comparing homosexual clubs to any of the other types of clubs that you mention is like comparing apples and oranges. By their own claims, homosexuals are born that way and cannot change their sexual lifestyle, no matter what. Therefore their lifestyle interests and desires will always be there and they will always want to gather with others like themselves. The other clubs have members who may outgrow their interests and will get on with their lives and other interests. Homosexuality cannot and will not join the "shifting sands of student interest" you speak of, nor will the club. Gary Macomber, Salem-
• Provo residents must stand up, speak out against club People voicing their opinion can make a difference. When the definition of family was challenged, the first-ever Mayday for Marriage rally on Oct. 15, 2004, organized by Ken Hutcherson, an African-American pastor from Seattle, drew a crowd from across the country of an estimated 140,000 to Washington, D.C. What did they do when they were told to do nothing about it? We think all students are free to participate in clubs organized for subjects of educational or recreational interests at Provo High. There is no need for the creation of a club promoting this political agenda. Erin and Carolyn Flinders, Provo- 
• Gay-straight club's opponents try to force views on others Yes, they should allow the club to go forward. People say that they don't want the views pushed in their face, or in their children's faces, but living here in Utah I get Mormonism pushed in my face everyday. Even when I don't want to hear it. The LDS Church tries to make every law here in Utah like LDS commandments. Doesn't anyone remember the saying that you shouldn't mix law with religion Tonya Johnson, Salt Lake City- 
• Accommodating different people not hurting society According to numerous studies, 10 percent of people throughout the world will grow up to be sexually attracted to those of the same gender. This percentage is about the same as those born left-handed. It has always been this way and will always be. No one knows why, but here's what I do know, that 10 percent of our community doesn't deserve to be alienated simply for being slightly different through no fault of their own. Many accommodations have been made for we who are left-handed. The gay and lesbian citizens of this country deserve the same respect. Charles Anderson, Orem- 
• Taxpayers shouldn't pay bill for gay-straight alliance When I went to high school in the early '40s, we never suggested at any time having a gay club at our high school because we knew it wouldn't be tolerated in our schools. After reading about the gay club at Provo High School, as a taxpayer supporting education I am thoroughly disgusted. I just hope they aren't using my money to support that gay club in any way, shape or form. What happened to the good old days when the principals and teachers were supported in making the rules and giving our children a good quality education?

2005 Activists manifest daily toll of AIDS Fund the fight: Group asks state and federal governments to set aside more money for a cure Downtown display: The 8,500 shoes in SLC represent victims worldwide who die every day from the disease By Pamela Manson The Salt Lake Tribune With all the medical advances made during the past two decades, many Americans believe the AIDS pandemic is over. But on Saturday, rows and rows of shoes in Salt Lake City's Library Square provided a stark reminder of the toll the disease still takes, with each of the 8,500 shoes representing one person in the world who succumbs to AIDS each day. And they formed the backdrop for a rally calling for more state and federal funding for prevention and treatment of AIDS and HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. About 100 people gathered to welcome a caravan of activists traveling from the West to Washington, D.C., to ask lawmakers for more money to combat the disease. "This display is a brilliant, powerful and

sobering symbol," state Sen. Scott McCoy, D-Salt Lake City, said at the event, organized by local groups as part of the national Campaign to End AIDS. "We cannot let up for one second the fight to end HIV/AIDS." The Utah lawmaker added that it is good public policy to provide funding for treatment. Salt Lake County Mayor Peter Corroon agreed and called for more awareness about the disease. "The treatment advances are effective only with regular testing," Corroon said.

Stuart Merrill

Stuart Merrill, of Salt Lake City, one of the organizers of the rally, said the campaign encourages Utah legislators to approve $500,000 a year for the Department of Health to provide medication for the estimated 1,600 state residents living with HIV or AIDS. The money would stop cuts in services in Utah and supplement federal funds used to help people with the disease, he said, adding the impact would be significant. "In this day and age, there are very few people who haven't been touched by AIDS," Merrill said. The shoes in Saturday's display were gathered by individuals, advocacy organizations and private companies. They will be donated to women's shelters, rehabilitation centers and charities.

Stephen Eiche & Derek Streeter

2008 Together for 19 years: A St. George couple, Mormon and Catholic, married in California The Salt Lake Tribune By Rosemary Winters Springdale - Many newlyweds advertise their nuptials with tin cans strung from the rear bumper and a shaving-cream message in the car window. Derek Streeter and Stephen Eiche strapped "Just Married" signs to their backs and marched in a parade.  In Springdale for the Southern Utah Pride Festival, the St. George couple celebrated their recent California wedding after being together for 19 years. Their T-shirts declared the marriage date: Aug. 30, 2008.  "We have talked about this for a really long time," Streeter said. "If it had been legally recognized, we would have done it in 1989."  Streeter and Eiche are one of a number of gay couples who have traveled to California from Utah - even from conservative Washington County, which the U.S. Census Bureau mistakenly estimates has zero same-sex-partner households - to be married.  A California Supreme Court ruling legalized the unions in May, although the decision could be overturned by a ballot measure on Election Day, and the state began issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples June 17.  Streeter took that as a sign. He popped the question to Eiche in a birthday card on that very day. Eiche's sister staged the wedding at her Poway home in San Diego County, where the pair frequently visits to spend time with Eiche's family, including his mother.  "For us, it was like getting married in our hometown," Eiche said. "We knew in St. George it would never happen." The story of how they met is almost as unlikely. Eiche, 46, grew up in Tomahawk, Wis., one of 12 children in a devout Catholic family. He enlisted in the U.S. Air Force and eventually landed at Clearfield's Hill Air Force Base as a computer specialist.  Streeter, 59, hails from London, where as a teenager he joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served an LDS mission in France and later worked at the Missionary Training Center in Provo for 16 years. Both came from backgrounds - religious and military - that discouraged being openly gay. Both had moved to Salt Lake City in hopes of finding a more welcoming community. One Sunday in 1989, they locked eyes at St. Mark's Cathedral, a downtown Episcopal church. Eiche and Streeter insist the age-old cliché is true: It was love at first sight.  They count that day, April 23, as their anniversary. As theater lovers, they relish that it's also considered to be Shakespeare's birthday. The couple settled in St. George after an eight-year stint in Minnesota that left them weary of cold weather. Streeter directs an English as Second Language program in Cedar City, and Eiche works as an accountant for a St. George paving company. They spend weekends visiting art galleries, attending plays and exploring Utah's National Parks. They make frequent Saturday trips to nearby Las Vegas - not to gamble, but to shop. The gregarious couple are well known - even in San Diego, where they visit several times a year to see family. "Everyone just loves them out here," said Eiche's sister Norma Flood, who hosted the couple's wedding in Poway. "Most of the store owners in San Diego know Steve and Derek. I'll go places and no one really knows me, but everyone knows them." George and Cherie Stoddard threw an impromptu reception at their Ivins home after learning about Eiche's and Streeter's marriage. "They are as committed a couple as I've known in my lifetime," said George Stoddard, who is a marriage and family counselor. "It's a huge thing for them personally, but also, I believe, for the institution of marriage." Stoddard has donated to efforts in California to defeat Proposition 8, the fall ballot initiative that would stop gay marriage in California. If the proposition passes, California Attorney General Jerry Brown has said in published reports, it would not be retroactive: Same-sex marriages, like Eiche's and Streeter's, that already have been performed still would be recognized. But backers of the gay-marriage ban argue, in the official voters' information guide, that a "yes" vote on Proposition 8 means "only marriage between a man and a woman will be valid or recognized in California, regardless of when or where performed." It's possible the issue would be settled in court. The ballot measure prompted Streeter and Eiche to be married before November - they gave Eiche's sister about a month's notice to prep her backyard for the Labor Day weekend wedding. The couple asked a Unitarian Universalist minister to officiate. They wanted their marriage recognized by a church, even if it is ultimately dissolved in California. "We have a commitment that is, and has been, very strong and sure," Streeter said. "For now, at least, we are recognized by a church . . . and a government." After November, they know their marriage still will be valid in Massachusetts, New York and Connecticut. And, maybe, California.

Mike Urrutia

2010 McEntee: Harsh words about gays rekindle a mother’s anger By Peg Mcentee The Salt Lake Tribune P Mike Urrutia wrote his note in the car he had started in a closed garage. “I’m just tired. Please let me go.” He was Marilyn Smith’s firstborn, her only son. He was a tender boy, and she recognized early “that he wasn’t real boyish.”  But she’d grown up in a tiny Mormon community in Idaho where no one ever even thought about people being gay. “I wasn’t exposed to national newspapers,” Marilyn said. “We had the Lincoln County Journal, you know? And I read that for the gossip around town.” And she never developed much interest in the rest of the world until Mike grew up and introduced his mother to the often devastating complexities of growing up gay in a highly conservative state and faith. Mike died by suicide on Oct. 21, 2001. He was 38. Marilyn’s anguish was renewed earlier this month when LDS Church apostle Boyd K. Packer gave a conference talk on same-sex attraction and gay marriage. Gay-rights advocates cried foul and staged protests; Packer later made substantive changes to the speech to soften and correct it. Marilyn was anything but mollified, so a few days later we sat down at her kitchen table to talk. Thirty years ago, the family moved to Sandy, where Mike had a tough time in high school. He skipped classes and hated P.E., but her only response was that he absolutely had to go to school. “I never asked the right questions. I never tried to understand what was behind what was going on with him,” she says. “When he got a little older, he started being angry.” He couldn’t express what was going on inside, and didn’t feel like anyone would understand if he did. But Mike decided to go on an

Mike Urrutia

LDS mission, and got a job to earn the money. At 17, he came home and announced he’d told their bishop he thought he was gay. Mike’s dad went to see the bishop; it never occurred to either parent that Marilyn should go, too. “Because I’m this dutiful little Mormon wife,” she said. “That’s how you did things.” So the bishop and Mike’s father arranged to get him “treatment.” They could get things right, and Mike could go on his mission. As Mike wrote in his suicide note, “The Mormon Church sent a 17-yr-old boy into electroshock therapy.” Marilyn said Mike was shown pornography with electrodes attached to his penis. “Perhaps they don’t use that same technique anymore but they did it then and it contributed to my son’s depression and consequent suicide,” she said. By the time Mike finished his mission, his parents had split up. “When he came back, he was just a tortured young man,” Marilyn said. He got into drugs — “a really horrible time,” she said. She still had three daughters to raise, and was working all hours as a personal assistant to an abusive businessman. There just was no time to worry about Mike, she said as her tears fell. “I was trying to survive.” Mike lived at home for a while, then stayed with friends. Finally, he got an apartment in downtown Salt Lake City. “He was so proud of that. He had a job as a cook. He wanted to be a chef,” Marilyn said. “He developed relationships, friendships.” The lonely boy had found some semblance of balance — right until some public figure would say something demeaning about gays, Marilyn says. Then he’d go into a dark funk. He talked about moving to Oregon or California, but never did. As the years went by, Marilyn’s daughters married, had children. In 2000, Mike cooked a beautiful Thanksgiving dinner for the whole family, “which I think was part of his farewell,” Marilyn says. As is often the case with suicide, Mike had given up on therapy for his severe depression and stopped taking his medication. He self-isolated and wouldn’t return his mother’s phone calls. “He was pulling back,” she said. In his note, Mike wrote: “Cremation and no Mormon religion at my funeral. Ashes scattered in the Mtns or along Oregon Wash. Coast.” Marilyn still has his ashes.She’s left the LDS Church and considers herself an atheist. She’s retired, and lives alone with a couple of friendly little dogs. On one wall is a photo of her little boy. On another, a portrait of a dark-haired, handsome man.  “You always think: ‘What should I have done? What could I have done?’ I have to keep telling myself, ‘You can’t change anything, and you have to

Boyd  K Packer

move on.’ ” But then someone like Packer, or the openly anti-gay state Sen. Chris Buttars, “says something totally stupid and it just brings it all back. I walk around the house talking to myself and just ranting.” Mental health counselors were no help. She finds some of her relatives well-meaning but clueless. One told her, “I loved Mike, even if he was gay.” Marilyn was aghast. “What do you mean, ‘even if he was gay’? ” she said. “I loved Mike because he was my son, because he was a wonderful young man.” Every now and then, Mike would come to his mother’s house and they’d cook together. He helped her understand there’s more to a meal than meat and potatoes. “I think about him when I’m cooking, experimenting with herbs and things in my garden,” she said. “I feel like he’s here with me.” Peg McEntee is a columnist.

Trevor Southey

2015  Utah artist Trevor Southey, who celebrated human form and became a gay Mormon icon, dies at 75  From BYU teacher to LGBT icon, Southey, who died Tuesday at 75, inspired a generation.  By Sean P. Means | The Salt Lake Tribune  Trevor Southey, a Utah artist who celebrated the human form and inspired a generation of students, artists and gay Mormons, died Tuesday in a Salt Lake City hospice. He was 75. "He had a real love of the figure, of the body," said Gretchen Dietrich, executive director of the Utah Museum of Fine Arts. "He loved people, and he loved painting and drawing and sculpting people." Utah Sen. Jim Dabakis, a longtime friend of the artist, said Southey was perhaps the first major Utah Mormon figure to come out as gay. The matter-of-fact way he did it, Dabakis said, made him an icon for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community in predominantly LDS Utah. "When he came out, because of the supreme honesty," Dabakis said, "I think it threw off a lot of people. … He gave a lot of people the courage to say, 'If he can tell the truth, why can't we?' " Troy Williams, executive director of Equality Utah, called Southey "a magical human being who used his art to uplift and inspire. As a gay Mormon artist, he always acknowledged human suffering and responded by bringing beauty and kindness to the world." Southey was born in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) in 1940, descended from European colonists who settled in Cape Town, South Africa, in the 17th century. He converted to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints after hearing four missionaries singing in harmony and upon learning of the Mormon belief in the divinity of

Jim Dabakis

man. After a stint in art school in Sussex, England, Southey emigrated to America, studying at Brigham Young University in Provo. He received two degrees at BYU and taught there through 1977. His specialty was the human figure, which was considered old- fashioned in the late 20th century, Dietrich said. "He was doing figurative painting when nobody was doing figurative painting." Southey captured much in the details of his figurative paintings. "Yes, you're looking at a painted portrait of a person," Dietrich said. "But in the other details, you're actually telling many different stories about that person: Who they are, what they value, who they love." Southey's treatment of the human form sometimes was at odds with attitudes at LDS Church-owned BYU. He was not allowed to let his art students draw from nude models. Once Southey submitted a nude painting to a BYU faculty show, Dabakis said, and the dean persuaded him to paint over the naughty bits with latex paint — which the students quickly figured out how to peel off. "I've always expressed my ideals as if I were living and painting in Renaissance Italy, not puritanical heartland America," Southey told The Salt Lake Tribune in 2010. Southey's work attracted controversy in 1981, when Salt Lake City International

Airport commissioned a mural. The finished work, "Flight Aspiration," depicted a nude man and woman airborne through a deep-blue sky. "He was really proud of it, because it was awesome," his daughter Marianna Southey said. "But people were slapping luggage stickers on the offending bits." A local anti-porn group, Citizens for True Freedom, protested the mural, saying it would incite people to rape or murder. Airport authorities ultimately took down the mural, replacing it with a smaller Southey work, an innocuous landscape. ("Flight Aspiration" is now in the permanent collection of the Utah Museum of Fine Arts.) Dabakis met Southey when the artist came onto Dabakis' radio show to talk about the controversy. Dabakis joked that Southey was a terrible interview subject: When Dabakis asked about the anti-porn group's accusations, Southey replied, "Well, they do have a point." "It was so much the soul of Trevor," Dabakis said. "He refused to see evil. He refused to see ugliness. He refused to look at a world that wasn't idyllic, where beauty didn't reign." Dabakis, who owned a Park City art gallery that represented Southey, said the artist's honesty sometimes cost him business. Once, Dabakis recalled, he had nearly sold one of Southey's works to a client, until the artist started pointing out the flaws in his own work. "I can't say how many sales we lost," Dabakis said, "because he talked a client out of a painting." In 1982, at age 42, Southey went public that he was gay. The decision ended his marriage to Elaine. In 1985, Southey relocated to the San Francisco Bay Area and ultimately was joined there by his adult children. Southey moved back to Provo in 2013 because of his health — he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer a decade earlier, and Parkinson's disease around 2010. His children, one by one, also moved back to Utah. For the past year, he lived in hospice in Salt Lake City.  "I like to say I've lived five lives in one body," Southey said in 2010, "and the artist's life is just one of those."  Southey is survived by his ex-wife, Elaine Fish Walton; their four children: Marianna Southey, Kevin Southey, Sarah Southey and Susanna Cornaby; and six grandchildren. A memorial service is scheduled for Sunday, Nov. 8, at 3 p.m., in the Dumke Auditorium of the Utah Museum of Fine Arts, 410 Campus Center Drive, University of Utah, Salt Lake City.
