Leave it to a Brit rapper with outlandish fashion sense to successfully break down the human condition. And the multiple personalities as displayed on magazine covers can offer a great start to a philosophical discussion as well. One more thing. The therapist in the video is hot. Do you need any more reason to love this vid? […]
I suppose in reality you don’t need this service in Portland because on any given night you pretty much know where are the queer people are going to be, but as someone with occasional social awkwardness (which is also not unusual in this town) a technical crutch might be a handy aide.

Jeana Frazzini, Executive Director of Basic Rights Oregon says of the bill: “Bullying and harassment are far too common in Oregon schools. This proposal will help keep children safe.” Continue reading » Everyone’s favorite lesbian anchor, Rachel Maddow, continues to light up the screen on her show…and everyone else’s. Last night she appeared on Jimmy Fallon and they had adorable banter about drinking and masculinity. Although they may have already been a little tipsy, as both kept spilling the vermouth. […] We all know the L Word ended, or rather didn’t, badly…and we are all dying to talk about it. Well aren’t we? Is Mama Chaiken going to take over the world with L Word spin-offs? Is Helena saving herself for Winkle? Will we get a better microphone? And is incest really relevant to who killed Jenny?

I am very privileged to almost always feel safe in Portland and I usually feel fairly confident that I will not be gay bashed in most of Oregon, certainly in our laid back coastal areas. But this weekend 2 young gay men, nursing students from western Washington, were beaten severely in Seaside, Oregon.

Oddly enough I don’t see any viewing parties that have popped up around town on first glance so please use this post as a forum to let us all know about your special part-tay. (If you happen to be living in NYC you have a lot more options.) Continue reading » Logo news interviews prominent and openly gay Congressman Barney Frank about the current major political issues facing the LGBTQ community today. He keeps his comments quick, simple to the point and, for the most part, fairly positive. He identifies 3 major steps forward he believes Obama can accomplish in his first term: 1 – A trans inclusive ENDA (Employee Non-Discrimination Act) 2 – A trans inclusive hate crimes bill 3 – Repeal of Don’t Ask Don’t Tell And while he was less sure about the timeline of a repeal of DOMA (Defense of Marriage Act) he thinks the fight is coming and it is worth it. Best yet, he blatantly and loudly calls Justice Antonin Scalia a homophobe. Go Barney! (I love you…You love me…) For the full video (which is actually only 3 minutes) click below Continue reading » |
