Outsports is happy to join Playboy's Twitter feed today (Thursday, Aug. 15) for a chat about Russian anti-gay laws and calls for an Olympic boycott. The chat will run from from 1pm-3pmET.

You can join the Twitter chat today by tweeting your thoughts and questions on Russian anti-gay laws, the calls for an Olympic boycott, or your personal ideas on how to address the issues, by tweeting:

@Playboy
#boycottchat

We will be at their offices in Beverly Hills managing the Twitter account during the chat.

While the publication is an issue for some in our community, we believe this is a great opportunity for the community to reach an audience we seldom have the ability to speak directly to: Straight men who like Playboy. So tweet your thoughts and questions and we'll retweet and get to as much as we can. Playboy has already run a column by Cyd on his reasons for opposing an Olympic boycott.

So join us later today @Playboy. We're also on Twitter @outsports.
