Lesbians, this has not been our week. The Real L Word premiered, and we hated it. Nicki Minaj redacted her bisexuality, Miley Cyrus keeps on fake-lesbian kissing everyone and I had to do research on Danielle Staub. At least Anna Paquin said some reassuring things about her sexuality, otherwise we’d just shut this place down.
Gawker wants to know where the bisexual men are at. Silly Gawker, don’t they know there’s a double standard preventing men from ever having a sexuality in a grey area?

Also, Samoan culture has a third gender for trans women, Target accidentally got into the business of fascism, French law seems to love gender policing, more on the documentary 8: The Mormon Proposition, and there’s a new Bollywood film about Hitler?
GO Magazine recently debuted their 2010 list of 100 Women We Love. Autostraddle loves this list a lot, too, because not only does it feature tons of awesome women, but a lot of them work for us!
I’m still reeling, drunk on the freedom of Google’s Android OS. If you’re a gamer and you’ve got an Android device (or you’re considering one!), take heed of these 8 reasons to ditch the iPhone.

And because the Geekender is ostensibly for things I do on the weekend.
The violent drunk-driving bigamist stalkers in Texas had better not think about getting gay married, because THAT could turn out to be a felony. Also, we talk about putting the politics back in Pride, unsettling developments on DADT, protests over violence in Savannah, new life for the Transgender Economic Empowerment Initiative, and the Lisa Miller/Janet Jenkins custody case going back to court.

Listen up. I know the shit you’ve been saying behind my back. You think I’m stupid. You think I’m immature. You think I’m a malformed, pathetic excuse for a font. Well think again, nerdhole, because I’m Comic Sans, and I’m the best thing to happen to typography since Johannes fucking Gutenberg. Word to my brother […]
