Links: Blogging for LGBT Families
The full list of links from Blogging for LGBT Families Day is at Mombian's blog, but these were the posts I read that struck me most.
Damn Straight: Not really an issue... until it is an issue, on being asked to go back in the closet by an employer (after working professionally for and with LGBT organizations), and being asked to leave when she won't.
The Den of Debauchery's Subannex - But of course, they don't call him THAT: Thoughts on the Gay Fairy and the Straight Fairy On raising an openly bisexual daughter.
Labels are for Jars: Smacked in the face by compassion and understanding
Not the Mama: One day he'll ask why On explaining to family why little Johnny will NOT in fact be joining the Cub or Boy Scouts and will be instead exposed to other youth organizations that will let his mothers participate.
Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés: Not a witch hunt -- a treasure hunt at the National Catholic Reporter Blog, no less. On practicing clinical trauma recovery at a time when homosexuals were classified as perverts, and being a part of the change that let us be (clinically, at least) Regular People. I want to read more by this woman!
Parenting Beyond the Pale: Coming out at Costco Gabriel (age 4) is very proud of his family, and wants everyone to know. I smiled.
