The online petition claims that the marriage would help raise awareness about the importance of gay marriage in America: "Mitch and Cam are a couple that America has come to know and love, and seeing them get married, and seeing the characters in the story grapple with their desire to get married, makes it real for a bigger part of America." Jesse Tyler Ferguson (Mitch) later tweeted that he loved the idea, but they may need to wait for Prop 8 to be overturned. ]]> Thu, 16 May 2013 10:49:41 MDT Staff TV 1 http://gaynow.com/story.php?title=aclu-time-for-modern-family-gay-couple-to-wed http://gaynow.com/story.php?title=zachary-quinto-star-trek-into-darkness-star-gay-marriage-is-an-unstoppable-wave Star Trek: Into Darkness premiers, openly-gay actor Zachary Quinto (Spock) hob-nobbed with a few Congressman, where he advocated for gay rights and gun control: "You can see now we have 13 states in the union that have adopted marriage equality, and that's an unstoppable wave as far as I'm concerned."

Wired examines the cause of this phenomenon in the early series, as well as the later movies (and more recent film re-makes): "This heritage makes it all the more unfortunate that the progressive values of the original series seem to have faltered—and even begun trailing the mainstream—with the increasingly pointed absence of LGBT members in later iterations of the franchise, and their failure to treat sexual orientation like the same sort of non-issue that Roddenberry once envisioned for race and gender on the bridge of the Enterprise." ]]> Mon, 13 May 2013 10:11:31 MDT Staff TV 1 http://gaynow.com/story.php?title=star-treks-history-of-progressive-values-%E2%80%94-and-why-it-faltered-on-lgbt-crew-members http://gaynow.com/story.php?title=jessica-simpson-furious-over-ex-nick-lacheys-claims-her-father-joe-grabbed-his-a Watch What Happens Live!.
