Students at St. Charles North High School wore “Straight Pride” tshirts to school last week. But it’s fair because that’s just the other side of the argument you start by wearing gay pride tshirts which no one even did, right? No.
RENT is being revived Off Broadway in June 2011 and Riese has feelings about it, Ryan Murphy is figuring out the Kurt/Blaine sitch, Queen Latifah hovers around #ItGetsBetter, and the making of Pink’s new video.
Take Back The Night. But also, cat massage!
Canadian Thanksgiving happened on October 11, which means that Carolyn and all the other Canadians have already experienced the joys of family togetherness. Lucky for you, she documented the whole thing. Recipes included!
Forget prom — lesbians at Del City High School are being told they shouldn’t even bother showing up to graduation.
MISS OCTOBER AS EDWARD SCISSORHANDS. THAT IS ALL.
In this one, everything goes to shit. Seriously, everyone ends up unhappy. But at least there’s some sex along the way!
Two female school administrators have an affair. They break up. One threatens to kill the other, who consequently reports this threat. No word on stopping that death threat but the good news is THEY’RE BOTH GETTING FIRED. Thank the good lord b/c I was worried about how this lesbian affair might impact PSAT prep.
P!nk’s Greatest Hits Record is about to drop but my fangirl heart knows it should probably be a two-disc set with the list of songs contained in this post. This is very important.
Good news for people who REALLY NEED to see the real-life restaurant where Cat and Sam had their first date, and also for kids in Lithuania and also Harvey Milk students and gay Nascar fans and the Finnish and people who like art or Bollywood.

It’s Sunday Afternoon, do you know where your clit/orgasm/threesome is?
The OUT 100 debuts — what straight girl will make the cover? How hot is Rachel Maddow in her photo exactly – is she ‘Rachel Maddow in Iraq’ hot? Amos Mac! Chely Wright! Katie Miller! Wow. So much more. I mean you’ve just got to see this. Bang-able.
Just when you thought it was safe to register at Pottery Barn in Iowa, voters there remind us that they HATE EQUALITY, and especially the judges who uphold it with unpopular rulings. And once again we have NOM to thank.
Christ Almighty.
Fortune Feimster has been tapped as the next great lesbian comedian with Saturday Night Live knocking on her door. Fortune talks to Autostraddle about her run on Last Comic Standing, life as a celebrity personal assistant and being mistaken for Jonah Hill and Richard Simmons.
EXCERPTS ARE HARD WHEN YOU’RE TIRED. Just come get your awards and sit down.
Zero percent of teens with lesbian parents report instances of abuse; probably this means everyone should have two moms, like Riese. Also: You can get married over Skype now, Dan Choi is eloquent on Veterans/Remembrance Day, and meeting Autostraddlers and making friends will make you happy.
OK Go are notorious for making intense(ly choreographed) music videos. Their new video for “Last Leaf” was made with burned toast. Check it out:
“Can sexual orientation be changed through conscious decision-making or therapy?”, ABC’s Nightline asks in its piece on Journey into Manhood retreats. Really? Is that still a real question?
Edith Windsor had to pay crippling estate taxes when her wife died as if they were strangers because the federal government didn’t recognize them as being married. Now she’s suing on the basis that DOMA “effectively creates a tax on being gay.” Meanwhile two other lawsuits have been filed against DOMA by a Boston-based gay advocacy group. Are lawsuits the future of the gay rights movement?
