Homophobia Vs Heterosexism

Date March 28, 2009

The more I hear the use of the term homophobia the more I wonder why it’s still in use. Language is complicated, as is its use. I’ve long held that people who experience homophobia are not “afraid of gays” per se, but are rather afraid of themselves ever experiencing sexual attraction to a person of [...]

We’re So Sorry, Uncle Albert

Date March 26, 2009

It’s been rocking the gay weberverse for the past week, so I thought it only fair that I, too, post this fantastic video of Portia De Rossi. She and Ellen are such an unlikely couple, but I love them both so whatevs.

Just gay it!

WCF: Everyone will go gay if it’s legal. Seriously.

Date March 25, 2009

I’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest that the so called “special rights” aimed at those of us of the homosex persuasion (that would be the GLBT, or what I like to think of as the Glowboot, community) involve things like not being executed by governments, beaten by citizens, and if [...]

Rabbi Steve Greenberg at Ithica College Tonight!

Date March 23, 2009

(Note: I had every intention of posting this in the morning, but the internet conspired against me and I couldn’t get a strong enough connection to post it on time. Phoeey for that, but here it is anyway.)

If you’re Orthodox Jewish and gay, or if you’re Conservative or Reform or any other branch of Jewish [...]

Magazines and Newspapers and Fab Tables, oh my!

Date March 18, 2009

I’m notorious for letting stacks of magazines and newspapers pile up all over my house, and find that I have to clear the clutter away about once a week. My dining table and coffee table are great, but I generally like to avoid cluttering them up with materials to read. Hence, I find the Circle [...]

Chile Rocks the Courts

Date March 17, 2009

Though I couldn’t find any confirmation from other news sources, Life Site News is reporting that a woman in Chile was not granted custody of her children after divorcing her gay husband.

CHILE, March 16, 2009 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A judge has provoked outrage in Chile by awarding custody of two children to their homosexual father, after [...]

It’s still illegal to be gay in Burundi

Date March 16, 2009

Though I haven’t posted about it, I’ve been following the story about the sad state of affairs in Burundi, where people took the streets last to protest the fact that homosexuality is no longer punishable by death there. That’s right, apparently there’s a “majority of people” in that country who believe that being gay is [...]

Fashionmista Friday – Not of This Planet

Date March 13, 2009

I love the internet. Mostly because I love Jessica and Heather from Go Fug Yourself. And yet another reason to love them is that they pointed me to a another fancy fashion blog, the catty and brilliant Project Rungay.

This week, they were talking shoes. And they covered the topic of shoes very nicely indeed. So [...]

Breaking News – Family Guy is Wild and Crazy. Yawn.

Date March 12, 2009

I get the best email in the world. This from the latest “Action Alert” from the American Family Association’s very own Donald “I’m not a homo, but I pay more mind to gay sex than I ever did straight sex” Wildmon.

Civil Disobedience and Proposition 8

Date March 12, 2009

I have a few questions for people in the world who support California’s Proposition 8. I keep a close eye on what those heterosexuals who are so fascinated by us gay folks are up to (such as the creepy and almost incestuous duo of father and daughter that comprises the Traditional Values Coaliton), and thanks [...]
