Will you Stand Up! for your LGBT friends?

Remember the last Irish anti-bullying ad? This one is just as amazing. If you connect it with your Facebook, it’s personalised.

Does it matter if we're born this way?

Just a blog post about all the bullshit surrounding what Cynthia Nixon said about how she chose to be gay. 

Excerpt:

You know, if someone turned to me tomorrow and said, “Hey, great news, Jacq, I can make you straight,” I’d punch their fucking lights out. I’m happy being queer. I’m not very happy with the world around me, but I’m happy with me, and my marriage and my life. Why would I change that? I wouldn’t care if they had empirical evidence of an out and out “cure” for the gay. I don’t want it. I’m making that choice right now. Nothing to do with how I was born. Everything to do with not thinking that being queer is a bad choice to make.

There's Something Queer

A good buddy of mine tries to hash out what we mean when we identify as “queer” instead of all the other possibilities, and why it’s important that there be a Q in LGBTQ. 

Well worth a read.
