GLBT rights resources

[emmagrant01]

The Human Rights Campaign is a great organization that promotes GLBT equal rights. If you aren't on their mailing list or a member, you should consider it, because it's a great way to get involved in these important human rights issues.

They have an interesting new interactive resource for talking about GLBT issues with family, friends, and co-workers. There are some good ideas there for responding to comments people might make. They make it sound a lot easier than it is, of course, but it's still an interesting read.

They are promoting it with an ad campaign called Tom, the Token Gay Friend, and they have a selection of the ads on the website. They're pretty funny and feature a guy trying to engage his straight friends in conversations about GLBT equality issues -- and failing miserably. They're kind of fun to watch. :-)

Thanks for the link. The adds are pretty funny in an odd "gee that happens when I bring things like this up with my mother" kind of way.

On a different note, I remember you posting about doing p0rn research. I ran across a site that has some of the most amazing stuff on it. You have to pay for the movies but you can still see pictures and man... @.@ (and I mean that in a good way.) Let's just say I paid.

If you want to know about it I can post you a link here or email it to you. I'm not one to pimp this kind of thing usually.

Hope things are going ok for you sweetie.

W00t! Porn is good. Feel free to send that URL my way! ;-)

Yes, things are good right now. I've let go of some stuff that was causing me a lot of pain (let go for a few months, at least -- I should post an update elsewhere on that) and I'm SO much happier for it. :-)

Thanks for asking!
