We’ll we’ve made the leap from Blogware to WordPress and it seems we landed on our feet. You’ll notice a very sleek look. As I learn my way around the software, I’ll bring back the blogrolls and fancy features. The most important thing is to note that Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents v1.0 is safely archived. […]
James Harrison did not apologize for using a gay slur. He didn’t man up and say “It is a hurtful word and I shouldn’t have used it” Instead he blamed it on slang. “I also need to make clear that the comment about Roger Goodell was not intended to be derogatory against gay people in […]
I am not sure I’ll be able to update this afternoon but pay attention to the gay media folks today … it is a big one. Metro Weekly, Wall Street Journal and other news outlets are reporting that the Pentagon is going to certify the plan to repeal DADT TODAY. If the Pentagon certifies the […]
Just so you see a slice of public sentiment … James Bruno of McCandless stirred the pot by pulling back the curtain on the gay agenda to destroy the Catholic Church, force everyone in the nation to approve of anal sex and good taste in furnishings AND kill the fetus. OMG, he’s on to us […]
I hope my paternal great-grandfather, Gil Remley, would be proud that Ledcat and I have an op/ed published in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Our topic? Homophobia in Professional Sports and the Need for Teams like the Pirates to send a different message. (The editor made it sound more lofty). Gil Remley ended his career in journalism […]
I read this late last night and choked on whatever was in my glass. This man has zero understanding of LGBT issues. Zero.

Once again, it is time to participate in the blogswarm for LGBT families sponsored by the blog Mombian. I've given some thought to my topic this year and decided to write a response to the perception that not having children makes us less than a family. I think there is more than one person who perceives LGBTQ families without children […]
I'm a little behind the curve, but kudos to Easton, Pennsylvania for doing what Allegheny County leadership won't by extending domestic partner benefits to your employees. Yes, I mention Allegheny County because I was genuinely shocked to read that only 5 municipalities across Pennsylvania have addressed this equal rights issue, especially given how many private sector […]
Bethlehem gave preliminary approval to the establishment of a local Human Relations Commission and the inclusion of sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as protected classes. A final vote is set for June. Not so fast. Steadfast sponsors of the bill voted against it as amended because it would have no investigatory powers (???) […]
Yesterday, Tenneessee Governor Bill Haslam signed into law a bill that prohibits TN municipalities from having stronger anti-discrimination laws than are in place statewide. This means Nashville's provisions including sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression as protected classes are invalid. No new laws can be passed unless on a statewide level. Controversy has erupted […]
