So, this year I haven't responded to any of the 'would you like me to send you a card' posts. This is because I suck so much at reciprocating. I'm going to try to actually remember to send cards to my family this year and, if that works out, try to join in fannish card sending next year. Because I want to, but I'm horrible at follow-through, which ( Read more... )

Birds and Bees may be gay: museum exhibit

Geir Soeli, the project leader of the exhibition entitled "Against Nature," told Reuters: "Homosexuality has been observed for more than 1,500 animal species, and is well documented for 500 of them."

Also, on a different note, Supernatural should totally have a Jossverse alum in the third episode of every ( Read more... )

So, over Christmas, I caused some doubts in my brother's mind regarding homosexuality. He brought up Leviticus, said that there had to be a reason that it was considered wrong. And I agreed with him (this tends to throw people a little). I said that, yes, there was absolutely a practical reason not to have men sleeping with men or women with women ( Read more... )

So, today is National Coming Out Day.

On this day, I'd like to mention that I've been averaging a Kinsey 4 recently (if I remember the scale right). More attracted to the womenfolk than the menfolk, at the moment, though still highly attracted to some very pretty guys.

Also, _par_avion, the Dead Zone dvds have arrived. Now, the real question is, how long do I ( Read more... )

The movie Soldier's Girl originally aired on Showtime a while back -- I can remember seeing ads for it back when I was watching QaF with jic, so a couple of years ago, really. Anyway, I noticed that jic had it in her dvd collection and decided to check it out.

I've since rewatched it twice, and one of those times was with jicIt's a really good movie. It's ( Read more... )

And so, the evidence keeps piling up that homosexuality is natural, not an artificial construct of society and not a sickness and not a choice.

Most recently (mentioned first by earis), it was announced that the celebrated swan couple of Boston dubbed 'Romeo and Juliet' are, in fact, a lesbian couple. And the picture of them is adorable, btw. I am ( Read more... )

It's a Merchant-Ivory film that came out in 1987.

Maurice is a rather beautiful story. It's about love and about denial and about acceptance. Plus, guys kiss and there are instances of full-frontal nudity. Plus, Hugh Grant (who does a little kissing but, alas, no nudity). And a really gorgeous pair of endings, one thrillingly happy and the other ( Read more... )

You know, this movie (Back to the Future 2) is actually pretty damn slashy. The 'love interest' is inconsequential - hell, she spends almost the whole movie knocked out. The big important events are always shared between the doc and Marty. There's a lot of emotion there. And the ending of this movie has Marty hovering over the Doc, who's fainted, ( Read more... )

I adore this movie. It's so... creepy, touching, and thoughtful.

More on the Gay Penguins.

How do Wendell and Cass have sex?

They're doing the same thing as a male and female would, though obviously not producing any eggs. But the copulation is the same. I can give you specific details ...

Go ahead. Penguins are birds and all the sexual organs are on the inside of their bodies -- it's called the cloaca. The ( Read more... )
