It insinuates that gay couples = messed up children and that men won’t take care of their children unless they are suckered into it by marriage.
PLEASE reblog and share!
You can’t tell how people are doing on the poll page, but still.

MTV's "It Gets Better" Episode
MTV has a new show called “It Gets Better” hosted by Dan Savage, and based on his project. It follows different queer young people as they come out, accept themselves, and face other daily challenges.
The first episode just debuted, and it was lovely. One of the kids was from my city, and our queer youth group, Growing American Youth, gets a shout-out. :) Heyyy!
You can watch it...

I am writing an article about the portrayal of homosexuality in popular sitcoms and movies, and its increased presence in the media over the past year. I need a bunch of quotes, especially if you are straight, lesbian or bisexual (I’ve got a lot of gay sources already). All I need is like a…

Crap
For me, that’s strong language. New Jersey Governor Christie vetoed the gay marriage bill. Darn it, Darn it, darn it.

Anoka-Hennepin School District Changes... →
YESSSS!!!!
We’ve been waiting for this for so long. You know Michelle Bachman’s school district, the Anoka-Hennepin district in Minnesota that has had a suicide epidemic? The one where numerous gay kids killed themselves because the school environment was toxic, and the staff could say nothing about homosexuality, which ended up meaning that they didn’t protect gay kids? The one...

So, I wrote some stuff I really liked at this blog, and now it’s lost in the ether. But the way that Tumblr works, if you reblog something I write, the text that I wrote might get fully transferred to your blog.
I’m mostly talking about fairly long posts, a few paragraphs at the least, where I…

Here’s the breakdown of what you need to know:
Today’s ruling: The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 vote that Prop 8 is not constitutional. This affirms Judge Vaughn Walker’s earlier ruling that Prop. 8 violated the U.S. Constitution by denying rights to a certain group of people.

One Town's War on Gay Teens | Rolling Stone →
Like many 13-year-olds, Brittany knew seventh grade was a living hell. But what she didn’t know was that she was caught in the crossfire of a culture war being waged by local evangelicals inspired by their high-profile congressional representative Michele Bachmann, who graduated from Anoka High School and, until recently, was a member of one of the most conservative churches in the area. When...

r0bertbrowniejr:
Yesterday my mom posted a picture on Facebook of my 5 year old brother Sam wearing a pair of shoes he picked out for his first day of preschool.
She explained to him in the store that they were really made for girls. Sam then told her that he didn’t care and that “ninjas can wear pink shoes too.”
Sam went to preschool and got several compliments on his new shoes. Not one kid...

”For sale: baby shoes, never worn.”
Hemingway’s self-proclaimed “masterpiece” always inexplicably moves me. He really was a genius. What are your thoughts?
Although I’ve heard that there’s not really evidence that Hemingway actually wrote this, I really hope he did, because I love it.
“There’s a big dance at the school and Brittany [Heather Morris] and I are...”
