The AggreGAYtor: October 9

Wendy Davis gets up, Elisa Chan gets down, and the U.S. Government continues its freefall, as your AggreGAYtor cashes in.

The Good

• Senator Wendy Davis is making political hay over her support of queer rights.

• Queer film fest Polari (formerly AGLIFF) has a lineup, and we’re super stoked.

• No wonder Republicans are so desperate to shut down Obamacare: the ACA might help LGBTQ families.

• Being queer in the South might take a little extra gumption, but it’s being done, and now it’s being documented.

• France gets Europe’s first LGBTQ retirement village.

• Barilla chairman Guido Barilla is frantically courting the gay dollar after his ‘no homo’ comment fiasco.

The Bad

• Move over, TSA: Kuwait’s got gaydar and they aren’t afraid to use it.

• Domestic violence happens in all kinds of households, but some organizations are refusing assistance to queer survivors.

The Fugly

• Elisa Chan is making political hay over her disgust with queer people.

• Chris Christie: I’ve totally got gay friends, but I’m still anti-marriage.

• A Texas RV park is in hot water for having evicted a trans woman for, well, being a trans woman.
