You Said It: Every American Deserves the Right to Marry

An email was received regarding our post on the recent victory for the LGBT community in California, saying that denying lesbians, gay, bisexual and transgendered people the right to marry was unconstitutional.

In Every American Deserves the Right to Marry, a news article of the Million for Marriage petition put together by the Human Rights Campaign, received some negative feedback that I feel the need to address, especially considering the woman who sent this email did not leave her correct email address in order for me to reply personally and so, our ‘letter to the editor’ section, You Said It was born!

This, in conjunction with our first edition of You Said It, is an open call for letters from you, the readers, to express your positive …

Every American Deserves the Right to Marry

America came one step closer to achieving equal rights for all people when California declared that refusing gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered people the right to marry was unconstitutional. Since this remarkable day in LGBT history, many couples have been married and have shared in the experience of vowing to love and to cherish each other in front of their friends and families and for the first time in California, their marriage will be legal in the eyes of the law.

With every day that we celebrate this victory for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgendered couples, anti-LGBT have been working to deny benefits to LGBT couples on both state and federal levels. In order to make sure that ignorance and hate doesn’t win this battle over true equality for all Americans, …

Billy Ray Cyrus Clears Up Some Controversy

Just about everyone who hasn’t been living under a rock for the past few months have heard about the Miley Cyrus controversy when it came to her photo shoot for the June issue of Vanity Fair, photographed by Annie Leibovitz.

Many people were outraged by the sexuality implied in Miley Cyrus’ famous picture of her wrapped in a sheet and her back bare. While many (including myself) see nothing wrong with the picture itself, the incident is still receiving mass attention and the masses want to know what her father, infamous Achey Breaky Billy Ray Cyrus, who co-stars with Miley on the hit Disney television show Hannah Montana, has to say about the picture and how it has been received.

On NBC’s Today show, Billy Ray …

Costumes for Every Party and Occassion

While Halloween is still a few months away, it is never too early to start planning; whether it’s costumes, party planning or home decorating, Halloween is the best time of the year–Or so was the motto where I was raised with a Halloween-obsessed grandmother that passed her love of Halloween onto me.

One key note about Halloween is that once September hits, all party stores go all out with decorating, carrying house decorations that by the time October rolls around, they don’t work anymore because of everyone “testing” the product out to see if it talks, plays spooky music, growls or cackles. To ensure that everything works and you get the costume, decorations and party favors and decorations as well as the time to effectively put everything together, a lot of people have turned to shopping online.

One of the most important things to take …

Mischa Barton and Her Many Ruffles

Mischa Barton strolled into the premiere of M. Night Shyamalan’s newest movie, The Happening, wearing a silver, multi-tiered dress of ruffles and a pair of black one-strap heels.

All I can say about this frightening look is Mischa, please fire your stylist. You will excel in the long run, and while you’re at it, if you did your makeup yourself, stop and if your makeup artist did it, fire them too. As a woman who is usually dressed to impress, you can tell something is terribly wrong when she goes out in public to something she knows will be a photo op to begin with, wearing a dress that she could easily fit two other women into it with her and yes, a lot of ruffles. The dress makes her look as …

Babeland Knows Women

When you think of sex shops, most often you’re probably thinking of shady-looking shops off the corner of a highway with a large “Do not come in here unless you are over 21 years of age” sign on the front of an entrance that looks more like a garage door. These shops are also the ones that have those creepy private booths in the back that most definitely cannot be too hygienic, given what men do in there. These are the sex stores that are targeted more towards men and of course, are the standard because only men like sex, right? Wrong!

The success of these types of shops can only be measured by the amount of competition surrounding them, which in most cases aren’t many, if any at all. If you live …
