Lady Gaga accept the award for Best New Artist from a befuddled looking Eminem In case any of you missed last weekend’s Lady Gaga performance on MTV’s Video Music Awards, here’s a clip courtesy the music monolith. Gaga is bringing the world of weird, queer performance art to mainstream culture. And it is amazing my friends. Lady Gaga – New Music – More Music […]

Kings For a Cause, is an National Drag Event created by the Emeritus Mister King of the Desert USofA MI, Anson Reign, of Phoenix, Arizona that brings together Drag King troupes all over the country in a one of a kind fundraising event August 28th, 29th, and 30th.

I’m still digesting the full brunt of last night’s amazing Homo’s Got Talent dance-off competition so a review is forthcoming. However, I can tease all of you who weren’t there and provide happy memories to those of you who were with a plethora of titillating talented homo […]  All 4 signature drinks from left to right: Blueberry, Basil, Pomegranate and Lavender Glosses. All I can say is that organizer Carlee Smith puts on a damn good party, and the newly opened Invasion Atomic Lounge (412 SW 4th) is the perfect swanky spot in which to host it. Opening night was the perfect melding of delicious drinks and alcohol soaked nibbly things, wandering chit chat, and aurally satisfying relaxation. And even though I love to dance, the space to simple sit and chill was a nice change of pace from the usual cramped hot quarters of other bars. Continue reading »  Opening night at Invasion Somehow, the capacity for puns that so enthrals fellow blogger PerryWinkle has taken residence in my own writing style, hence the potentially painful title of this post. Luckily, you can sooth your aching ears with the much smoother sounds and surroudings at Portland’s newest ladies’s night, Gloss, at Portland’s newest queer bar, Invasion. Put on by Portland’s premiere Fatshionista Carlee Smith, of Fat Fancy, Gloss is a night more for schmoozing and socializing than dancing. And though Wednesdays may have some competition from the north, there are plenty of perks that make Gloss a great place to hang out. Continue reading »
We rarely do fluff here at QPDX.com, although I won’t claim that we always do *serious* reporting either. We sometimes post things just for the eye candy factor of them – but oh so rarely for the girlqueers. We know that’s a complex issue – what’s considered “hot” in dyke circles isn’t always what the mainstream intarweb can provide. So enjoy this sizzling list! And the term “butch” is used to encompass a spectrum of masculinities-there are GQ, old-skool butches and Trans identified people there too. Some of my faves are posted underneath the cut…!

Another example of stupid people getting paid too much? I really feel that addressing sizism and sexism in the queer community and in society in general is part of my “mission” as a queer person to create a more equal, more loving, more respectful and diverse society. There are so many hot big girls and boys (and everyone in between) in this town. Plus, we all know queers drink a lot. (let’s be honest, here) Fuck You Bacardi, I don’t support any alcohol that uses discriminatory practices in their advertising ! Continue reading »  Sam Adams' bike contingent at Pride 2009 Now that we are all finally recovered from our hangovers it’s time to reflect on the weekend. It was a wild success that saw the gorgeous Miss Sabel Scities win Portland’s Drag Race, 115 floats, thousands of attendees, very few protesters and about a million parties. Below are my weekend highlights but we really want to hear yours, so comment below! Continue reading » Sara Ray and friends hold op a rainbow flag to shield themselves from the rain at the Pride waterfront village It was a wild ride my friends but pictures from this weekend’s Dyke March, headlining Uh Huh Her performance at the waterfront and Sunday’s big Pride Parade itself are ready for perusal. We will be adding a few throughout the day and if you would like to […] |
