California just can't get it together. But, 18,000 already married gay couples get to stay that way.
I usually am not a fan of third graders. And I hate starting a sentence with "kids these days" but thing is, kids these days seem awfully different than when I was a wee one. However, this kid is awesome.
Thanks to Feministing.com's community site for posting the vid and blogdate.
Slate has an interesting story about how the conservative right has been mum lately on gay marriage. Seriously, no Armageddon? Damn.
Lindsay Lohan is thinking about converting to Judaism so she can marry SamRo? WTF? I really want SamRo to quit that bitch and get a hot little femme.
Marie Osmond has a gay daughter? And talked about it? In a not-crappy way?
It really doesn't get any better than this: Miss California's mom was involved in a steamy lesbian love affair? HEYO
I'm not the biggest fan of Professor Foxy's weekly column at Feministing.com, but I'm slowly coming around. She doesn't have the snark that I love in Savage Love, but her advice, albeit toned down, is as far as I can tell, good. But her recent column is a subject that is sort of hush-hush still (and shouldn't be): Female ejaculation. Now, you'll find your lesbians who love it, lesbians who wish they could do it, lesbians who fantasize about it and everything else in the gamut. So, where do you fall?
Happy Weekend!
RuPaul is headlining Capital Pride's June 14 festival. Does it get any better?
Miriam over at Feministing.com shares a story about an issue I'm sure a good number of us have encountered: Getting asked (or hears someone muttering) "Is that a boy or a girl?" Miriam identifies as genderqueer and talks a bit about language, how to answer and what it means to be genderqueer.
The awesomely bad National Organization for Marriage has released another gem. This one is being run in New Hamshire.
Watch out!
I'm not the biggest fan of "Make Me a Supermodel," but The Wifey likes it and it somehow has become a Wednesday tradition. I did get more than I bargained for when on tonight's episode, Amanda, decided to admit (during a naked shoot) that she tries to be naked around her son, so he doesn't "[no offense] turn gay."
Sigh. Oh dear sweet Amanda. Don't you know you're on Bravo? After LOGO, it's the gayest channel there is. For reals. But this? In the beginning, I thought her little quirks were cute, like how she says like way too often. I even batted for her when Jordan would be snarky about her. But no more. And here's why.
Moms, moms-to-be, lesbians who are adopting, etc., etc.: When will you realize that having a gay son is probably the best combo of kid/sexual orientation there is? You will forever have someone who will shop, talk, cook and all that with you. And he'll never leave you to be with his annoying girlfriend. Instead, he'll bring over his boyfriend because you're the cool Mom. The Mom who loves having them both over. At the same time. While acknowledging that it's OK to be gay. Maybe that's sexist and stereotypical. So what? If I have a kid, I hope he's gayer than seventeen rainbows.
