I lost track of who originally linked to what, so I can’t credit them properly. But thank you to whoever they all were, anyway! Filed under “another reason I’m proud to be a homeschooler”: California court rules that private school can oust lesbian students. I do understand that it’s a private religious school and that […]
Bisexual Species: Unorthodox Sex in the Animal Kingdom: Scientific American
This could have gone in my last post, considering Porter’s life ;-) Thanks to Scott Bragg for the link. Bisexual Species: Unorthodox Sex in the Animal Kingdom: Scientific American … as many as 1,500 species of wild and captive animals that have been observed engaging in homosexual activity.

Civil Rights Win in Florida
Months ago, I posted about Ponce de Leon High School in Florida banning the wear or display of any kind of gay pride symbols or words, claiming that they indicated involvement in an “illegal organization.” I later found out that the problem started last fall when a lesbian student complained that she was being harassed.

Rainbow Stickers = Gang Affiliations? Right
Yeah, I hear there’s a real problem with queer street gangs these days, tagging everything in sight with those damned rainbows. ACLU sues Florida school for barring Pride gear Administrators at Ponce de Leon High School stated that students’ wearing rainbow stickers could mean that they are members of an illegal organization.… An unidentified student was […]
Procreate or else!
Ok—if heterosexual marriage is so sacred because it takes a man and a woman to procreate, those het couples had best be proving that’s why they’re married, right?

Hey, You — Yes, You, All You GLBT People
