This weeks Throwback is from September of 2013. While there have many successes regarding LGBTQ rights, much of the violence continues. The following events took place during the first half of 2013: Nick Porto and Kevin Atkins were walking along the street in New York, hand in hand, when several men clad in identical basketball […]

Fifty
Tomorrow (Saturday Sept 28) is my fiftieth birthday. Yep, the big Five-O. I didn’t think it was going to bother me, but I’m shocked that I was wrong. All week I’ve been irritable. It didn’t bother me when I turned thirty. It didn’t bother me when I turned 40. Interestingly, it did bother me […]
Public Displays of Affection
The following events took place during the first half of 2013: Nick Porto and Kevin Atkins were walking along the street in New York, hand in hand, when several men clad in identical basketball vests shouted at them from behind, knocked them to the ground and beat them, while passersby took photos and […]
Same Love
Do you think all Hip Hop is anti-gay? You’ve thought wrong. Here’s a song that is getting a lot of airplay. It’s currently in Billboard Magazines top 100 charts and on the way up. I love this song so much that I had to share it. Enjoy.

Waving the Rainbow Flag
Today’s the big day that thousands of gay, lesbian and transgender couples will finally be able to register to marry in California. No time to post today. We’re sure that there will be plenty of right wing prosters against marriage equality so I’ve organized my church to be out there in full support. I’ve got […]
A Gain and A Loss
I’m still like a giddy school girl. California enacting marriage equality yesterday has me dancing and twirling. I’m acting so gay. Btw, folks. Please start calling it “marriage equality” and not “gay marriage”, unless we all decide to start referring to “straight marriage” as well. Oh hell, call it whatever you want, I’m just damned […]
