So basically I love my little sister. I think she’s the first family member to start coming out of the closet - she’s admitted to people that she has a gay sister.

Yesterday we were talking on the phone and somehow the topic of conversation drifted towards a debate that was going on in her Diversity class at college. Apparently there was some questioning of fellow (Christian) students about their somewhat bigoted views on homosexuality, and another member of the class stood up and basically started lecturing the others on a whole range of facts about gayness. It wasn’t my sister, but like her, the girl had a sister that was gay. M was getting pretty incensed herself about some of the stuff that was being said and when she was telling me about everything, it was like music to my ears.

I'm so hoping that Obama is going to end Don't Ask Don't Tell because the numbers are in and women are disproportionately dismissed under this idiotic policy.  Women make up just 14% of the military yet they account for 36% of dismissals under Don't Ask Don't Tell.  And it turns out that most were dismissed from the Air Force.  Seems Top Gun women aren't interested in Tom Cruise.

Now to the why (because I have to go there).  My knee jerk reaction as a woman who chose a male-dominated profession is that these women are under the microscope.

What about an ice cream flavor for gay women....like double couchie crunch?

One of Ben and Jerry's most popular ice creams 'Chubby Hubby' will be sold under the new name 'Hubby Hubby' for the month of September to celebrate gay marriage in the company's home state of Vermont.

Ben and Jerry's Ice cream thinks the state of Vermont's decision to issue marriage licences to same-sex couples which came into effect Tuesday is a good reason to celebrate.

Ben & Jerry's aims to raise awareness of what it calls the "importance of marriage equality." And to show support for the legislation they will serve "Hubby Hubby" sundaes in Vermont Scoop Shops throughout the month of September.

I'm moving to Scandanavia: A park near Amsterdam has unveiled information signs pointing out spots where officials say gay men are known to have sex, so visitors are not taken by surprise.

The signs "clearly indicate what is happening in each zone; also those where gay men are known to practice 'cruising'," municipal spokeswoman Manon Koffijberg said.

Cruising is a slang word used to describe the act of trawling for casual sex. "If you don't want to be confronted by a vision of that sort, the signs allow you to avoid specific areas," Ms Koffijberg said.

The De Oeverlanden park in Slotervaart, south-west of Amsterdam, is known as a place where homosexuals from all over the Netherlands and elsewhere in Europe go in search of sex partners.

Ms Koffijberg said that while having sex in public was against the law, the park has been used for this purpose for so long that it has become "gedoog", a Dutch word for tolerating unwanted behaviour.
