The Bigger Picture

With the hearings happen and decision to be made soon there is a lot of focus on Prop 8 in California, but there are other great things happening across the nation. Being a Californian I know how we can be a bit California centric so here some other state news.

Both Illinois and Vermont are moving forward in their achievement of full marriage equality.

The Bilerico Project reports:
An Illinois House committee passed a bill that would extend legal recognition and benefits limited to same-sex couples.
And a Vermont television is predicting that the Granite state will approve same-sex marriage within weeks - with or without the Governor's signature.

Bathroom Etiquette


That's right I said it... bathroom etiquette. What are the rules? When is it ok to say hi and when it is just plain awkward.

So I have been at my job for a little over five months and every time that I run into a co-worker in the bathroom I never really know how to react. For me going to the little girl's room has always been a private matter and I like my privacy. I don't want to be having a conversation with someone in the bathroom while I am relieving my self... it's just not cute. Now in bars and stuff it's different people are in and out as fast as they can so get back to the dance floor. However, at work it is different. People go into the bathroom and chat, or freshen up, and even poo. Now I know that it is a natural process and everyone does it, but girl do it at home. I do not ever do it in public I am just not that kind of girl. So when I walk into the bathroom and there is someone in the stall next to me whose shoe are obivous point away from the toilet you know they are taking a shit. Know I always try and either beat them out of the bathroom, or wait till they leave before exiting my stall. But sometimes it is just unavoidable. Like the other day I walk into my stall and there is someone next to me, so I try and hurry, but apparently so did he. We end up walking out at the same time and it's a co-work. "oh hi martin" he says very chipper and I'll I can think is you just took a huge shit... at work. Now I have only worked there for a small amount of time compared him and there was once that I could wait until I got home so I went to the next floor up and found out that there is a nice private single toilet bathroom to do your business. Is it just me or is this normal. Do most people not have a problem with pooing at work? Like just yesterday I was coming out of the bathroom and a co-worker was walking in with a NEWSPAPER! I mean really... you are going to be in there long enough to read the newspaper?!

I guess I was told once that its a great feeling to get paid to poo.

Another Push for MILK Day in California


No I am not talking about raising awareness for the need of Vitamin D or coco puffs.

California Senator Mark Leno will be reintroducing the Milk Day Bill with Best Actor Oscar winner Sean Penn by his side. The bill will establish gay activist Harvey Milk's birthday, May 22, as a day of significance in California. I was introduced before by Leno, but vetoed by Gov. Schwarzenegger (R) who said that Harvey was only a local hero in San Francisco. Since the release and great mainstream popularity of MILK the movie people were able to truly see what a great impact Harvey had on not only the gay community in San Fransisco but nationally as well. California should be proud to have had Harvey Milk as a resident and even prouder to recognize all of his accomplishments and legacy.

The 2009 Unity Conference

Sweet T: transgressing, Transforming & Transcending Sexuality in the South

The Southeastern Regional Unity Conference is an annual gathering of progressive lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, and queer identified people and their allies in the Southeast.

In generating these conversations, the Unity Conference serves to foster a progressive Southeastern LGBTIQ movement that affirms and reflects all aspects of the identities of LGBTIQ people.

Three Things I Learned Yesterday

Somehow yesterday from 6:50pm to 2:30am I managed to watch one movie at the theaters, one movie on DVD, and on movie on TV. It was completely unintended too. And I took something away from each of them.

1. I am not a boy, not yet a woman (Crossroads)
2. I needed to do this for myself (Taylor Perry's Why did I get married?, Thanks Sheila)
3. That no matter what the deed done was a person always deserves to be loved. (The Reader)
