Portland and another bi political candidate

Sunday, May 25th, 2008

Attention Northwesterners: My fiancee and I are headed to Portland! Her fabulous film about fabulous femmes, FtF: Female to Femme — which just showed last night in San Francisco at the LGBT Center! — is showing at QDocs, the Portland Queer Documentary Film Festival, next Saturday, at 6:30 at the Clinton Street Theatre. We’re excited […]

Queer(y)ing Femme

Sunday, May 18th, 2008

To my San Francisco readers: mark your calendars for Saturday May 24th, at 7:30 p.m., because there is going to be some smart, sassy, and sexy stuff going on at the LGBT Center. My film-making partner, Kami Chisholm, is showing the US premiere of her latest short film, The Insomniacs, a butch-femme romantic comedy starring […]

London, SF, DC, and Points Inbetween

Sunday, April 13th, 2008

What a whirlwind couple of weeks it’s been — and continues to be! I got to go to the London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival, where my fiancee was showing two of her latest films, The Insomniacs and Godspeed. Then, we had a show of her films at the fabulous Femina Potens art gallery when […]

Coming and Going

Sunday, March 30th, 2008

I just had a fabulous week and I have another great one coming up, so I thought I’d share. I just got back from Toronto, where I got to visit my adorable new baby “nephew” (hi, Samuel!) and his parents, my dear friends Sly and Sophie. While I was in town, I was fortunate enough […]

Trans Women of Color, Visibility and Violence

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

Thanks to my Mom for sending me a link to this New York Times article about a transwoman in India who is doing her thing and doing it well!
At the same time, there has been a lot of violence against and murders of teens of color who transgress gender boundaries, from the student in Oxnard, […]

Great news: Bi Request is happening again in 2008!

Monday, December 31st, 2007

Bi Request is the bisexual short film program at the annual San Francisco International LGBT Film Festival, the largest and most prestigious LGBT film festival in the world. This is the festival that sets the standard for film fests on a global scale. If a film is shown at the San Francisco International, it often […]

I am (not impressed with) Beowulf

Sunday, December 2nd, 2007

Don’t see Beowulf. Despite the fact that it features (out bisexual) actor Angelina Jolie, this film is a true disappointment. I watched it with my fiancee recently, at the Imax, in 3-D, and was shocked to discover that (a.) it’s a cartoon, and (b.) Angelina’s character is voiced by someone else! I went to see […]

Four Four and More

Sunday, November 4th, 2007

My (not-so-guilty and not-so-secret) guilty little secret is that I am a devoted watcher of America’s Next Top Model. So, I was psyched to find out about Four Four, a site run by a fellow fan.
Big thanks to Kat, for helping me get my blog all nice and pretty and coordinated with the overall new […]

Planet Unicorn

Sunday, October 28th, 2007

Thanks to Violet Blue’s blog for this gem: http://www.planetunicorn.tv/.
Yesterday, I got to spend time with a group of LGBT folks who are thinking of coming to Haas School of Business to get their MBAs. The LGBT student group at Haas put on a full day of activities for the prospective students, to give them […]
