GLAAD and the Task Force Are At It Again

Sunday, September 27th, 2009

GLAAD and the National Gay & Lesbian Task Force both celebrated Bi Pride Day (aka Celebrate Bisexuality Day) this year, in full force. The big day was this past Wednesday (happy belated bi day, to my bi readers!). GLAAD even published a couple of pieces that I wrote for them, on their blog. Check it […]

If you’re in New York…

Sunday, September 20th, 2009

Run, don’t walk, to check out my friend KS Stevens’ play, Butch Mamas! It’s being performed in New York’s Bowery district — and P.S. there’s an amazing chocolatier right down the street from the theatre, if you want a little pre-show cocoa. I highly recommend both.
Butch Mamas is a comedy about, well, butch mamas. […]

Support FenceSitter Films

Sunday, September 6th, 2009

My friend Kyle Schickner of FenceSitter Films is looking for support for his next project, a series of 5-minute webisodes called “Rose By Any Other Name…”!
Kyle tells me, “It’s a comedy about a lesbian who falls in love with a man having to look at her life and slowly comes to terms with being […]

The Week of Bi-Bi’s — My Latest Article, Now on Bilerico

Sunday, August 30th, 2009

I published an article on Bilerico earlier this week. Check it out here. Titling it “The Week of Bi-Bi’s,” I wrote about my recent observations on biracial and bisexual representations in movies and on tv. Seems like there’s a lot of bi-bi going on lately, and I thought I would put in my two cents. […]

At the Movies

Sunday, August 23rd, 2009

My friend Mike Szymanski wrote an interesting article here about District 9 and The Time Traveler’s Wife. I just saw both of the movies he’s describing — and loved one of them, can you guess which one?
Have you seen either of these films? Email me and let me know what you thought…

Watch LOGO this Saturday, 8/1, at 8 p.m.

Sunday, July 26th, 2009

LOGO, MTV’s LGBT channel, is airing Bi the Way, the first ever feature-length documentary about bisexuality. Bi the Way came out last year and screened at LGBT film festivals around the world. (Yes, you read that right: first-ever, and it only came out last year.) Now it’s going to be showing on that little box […]

Fourth of July

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

I’m on my way over to the Femmethology book reading (if you’re in the San Francisco Bay Area, come join us at Pegasus Books today at 6 p.m.), but want to take a minute to share this link with you, a bisexual Fourth of July message: http://binetusa.blogspot.com/2009/07/happy-fourth-of-july.html. Independence Day is a complicated holiday, like all […]

updates

Sunday, June 21st, 2009

I was out of town last weekend, and had limited internet access (and at times, no access!), so I wasn’t able to do my weekly blog update. But now I’m back.
Bi Pride is happening in San Francisco this Wednesday, so if you’re in the Bay Area, come and join the fun! All the details […]

Websites on My Radar Screen

Sunday, June 7th, 2009

Here are a couple of websites to keep an eye on, if you’re not already a feed subscriber. These folks are setting the record straight, so to speak, with commentary on sex and gender politics. (Thanks to friends who brought these to my attention.)
Queer Subversion
Bi-Furious
And here’s a fun question for you: should I join Twitter? […]
