The persecution of heterosexual (dogs).

This isn’t really so unexpected. The straight homo-haters have been trying to play the victim forever. But what is so amazing is how this douche totally misses the point about this dog, who once rescued was named “Elton.” The dog’s sexual orientation never had anything to do with anything. The animal shelter was uncomfortable killing the dog, not because the dog was gay, but because the previous owner was a total asshole, and the dog should not be punished for a person’s idiocy.

The B Will No Longer Be Silent

one group that has been a part of the rainbow coalition for a long time has also been a silent part, and may not be silent any more. The “B” for Bisexual, is ga Inge a larger voice within the whole of the LGBTQ community.

Back to the Dark Ages: The American Theocracy in Action

In reality, Pastor Bell gives God no money what-so-ever. God doesn’t accept US currency. This focus on God, and this fallacy of what we give to God, is a step back to the Dark Ages or further. It is one more example of a growing American Theocracy where God is at the apex of everything.

The Very Un-Christian Christianist Religious Right

As the LGBTQ community sees massive and growing cultural support for Equality, we must not turn a blind eye to the Far Right extremists who are not going to go away quietly. They believe they need Special Forces strategies, and they aren’t talking about using Prayer. They, are at war with you and I and anyone who promotes Equality.

Is the Rainbow Alphabet Growing or Shrinking?

In other words for example, some of these youth who self-identify as gay, also identify as lesbian, and queer. The large number of hands that go up for the first option “Gay,” may have something to do with the fact that the audience isn’t aware of what the choices may be. For example, they may anticipate that the options will only be “Gay” or “Straight.” Or it may be that to this specific audience, these terms are more fluid than they appear, and self-identity is also fluid.

Harry Reid Acts Against the American People.

Reid’s action supports the fractious two parties and take control away from the American people and their ability to control government through their right to vote. I would go so far as to say that Reid’s efforts are just as dangerous to individual voting rights as the GOP’s efforts to inhibit access to the polls.

Creating Change Locally

The Creating Change conference sponsored by the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force is going on right now, and every year, I think that next year, I’m going to go. Truly, I am almost envious as I read friend’s Facebook posts about what they are doing there. But this year, I have a different mindset. This year, I’m glad I was right here in Pittsburgh, helping to create change locally by attending the Black and[Read More…]

Using “faggot” was not Azealia Banks’ biggest error.

As far too many queer and disenfranchised youth commit suicide, why is it that such comments go unchecked? Perhaps not unchecked. We don’t know exactly why the label dropped her. But there really is more to this story.

Rand Paul’s Greatest Tragedy

Idiots like Rand Paul won an election when the American People were clamoring for job creation. For the Far Right, every effort had to be made to harm the Administration. For the Far Left, Obama had not been progressive enough or fought hard enough (for example: the Public Option). And for everyone in between these extremes, the single most important agenda was the economy and job creation.

Is Azealia Banks a Bully?

The world is too small and the number of youth who are killing each other and killing themselves too high without anyone in the public’s eye encouraging it. Azealia Banks is part of the problem harming our young people, not a part of the solution from it.
