Just a small post. Did you know you can look up business and corporations to see their ranking on LGBT policies and issues? Such as whether they offer domestic partner benefits or include transpositive issues in the workplace. You can even see which companies don't make the list. Great way to see if your money […]
If you use the Google blog search on the federal legislation known as ENDA (Employment Non Discrimination Act), you'll see a fair amount of information, outrage and distortion of facts on all sides of the debate. The truth is that there is a very real opportunity to pass federal legislation that would protect gay Americans […]
Congratulations to Joe Hoeffel for receiving the endorsement of the Liberty City Democrats, the Philadelphia LGBT Stonewall chapter to be the next Governor of Pennsylvania. According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the whole damn race is up in the air. Nearly half of Democratic Pennsylvania is undecided. Forty-seven percent of the Democratic respondents said they remained […]
Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 5, 2010 which will be the date of Pittsburgh's 5th Annual Dyke March. The location will still be in Oakland and organizers have fabulous plans for the ultimate grassroots picnic (get it?) and post-march party. What's is a dyke march? Dyke March is a mostly lesbian-led and inclusive gathering […]
It is the second thing people ask me after making the requisite joke about her hair/makeup. Frankly, I'm amazed (read: disappointed) at how catty us feminists can be when it comes to the appearances of women who are Republican. But I digress. I don't care if Jane Orie is a lesbian. Stop foisting the unappealing […]
Guest columnist Mary Grabar doesn't like new school curricula that teach kids coping skills. While opinining about this in the Tribune Review, she just can't resist a full body slam of GLSEN – the Gay Lesbian and Straight Education Network. While most people would consider an activist like Kevin Jennings, who founded the Gay, Lesbian […]
Save the Date: Sunday April 25 at 2 PM This is a fun event with good conversation and, of course, great desserts. It is really empowering to have two women taking the lead with a political event. The event is at 1343 Sharps Hill Road 15215. Following up on my previous post, this is a […]
Quite a disturing tale from Mississippi …. you remember Constance McMillen who just wanted to take her girlfriend to the prom. Then came outrage, banishment, the ACLU, court cases, media frenzy … and a fake prom. Yes, the senior class held a “private prom” and sent Constance, her date and five special needs children to […]
I mean really … from Philly.com Gov. Rendell was among at least 30 governors to receive a letter this week from an extremist antigovernment group demanding that he resign or face being “removed from office,” according to officials in the Philadelphia office of the FBI. Rendell received the letter within the last 48 hours and […]
What an odd duck of a newspaper. It regularly runs anti-LGBT columns, such as the one below, but will occasionlly print a delightful little story about a teenaged lesbian living in a rural Mon Valley town. Anyway, this gem was printed a few days ago in defense of poor Catholic Charities, bemoaning the utter destruction […]
