We’ve compiled some links from around the region on LGBTQ themes. It is important to read the information and to pay attention to what your local media is sharing around LGBTQ topics. Best of all, consider submitting your own letter to the editor to your local outlet. Lutheran seminary faces leadership crisis over president’s past LGBTQ […]

I’m making a point to dive deeper into local and regional LGBTQ news coverage, from the Pgh mainstream media to the regional newspapers. Every Friday, I will share links that struck me (for good and for bad.) If you see something that should be included, please email pghlesbian @ gmail dot com.

But it was not – Pittsburgh City Paper readers picked a queer, disabled, middle-aged woman at the first blogger to […]
I’m quite flattered to be nominated in several categories in the City Paper’s Best of Pittsburgh 2017 readers poll. I’d love your vote. And, as I promised, I removed myself from consideration in the ‘Best Blogger’ category so someone else can win. So you can vote 1x/day through August 18. That’s a lot of voting […]
Nominations are open for the 2017 ‘Best of Pittsburgh’ poll hosted by the Pittsburgh City Paper. I’m asking you to not vote for me as ‘Best Local Blogger’ the category I won in 2016. Don’t get me wrong, this is not false humility. Winning is fun, excellent even. I was blown away when I was […]
