Coach Sappho Celebrates the Death of Prop 8 and much more
This past week has been busier than most around here. So you know my head is really spinning! Ha! No, but seriously, I’ve accomplished so many meaningful goals on my journey this week, all in the midst of the news of the demise of Prop 8 and the rise of public support for marriage equality for all! Life couldn’t be better…that’s me being as grateful as I can be, of course! 
Here’s a recap of this week’s highlights:
- I was interviewed by Rachel Hardy, LA’s Holistic Health Examiner, and quoted in her article on my reactions to the overturn of Prop 8 in California.
- Donna Lee and I interviewed filmmaker Lisa Marie Evans on Coach Sappho’s ‘GLBT Talk’ Podcast. Be sure to check out the recording and Lisa’s website. And, the good news is that Lisa is still taking video entries for her documentary until 9/1/10, so be sure to get yours in to her. She’s going to give credit to everyone she puts into the film.
- I’m actively ‘heart hunting’ for single lesbians who are ‘ready for love’ across the U.S. and specifically in the Dallas, Texas and Maryland/Washington D.C./Virginia areas right now. Don’t know if you are ready for a deeply satisfying, lasting relationship? It’s easy to take your ‘pulse’ on that right now. Just click here to take my free quiz.
Lastly, getting back to the Prop 8/marriage equality issue, I’ve been reading in the news how poorly folks are responding to recent anti-marriage equality efforts. I won’t even say the name of groups protesting equality, and I hesitated to even mention this negativity, misplaced intentions (or whatever you call it) but, I wanted to let you know that fairness and truth wins out eventually.
Glenn Beck Okay with Marriage Equality?
Interestingly, even Glenn Beck, of all people, is starting to sound rational on the gay marriage issue. Be sure you check out Bill O’Reilly interviewing Beck recently on the culture wars. Beck ‘gets it’ that this country has much bigger problems to focus on, and, perhaps some folks are just a bit too paranoid about ‘the gays’! Wow!
Why We Love Our Golden Girls – A Show Ahead of it’s Time
Did you see Betty White making the rounds on late night TV this past week? I want to thank a friend here in Ocala, Florida who shared the following classic ‘take’ from the Golden Girls. This cute, funny clip dealt ‘head on’ with the issue of marriage equality. Hard to believe isn’t it, that these lovely ladies were broaching sensitive subjects such as gay rights and marriage equality, way back in the mid 1980′s to early 1990′s.
Certainly, the Golden Girls TV show was ‘ahead of it’s time’. Who knows how many small ‘acts’ like this have added up, over the years, to create the momentum towards equality we are seeing today.
