i took you by the hand and we stood tall.: Unpopular opinion: I don’t want Kurt to just hand Blaine the flowers and let him go off to take the lead.

Not because it’s wrong for Blaine to audition for it or to get it.
Not because it’s wrong for Blaine to want something for himself or to get it over Kurt.

Everyone's like, "I love the new writers" and "I...
I hate everything about Will and him singing Fix You (probably to Emma, and that is just not something I think I can take without exploding into rage) and Quinn’s storyline (why the fuck should it matter how she looks? Why would any of the people who’re concerned for her mention her appearance?) and the whole “if half your chromosomes are mine, I’m your parent” crap...

Gaga meets with Obama about bullying →
gaywrites:
On Sunday night, Lady Gaga attended a fundraiser with President Obama and discussed LGBT bullying and teen suicides with him and his staff. Earlier she pledged she would meet with Obama to talk about Jamey Rodemeyer, the most recent in a yearlong string of bullying-related suicides.
From the Advocate:
During a question-and-answer session after the president spoke, Gaga thanked...

The Lion King: Was it JUST good, or *feminist*...
feministdisney:
Feminist Review of The Lion King Since someone asked me to ;) I’m going to try out doing a rating system and see how it goes.
Overall FeministDisney Rating: **, 2/4 stars (see bottom for specific categories that feed into this)
So the Lion King is an interesting movie to pick apart. I think when it comes to anthropomorphized casts, it’s almost more difficult, at first, to...

Question: Will Quinn be meeting her daughter soon on Glee? —Cindy Ausiello: Considering the fact that Idina Menzel (a.k.a. the kid’s adoptive mother, Shelby) is returning for a major arc, I think it’s probably a safe bet that Quinn (and possibly baby daddy Puck) will cross paths with their daughter at some point. But the $1 million...

I am not joking guys, I am not.
I think my step-dad will seriously kick me out of the house, and if not I don’t think I can be here.
I need to know asap because he said he would shut off the internet.
I live near Aurora/Naperville (40 miles away from Chicago) and have no access to transport.

Born This Way, and Reborn That Way: why are we, in...
maishaparadox:
In the LGB and sometimes T and Q world, there is a rhetoric of identity stasis: I’ve always been this way. I was born gay and I will always be gay. It’s an understandable reaction to the dismissive phrase so often lobbed at us from the normative world: it’s just a phase.
It’s just a phase and its companions you’ll grow out of it and I felt the same way when I was your age are...

Lady Gaga. Just. Stop it.
Does anyone else feel this whole Jo Calderone thing is her being flippant with queer and trans* identity (I originally used appropriating, but realized her actions were different that from what I read about them) so she can piggy back on her audience based on her “radical activism”? I’m not sure that’s what it is or her intent or whatever...
