SCOTUS clears the way, Methodists work on getting their minds right, and GLAAD hosts another award, as your AggreGAYtor picks at the labels.
The Good
SCOTUS just pulled a DOMA-level just-short-of-goalpost decision that could lead to national marriage equality. And Thea probably told Edie, "You did it again, honey!"
A pregnant Texas lesbian just put a thumb on the scales for marriage rights.
The Bad
Religious homophobia and religious science denial go hand in hand.
Methodists continue to vacillate over marriage equality.
GLAAD’s mission might need an update.
The growing number of LGBTQ retirees are facing shrinking options.
The Fugly
People are responding to the recent SCOTUS ruling.
