Gaga gags on gay ban; US military nurse wants job back; the world will end; homosexuality will be legal; and B&Bs won’t let you

21 Sep

Lady Gaga not only offers the opportunity to be creative with headlines, but she is also out there to fight for our equal rights. Earlier she announced she would become a priest in order to marry gays on stage. Now she has rallied against the US ban on gays in the military.

If she does gag, then former Major Margaret Witt might be able to help. She’s a lesbian who lost her job in the US military when they found out that she was indeed gay. Now she wants her job back, and she’s gone to court to get it.

But if she does, get it back I mean, the world will descend into anarchy and chaos, and little children will possibly cry. That’s what the religious right in the US is asserting. As if that was new.

Thought if the world is ending because of teh gays, they might want to have a little chat with republican state senator John Brueggeman in Montana who wants to bring Montana into the 21st century by removing language from the Montana laws that forbids homosexuality.

And if jobs in the US military, or the romp in Montana, is too much of an effort and you want to get away to, say, a B&B in the UK you should know that 13 percent of Bed & Breakfasts in the country won’t let you sleep in the same bed as your partner.

Lady Gaga to marry gays; Tea Party wants No Gays; Texas bans gay divorce; and Castro blames himself

31 Aug

Lady-Gaga_2 The American entertainer Lady Gaga is a woman of many talents, and now she wants to add one – the ability to marry gay people on stage. To be able to do this, she is reportedly studying to become an ordained minister in California.

While Lady Gaga prepares to marry ‘em on stage, the Tea Party Movement in Ohio is planning to keep ‘em separate but equal. Gays that is. In fact, according to the email sent out to prospective candidates in the state, they seem somewhat obsessed with the gays (pdf). The organisation “Freedom Institute of Erie County” spends a lot of time decrying the moral outrage of equal protection under the laws in the United States.

Onward to Texas, where we find two kinds of people – steers and eternally married queers. Should the Tea Party Movement in Ohio not be able to stop Lady Gaga’s stage gay marrying, you can go to the long horn state to enjoy that gay divorce is illegal. Two Dallas men married in Massachusetts, where gay marriage is legal, can’t be divorced in the state, the 5th Texas court of Appeals ruled the other day.

And finally, the 84-year old Fidel Castro blames himself for ruining the gay scene in Havana during the 1970s. During those troubled times, gay people were locked up in labour camps and persecuted by the communist regime there.
