Angie's Bad-Ass Leg 

Soon enough Ms. Jolie will be nothing but a walking skeleton on the arm of Brad Pitt and people will still mock her: "Oh look at her showing off her femur and tibia!"

Gender Confessions 
When I was young there were girls and there were boys. You were one or the other. I first realized I had feelings for women at a very young age. I did not know what a lesbian was.

Love You?     

Whether it comes out of my mouth or anyone else's "love you" has always bothered me. Something (or someone) is missing. Its as if the heart is engaged. Where's the "I"?  What's the problem? When it comes to words and how we use them, the Buddhist teacher Yvonne Rand comes to mind...

Electoral Dysfunction(ed)

It has been twenty years since that Year of the Woman thing. No one would ever tell who she was.  And they announced it in late June, so it wasn't even a full year. At only three months into the year, I propose we name this year The Year of the Woman Legislator (YOWL)... Read More
