Oklahoma dukes it out, trans soldiers prove battle-worthy, and tight undies make everyone just go gay all of a sudden, as your AggreGAYtor buries a time capsule.
The Good
Queerbomb just has a month left to raise $5,000 to keep the event open, public, and free. Check it out.
Oklahoma gets strong words in defense of marriage during recent hearings.
The data is in on trans soldiers (they’re professional soldiers); in fact there’s good data on trans life in general, and we would do well to brush up.
The University of Minnesota and MIT both have student plans that cover reassignment surgery.
LA Pride puts trans Angelinos front and center.
Christeene made a HuffPo feature (kinda).
The Bad
“It is March, 2014, and most American evangelicals do not believe that using contraception is a sin.” This is not going to be true in ten years.
Kentucky is taking multiple routes to bypass its Attorney General’s decision not to appeal the overturning of its marriage ban.
The closet is toxic. Silence=death.
The Fugly
Uganda’s First Lady hasn’t seen a gay cow, so jailing the gays is appropriate. Also, gay sex nearly killed all the buffalo.
In similar news, Adele and tight underwear make men gay.
