Little Mix sings under massive rainbow flag during performance in Dubai

Little Mix mixed things up big time during the all-star concert to celebrate the Global Teacher Prize
The massively popular British girl group took the stage and during a performance of their hit “Secret Love Song, Pt. II,” a massive rainbow Pride flag appeared on the stage’s screen.
It’s no secret that the LGBTQ community face discrimination in the country, with federal law dictating that gay sex between men or “sodomy with a male” is punishable by death. However, as PinkNews points out, “executions of gay people are not carried out.” They do, still, face imprisonment.

The band, comprised of Perrie Edwards, Jade Thirlwall, Jesy Nelson, and Leigh-Anne Pinnock, was clearly out to make a statement, and audience members and fans took notice.

The song they performed has become something of an anthem among their gay fans and is actually a bonus track from their 2015 album, Get Weird.
The original version of the Little Mix song, featuring Jason Derulo, was titled simply “Secret Love Song.” Part of the lyrics of the song say, “Why can’t I hold you in the street? Why can’t I kiss you on the dance floor? I wish that it could be like that, why can’t it be like that? ‘Cause I’m yours.” It paints a picture of a forbidden relationship, one tabooed by circumstance and society – an all-too-real reality that members of the LGBTQ community (no matter their country) understand implicitly.

Ryan O’Connell says ‘Special’ season 2 will have “a lot more gay sex”

Fans of Netflix’s Special are in for a treat because the show has been renewed for a second season and the show’s creator and star, Ryan O’Connell, has promised “a lot more gay sex.”
The groundbreaking series, based on O’Connell’s 2015 memoir I’m Special: And Other Lies We Tell Ourselves, follows character Ryan Hayes, a gay man with cerebral palsy who decides to reinvent himself and live the life he wants.
In a new interview with Entertainment Weekly, O’Connell revealed his frustration that more shows don’t depict the reality of “sexual experiences for gay people, many of whom grew up with little to no education.”

In the new season, he plans to change that. “I think anything that still has a stigma attached to it just naturally excites me,” he told EW. “I think there shouldn’t be any of that, especially with gay sex. I’ve had to suffer through so many straight sex scenes and now everyone else has to pay.”

Referencing his own sexual experiences as a young gay man, he added “I remember when I started having sex when I was 17 — not to brag — I didn’t know anything about anal sex at all.”

“I went to Barnes & Noble and got this book called Anal Pleasure and Health that was for straight people. L-O-actual-L… For like three months, I thought you could only have sex on your stomach.”
Special season 2 currently doesn’t have a release date, but season 1 is currently streaming on Netflix.
