  She Bop co-owners and founders Jeneen Doumitt and Evy Cowan The vodcast hasn’t forgotten about you! Queer Agenda is back this month with an episode dedicated entirely to newly opened women-centric sex toy shoppe She Bop (909 N Beech). Co-owner Evy Cowan leads us through some of the store’s most popular items including vibrators that thrum to your dance club beat (Blow Pony watch out), double dildos that engage the kegels, and beautifully blown glass pieces that are great for temperature play. And though perhaps less sexually useful, but just as entertaining, is the selection of vibes of yore. I do so love a history of sex.
We open up this month with a brand new Oregon AIDS/STD hotline commercial.

We’re not hard to please.
 George Alan Rekers
In last night’s Alpha Dog of the Week political satirist Stephen Colbert profiled Family Research Council co-founder George Alan Rekers co-founder. In case you missed it Rekers, vehemently anti-gay leader of a group that tries to “cure” homosexuality, was caught in an airport after paying for a 10-day trip to Europe with a rentboy who was referred to as a “travel assistant.”
The Colbert […]
 Bolivia, Nefertiti, and co. pose for an eager passer-by.
I happen to be around Pioneer Square an hour ago to see Bolivia and others dragging it up; they were waving, posing for and with on-lookers, as well as answering questions.
You can catch the spectacle every other Wednesday (starting at 7:00 or you can ride the MAX with them from C.C. Slaughters at 6:30) now through summer […]
  Vote Karol Collymore for County Commissioner County Commissioner candidate Karol Collymore may not be gay, but she gets an honorary badge…so says fellow queer journalists and shakers Stephen Marc Beaudoin, Byron Beck, Caryn Brooks, Jim Radosta, Bryan Boyd and others. She’s received the endorsements of The Oregonian, Willamette Week, NARAL, and several elected officials. Her policy and personality make it a no-brainer for qPDX to add itself to this list of supporters.
Running in District 2, encompassing North and Northeast Collymore has a solid record of LGBT support and community activism including work with Basic Rights Oregon, Hands on Greater Portland, Planned Parenthood Advocates of Oregon and a year-long experiment hosting progressive dinner parties for small non-profits like Schoolhouse Supplies and P:ear. She was also a longtime staffer for Jeff Cogen, current commish and in the running for Multnomah County Chairman.

  Oregon men have something to be proud of, according to Condomania, who just released a study ranking the state of Oregon second only to New Hampshire in penis size.

In business for 20 years, Condomania, gathered their data from the launch of TheyFit Condoms, the world’s first line of tailored-fit prophylactics, in 76 sizes. Since their debut in 2004 they have sold over 27,000 men in 70 countries, and now have just begun to analyze this cache of data.
