Comment on Breaking: CA Court Declares Same Sex Marriage Ban Unconstitutional by TrishMifflin

“Let us realize the arc of the moral universe is long but it bends toward justice.” — Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

I don’t think LGBTQ people can let up for a minute in the fight for equal rights and protection, but the tide and time are on our sides.

Your dad is probably beaming with pride for both his Giants and his daughter.

Comment on More Hateful Violence by lyssa

This news saddens and brings tears to my eyes and anger in my thoughts and a full range of other strong emotions for this late-in-life TG (newly aware). I feel I must do something for my unknown but ‘sister kin’. But not sure what or how. I still struggle to bring myself out in public and its hard to see another life taken in hate. This really must stop. It breaks my heart.

Please…everyone…be SAFE! speak to and teach your TG friends if you have to. Encourage them to help spread the word. Make sure our young are aware and careful.

With Love
Lyssa

Comment on “I would never do anything like that.” by TrishMifflin

Wow … I’m only up to page 4, and I’ve already had to stop reading for a while. Poor? Somewhat sickly? Somewhat socially awkward? Effeminate? Bullied? Oh, this story is pressing every one of my triggers. It’s just going through me like a knife and bringing everything from my childhood back.

Comment on Komen News: Not So Fast by elainezfw

I really don’t care whether Komen funds PP or not. It’s their money, and they can choose how to allocate it for whatever reason they choose.

BUT (you knew it was coming, right?) the reason they were presumably giving money to PP was for the cancer screenings that PP provides. IF Komen suddenly chooses to defund PP, then Komen had damned well better be telling those who have supported it in the past where they’re going to be sending money to replace the screening programs that PP supplied. Not to do so tells the underprivileged who benefited from PP’s programs, “We don’t care if you get screened or not.”

Welcome Back Kotter was one of my favorite shows. I’m saddened by Mr. Hegyes’s passing.

Comment on How Beautiful Is She? by PGies

I think I know which model that is (there’s another image of her with her legs crossed while smiling?)

I am happy that you are happy. However I have noticed that by including non-skinny women as models, the fashion / model industry have created another…what’s the word? Fetish? Archetype? Basically cisgendered white female models.

Nothing against this or any cisgendered white female models of course, but by doing this I feel the industry has created a new hurdle.

I really hate to disagree with you but after very intensive research and discussion with doctors the fetus are female until the gender cycles begin ……. at leash that is what the medical profession says
