Gutter Barbie
It is Monday morning and I am walking to work and there is Barbie laying in the gutter. It must have been one rough weekend.

October is Gay History Month
I just saw on a gay news site the October is LGBT History Month.
Don’t know how I missed that. Fortunately there is still time to visit the LGBT Month Website and learn something.
This past year I have been reading a lot about gay history. I have a stack of books that I bought at a used bookstore that I am working my way through.
The Gay Metropolis by Charles Kaiser
Stonewall by Martin Duberman
About Time, Exploring the Gay Past by Martin Duberman
Midlife Queer, Autobiography of a Decade 1971-81 by Martin Duberman
Queers in History by Keith Stern
Still on my bookshelf that I have yet to read:
Who’s Who in Gay & Lesbian History, & Who’s Who in Contemporary Gay & Lesbian History edited by Robert Aldrich and Garry Wotherspoon
Out in the Castro edited by Winston Leyland
Lost Prophet, The Life and Times of Bayard Rustin by John D’Emilio
 |
| LGBT History Month celebrates the achievements of lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender Icons. |
Another option is to check out my brief profiles of important
gay Jewish men throughout history. See here: http://guydads.blogspot.com/2009/04/remembering-gay-jewish-history.html
