Comedian Guy Branum is currently promoting his new book, My Life As A Goddess. He created a sexy little video -- complete with three, Speedo-clad hunks -- to help get word out and tried to make it a "promoted" tweet to hit a wider audience.

 

Twitter, however, canceled the promoted tweet claiming it violated community standards. (The tweet is still available to Branum's followers, but will no longer show up on random people's Twitter feeds as an ad.)

 

“It’s dudes wearing swimsuits kissing each other,” Branum said. “This level of salaciousness when objectifying female bodies has been the norm in our society. We’re not used to seeing it applied to men without declaring that representation pornographic.”

 

He added: “We have to accept that we’ve been trained to see gay sex as dangerous and gross, and that has real effects. It’s still legal in 47 states for criminal defendants to argue that violence or murder was justified because a gay man or trans woman hit on them. We see gay male sex as dirtier than straight sex (or straight friendly girl-on-girl), and that makes it harder to grow up and live as a gay man. It’s got to stop.”
