The 2008 Lezzy Award Winners

Best Lesbian Entertainment/Culture Blog: Dorothy Surrenders – A gay gal’s guide to pop culture. Why let the boys have all the fun?

Best Lesbian Humor Blog: Grace the Spot- Grace the Spot is an entertainment, lifestyle, pop culture and current events blog founded by a couple of lesbians in New York City when they were a couple. Although they are no longer a couple, the blog lives on.

Best Lesbian Parenting/Wedding Blog: Lesbian Dad- LesbianDad is a personal essay/photography blog about parenthood generally, and lesbian parenthood in particular, with especial attention to the experiences of non-birth and/or butch mums and the many larger questions our unique kind of parenthood opens up. I expect that my own family experiences reflect those of many others; if they don’t, I hope they expand your understanding of family, LGBT or otherwise.

Best Lesbian Feminism/Political Blog: Pam’s House Blend- An online magazine in the reality-based community.

Best Lesbian Personal Blog: This Girl Called Automatic Win- A stunning 27 year old Warlem almost-hipster navigates the rocky roads of her smokin’ hot life. This includes post-post college ennui, the tipping balance between emotional withdrawal and frightening investment, the C train, nine-dollar bottles of “drinkable” Pinot Grigio and the gaping holes in her Chuck Taylors. She’d like to lie more often than she does, because honesty is a real bitch.

Best Lesbian 50 and Over Blog: just eat your cupcake- There are random moments-tossing a salad, coming up the driveway to the house, ironing the seams flat on a quilt square, standing at the kitchen window and looking out at the delphiniems, hearing a burst of laughter from one of my children’s rooms-when I feel a wavelike rush of joy. This is my true religion; arbitrary moments of nearly painful happiness for a life I feel privileged to lead….Elizabeth Berg.

Best Lesbian Gender Bender Blog: Sugarbutch Chronicles- I’m Sinclair Sexsmith, a chivalrous kinky queer butch top, and feminist sex educator, activist, and writer in New York City.

Best Lesbian Sex/Short Story/Erotica Blog: Sugarbutch Chronicles- A personal writing exploration of sex, gender, and relationships, and attempts to celebrate queer theory, sexuality, gender, culture, and identity in ways that are expansive rather than restrictive, liberating rather than limiting.

Lesbian Overall Blog of the Year: Dorothy Surrenders- Part Dorothy Gale. Part Dorothy Parker. All friend of Dorothy.

About: I’m a big ol’ lesbo living in beautiful downtown Brooklyn. I enjoy a pint well-pulled and a hearty giggle or two. I’ve also got a rockin’ head of hair andlegs longer than most. For reasons beyond my comprehension, strangers on the subway seem to really enjoy my feet.
