In the TV series, “Community“, the local community college, Greendale, tries to come up with the perfect mascot. However, attempting to be all-inclusive, and in no way favourable towards any one ethnicity or gender, they create the simultaneously bland and creepy “Greendale Human”. To me, this is a pertinent response …
There is, I think, nothing quite as sad in the GBLTI community, as a homosexual who believes in keeping the status quo and insists we have “enough” rights. Over the last few days I’ve been seeing more friends post messages on Facebook to the extent of: If you don’t support …
Australia, where we believe in a fair go for everyone! Well, unless you want to get married to someone of the same sex. Australia, where we believe in a fair go for all heterosexuals! (GLBTI are second classers.) Well, unless you’re an indigenous Australian under the auspice of the Northern …
In The Age: Labor’s Right slams gay reform, the right leaning faction of the Labor party finally reveals that it doesn’t really care about representing the people, just some people – presumably the people who agree with it.

Over at Crikey in December, @pollytics wrote yet another one of his fascinating summaries of polling information – this time on the topic of same-sex marriage. It’s a fantastic, in-depth analysis of the polls, and I’d highly recommend you have a good read of it. For those wanting the quick …
According to the Sydney Star Observer, the Australian Christian Lobby (ACL) is getting its holy/frilly knickers in a twist over continued and growing support for equal marriage rights for same sex couples. The latest nuttiness, covered in “Christian Lobby ‘getting desperate’“, runs along these lines: ACL claims if marriage is …
I’m sometimes amazed that illogical arguments can be made to justify nonsensical beliefs that discriminate against others while still keeping a straight face.
