Paparazzi Captures Clan McMillan @ SP

I had to share these wonderful pictures that my dear friend and master photographer JJ Goodman took of my family and me when we were partying at DJ Rascal's set at the Second Pride yesterday.

Thank you so much for the gorgeous pictures J.J!

Re-Post: Remember Stonewall (2014)

This is essentially a re-post of a post I have run the last few years, with some minor changes.

 
Let us always be proud and thankful to the trannies who finally had enough of the harassment and fought back 45 years ago on June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn. We owe you, guys and girls!

Before Stonewall
  • a person with homosexual inclinations was considered to be mentally ill, 
  • a person taking part in homosexual sexual activity was considered to be a criminal, 
  • a person suspected of being homosexual could be abused or harassed without risk of penalty - except in the most extreme cases, 
  • a homosexual parent was considered unfit to take care of his/her own children, 
  • Civil unions or same-sex marriages were unthinkable. etc., etc. 
All of us should always remember the gratitude we owe the trannies.

We must also remember that many of our brothers and sisters worldwide still live with the very real risk of
  • being murdered, incarcerated or hospitalized, abused, raped and harassed
  • losing custody of their children 
  • losing their employment 
simply for being homosexual.

Blogs With Great Second Pride Coverage

I highly recommend these four excellent blogs to complete your knowledge of what is happening at Second Pride this year. (Listed in alphabetical order.)

As the wonderful (but small) Misteltoe completely disappears in my arms I thought I would share a picture of her, so you can see what she actually looks like.

This was the first time I had the pleasure of meeting Misteltoe in-world, although we have been communicating for some years now on each others blogs.
