Oh my lord … I cannot believe that Ellen DeGeneres has gone from one of the coolest lesbians around to a whiny, spoiled celebrity brat who pouts on national television because she can't get her way. DeGeneres and her partner adopted a dog from a rescue. The dog didn't get along with their cats so DeGeneres […]
Does anyone seriously believe that Duquesne University has an iota of credibility with regard to the editorial independence of WDUQ? Seriously, now? Anyone? Scott Hanley thinks reporting on their own capitulation to the big D somehow indicates independence. Duquesne University should do what's in the best interest of the public and surrender the license for […]
I love Pittsburgh. Only here could a jackass like Kenneth King get sympathy for threatening to “shank” a dog. King, a resident of the Mexican War Streets, walked past a canine unit at the Cedar Avenue Sunoco. The K-9 dog, Benny, barked at him. From inside the car. Mr. King responded to the bark. The man screamed […]
Give it up for Diane Gramley, prez and proponent of the American Family Association of Pennsylvania. She works hard to get her message of hate and intolerance out into the Pennsylvania heartland , be it letter to the editor or press release. She's everywhere the homos should be. Are you? Gramley sent out this snarky […]

About 56 percent of straight Americans 18 and older believe people should be […]
Hey. I'm in the City Paper this week. I wrote them a brief letter to the editor about their story on a local transwoman. They printed it. On another note, the non-discrimination dinner at Cambodican Kitchen was good fun. I met a few new ladies and learned a lot of new stuff about some old […]
From today's Post-Gazette, a letter written by Kurt Colborn of Swisshelm Park: I have to agree with Sen. Larry Craig's claim that he is not gay. People have forgotten that “gay” is a term of liberation. Being gay means having the maturity to accept yourself as you are. It also means having the courage to […]
Ah, I remember 27 (it was only nine years ago) and it sure as hell didn't look like this: But at the end of the day, I'm still going to continue to be who I'm going to be, and go to concerts like I always have, and go to have a drink with my wife […]
You may have been keeping up, via blog or email, with the ongoing debate around the local lesbian community's acceptance and inclusion of transwomen. It has been contentious and brought to light some long-standing fissures around gender identity that fall loosely along generation lines — almost a second wave v third wave debate, but not […]
An open letter from one very cool chick with the Women's Law Project … please use the email link or pick up your phone to speak up on this issue. Especially those of you who live outside of the City of Pittsburgh. Note: this legislation includes sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression. I would […]
