Sappho Speaks: What If the World Were Oprah and Gayle?

I know it’s been a long running joke in the lesbian community but we all know it is just wishful thinking, but let’s take that wish on into fruition and live in this world for a little while. I think we would find 2009’s political landscape much different for gay men and women.

Politics Is Gay.

Hot:

I swear recently, I’ve talked about politics more than anything else, at home at least. It’s probably because of the upcoming general election. Well, one of the hottest topics right now is Gay Rights. I was surprised to hear David Cameron saying how “We do need good sex and relationship education. That education should teach [...]

Hot:

I was reading an article on the election in Maine today, and although it was a fairly positive article in regards to the “No on 1″ campaign, there were a couple sentences that when I read them… they stung. Like a slap in the face. Not gonna lie, I started crying. While the comment itself [...]

This I Believe

this-i-believe

Hot:

Tonight the wife got an email about a nationwide special that the American Family Association produced called Speechless: Silencing Christians.

Hot:

Our freedom of speech is an all important thing, especially in this day and age, but it seems that some groups want it to apply only to them and not to others.  You see this everywhere, between church and state, liberal and conservative, gay and straight, name two groups and I guarantee that they believe [...]

Encouragement

Hot:

My grandmother and I went to go see Milk last night. It was the first time I saw it in theatres, which was nice because I could catch all of the things I missed during the first time I watched it. We sat in the theatre and bawled like babies. Afterward, my grandmother looked at [...]
