A Not So Sleazy Time at Sleaze Ball..
Last weekend started with an Eire of Excitement, for the time had come. It had been years in the making and I was about to take the leap. To venture where I had not ventured before (and there are very few of those places) and break my Sleaze Ball Cherry. That’s right I headed to my first Sleaze. Now let’s just say I was a tad excited, I was anticipating something similar to the Mardi Gras parties...

Hating Hetero Slammed by Homos
This is the Bumber Sticky which has caused outrage in the Queensland town of Gympie. News.com reports of Ron Owen was the driver of a vehicle which openly displayed this bumper sticket outside of a local government building in Queensland. And now Owen will be owing plenty.. to a couple a fearless dykes.
3 women have taken Owen to caught and won after being offended by the bumper sticker and the...
Dyking it Dictionary Style...
I first came across Urban Dictionary several years ago when working crazy night shifts until 5am. Urban Dictionary was used to entertain me at 3am when office cricket became boring and sleep was so very far away.
In its simplest form Urban dictionary is user based content site in which individuals both submit and edit content. Namely that of defining words.
I guess the simplest way to look at...
One Hetero for the Homos..
Brad Pitt has announced he will donate $126 thousands dollars towards the gay marriage campaign in the California. The donation comes ahead of a November 4 vote in the state in which voters will be able to decide if gay marriage should remain legal. The vote is being tabled under Proposition 8 which means if passed the constitution will be changed to reflect the same old howardesk rhetoric that a...

This Dyke Doesn't Do DVD's
Frustrations. We all at time feel frustrated whether its from things that occur beyond our control or our set plans are turned upside down. Sometimes we even feel frustrated with ourselves.
A few things in this world really frustrate me. One in particular is venturing to the video store.. and not only that the whole process of hiring and then watching a video especially if the said dvd then...
Lindsay’s Lesbian Liaison’s…
Ok now its time to admit it I am an entertainment section whore… that’s right everyday I sit there at lunch with all good intentions of going to the gym or reading something insightful.. However rather than indulging in some sort of constructive activity. Everyday I find myself scanning the entertainment section of such informative news sites as www.smh.com.au and www.news.com.au. I relish in...
The Road Not Taken..
okay… despite all this rambling opinionated rants of late. i decided to share with you one of my favourite poems of all time. This poem was written way back when, in 1916 and i first discovered back in 1998 and it has never left me. Written by Robert Frost this poem is essentially thought to have one of two meanings one literal and one ironic. The irony in the poem is based upon the last two...
Things that make you go hmmm....
Whilst Surfing the vast array of gay and lesbian media sources this evening in search of some vital, news breaking, life changing story… i discovered something much more self indulgent that i thought i would share with you all..
Back when i started this blog several weeks ago i made the following post. And this evening i discover this on same same.com.au posted 11 days after my initial...

3 Reasons Why the latest blog by Amber Petty is a...
Firstly the surprising title of the latest dishing from Amber Petty is “Why Fake Lesbians Turn me off” okay call me slightly dumbfounded by im pretty sure lesbians in general would probably turn her off. Now realistically I cant speak for what goes on in the closed doors of the Petty household. But Amber is an out and proud hetero and as such I doubt that lesbians fake or not would not do much for...
Is no news better than lesbian news
Here I sit… a little bit bored and a bit miffed. Whilst looking for some interesting, world changing breaking news in the lesbian world to report on I discovered this.
If you go to google news and type in lesbian here is what you get….
40 stories relating to a woman in America who was ejected from a federal building for security for wearing a lesbian.com t shirt…
29 stories relating to Lindsay...
Gay Marriage becomes a Hallmark Holiday!
That’s right Hallmark is releasing a set of four cards specifically designed for gay marriages, commitment ceremonies etc. Proving yet again that a pink dollar is a lucrative dollar. This comes on the back of hallmark last year releasing coming out cards. (I know I wasn’t going to get one of those from my mother when I came out). Anyway this all got me thinking so far the four cards released are...
Channel 9 Seeking Gay Newlyweds??
Channel 9 is on the hunt in their new show ‘Here come the Newlyweds’ for yet another token gay or lesbian couple. Ignoring the tokenistic gesture of yet another reality tv show to be inclusive and include a minority group ( see previous posts).
Something else is fishy in this.
Now channel 9 will have to be looking for a gay or lesbian couple who have either married overseas (hmm maybe they...
Going for Gay Gold
Okay, enough of the slander, propaganda and perpetual rants.
This post i shall be positive.
Its time to get your arm chairs ready and your loud and proud cheering voice out, as Aussie Olympic Driver Matt Mitcham takes to the pool this Monday.
Out and proud Matt came out in a big way earlier this year and is being heralded as the only gay in the Aussie village in Beijing.( although Im not...
The Great Closet of the Beijing Games
As our Olympians compete in Beijing this week they should remember not take one thing with them. A DVD of the critically acclaimed film directed by Chinese born Ang Lee, Brokeback Mountain. It along with a host of other films directed towards a gay and lesbian audience are banned in China.
In addition to this whilst Aussies sit back and watch countries rarely heard of compete in sports rarely...
Pink is the New Black!
Is Pink the New Black?
This week David Jones announced that pink is the new black and how right they were. Especially when considering pink is the colour commonly associated with gay and lesbian community. If pink is indeed the new black then i want to crawl back into my nice alternative lifestyle and attempt to remain being one out of ten… not one out of five or one out of 3… those...
Pub or Protest
Protest or Pub….
This Sunday marks the 4th annual (I’m not sure that 4 years is really something to brag about, but hey!) National Day of Action March for Same Sex Marriage. The march starting at Taylor’s Square is designed to show Rudd that the gay community isn’t in favour of him regurgitating Howard’s “marriage is a union between a man and a women” stance.
A few things...
