רִבִּי יוּדָה בֶּן פָּזִי סְלַק לְעִילִיתָא דְבֵי מִדְרָשָׁא וְרָאָה שְׁנֵי בְנֵי אָדָם נִזְקָקִין זֶה לָזֶה. אָֽמְרוּ לֵיהּ. רִבִּי. הַב דַּעְתָּךְ דְּאַתְּ חַד וַאֲנָן תְּרֵי.
"Rabbi Yudah son of Pazi went up to the roof of the house of study, and saw two people (men) cleaving to one another. They said to him, "Rabbi, but you surely know that you are one and we are two!""
-Jerusalem Talmud: Sanhedrin 6:3 verse 7
The men caught having sex were referring to the fact that in order to prosecute a crime in Jewish law, at least two witnesses are necessary. The men were essentially telling Rabbi Yudah that it's his word against theirs, a very bold but true thing to say. This very small aside in the Talmud (having random tangents is very common in the Talmud) is just a subtle indication of the existence of gay people in Ancient Judea, and the fact that this story is retold and there's no indication that the men were punished for the act, such as "and then Rabbi Yudah reported them and they were stoned" might also be a subtle indicator that indeed, the men were not prosecuted, even if a great Rabbi witnessed them.

I thought I should commemorate my 500th Teepublic design by posting about it here

As said on the page, there's some disagreement over how to spell the word, but lately I prefer געי to avoid confusion with forms of גיין, as well as to reflect the English etymology. The purist way is גיי though, since עי is not part of the standard orthography.
