There They Go Pushing Gay Marriage Over ENDA Again

If you thought I was kidding about the Gayosphere wanting to pivot GL activism back to same gender marriage all the time in the wake of the trans free DADT passage,  peep this latest piece by David Mixner entitled LGBT Rights-An Important Year Ahead which doesn't mention any issue of importance to transpeople.

Kat Rose at ENDAblog noticed and you know I was going to have to link to it. 

Of course. I've already had my say about it.

Pimp Slapping The Rad Fems Back

Well, I've had my say about the latest hate screed from a rad fem.

Other trans blogs are chiming in as I speak.   I'll post those responses to "Bev Jo's" BS in this post.

Happy Halloween, People!


I'm back home for my first Halloween in a decade, but it also means that for the first time in nine years I'm going to miss all the fun on Hillcrest Avenue in Louisville.

In addition to scarfing up mass quantities of candy and wearing spooktacular costumes, Halloween has the rep in the GLBT community as the TBLG national holiday.

The ballroom community can trace its roots to the elaborate Harlem Renaissance era drag balls held in New York.  They used to do a big one on Halloween.   Chicago's ballroom community has its South Side roots in the Finnie's Ball that was held on Halloween night starting in 1935. 

It's the one day on the calendar when a cisgender male can put on a dress and people won't bat an eyelash at him.  Let that same cisgender male do it on the other 364 days on the calendar and suddenly it's a problem.


I've written a few Halloween themed posts on the blog, and though I'd give y'all a chance to peruse them.
