Der Spiegel posts a fascinating interview with former Catholic theologian David Berger: Berger: Ever since Pope Benedict XVI, at the latest, you have to be anti-modern to have a career in the Catholic Church. I criticized the relatively progressive theology and left-wing church policy of Karl Rahner. That is how people noticed me. Because I […]

Correcting the Record for Porno Pete
My husband and I have never had a threeway with a “stranger,” Porno Pete. But if you prefer to picture the two of us getting with hot, sweaty, well-hung strangers when you’re drafting a post/rubbing one out/living vicariously though us, go for it. As for my marriage—my monogamish marriage—it’s lasted twice as long as Ronald […]
It Gets Better: The Prime Minister
Holy shit—color me shocked, floored, and grateful. And this is the leader of the conservative party in the UK. Try to picture a Republican politician making an IGBP video—not one that I’m aware of has—much less the leader of the GOP. But I have to say… David Cameron isn’t the first straight politician who has […]
What Happened After Glenn Beck and I Decided To Go Get Pregnant
Glenn Beck has a new book out and a lot folks think the cover art for Glenn’s new book—a picture of Glenn, Glenn’s co-author, and a little boy whose face Glenn is about to chew off—makes Glenn’s new book look like a memoir about a gay couple adopting a kid together. That’s Glenn’s book on […]

I have […]
A Very Special Episode of Glee
Dave has his recap here, but I missed the very special episode of Glee that addressed anti-gay bullying—because I make a point to miss every episode of Glee (and every episode seems to be a very special episode). Anyway it sure sounds like they screwed the pooch. When Mr. Schuester, the glee club advisor, sees […]
FACT: Lesbians Don’t Hit Their Kids!
And I mean NOT AT ALL! So there’s this study, right? And it’s by the National Longitudinal Lesbian Family Study (NLLFS), okay? And get this—it’s the longest-running study ever conducted on American lesbian families (now in its 24th year). And guess what they found out?! The paper found that none of the 78 NLLFS adolescents […]
Gleegasm: Hangin’ With a Crip
You guys, before we talk about last night’s Glee I have a confession to make: I have never been kissed. Tony Starlight’s eat yer heart out! Actually, that’s not true. What I meant was I have never seen the film Never Been Kissed. No, that’s not true either. I saw it with my mom when […]
