A Lesbian Thanksgiving

A Lesbian Thanksgiving

Our Thanksgiving is pretty nice. We all have small families so we all gather together (my parents, Ledcat's mother, her brother and his family, our sister-in-law's mother) wherever dinner might be.  This year, we headed north to Mercer County. There's no real huge lesbian element to the holiday.  We've been together for 7 years so no […]

Comments

I'm going back to anonymous comments because it is a bit cumbersome to register and post a comment.  Let's try to act with some maturity.  You can still use your real name.  There are two or three people who post repeatedly and it is obvious who they are.  Don't ruin it for everyone.  Say what […]

The PG has a good piece on the spread of poverty into the suburbs.  In the Pittsburgh area, more than three-quarters of the poor population now live in the suburbs. In the decade since the turn of the century, “The number of poor in the suburbs has grown by more than twice the rate than […]

Dan Frankel says we need to vote for Onorato

LGBT champion, State Representative Dan Frankel penned a letter to the Post-Gazette urging Western Pennsylvania to support Onorato because he's the better choice on LGBT issues.
