The Bullring Comes to SP2012

On the fifth day of the Second Pride Festival The Bullring Club (url) came to Pride.

The Bullring is known mostly for it´s extremely handsome and macho patrons and today they came to Pride to party to the music of DJ Hotboy.The venue was bustling with testosterone, hairy legs and bodies and well developed muscles - with a few women in between.

DJ Hotboy was sweet enough to play a song in memory of my Ars and another SecondLife DJ who had passed away. Unfortunately the other DJ´s name escaped me. possibly because I was taken by surprise and touched.

For some reason or other I was in a foul mood so I didn't stay very long, 

"It Gets Better" in SecondLife

 

The It Gets Better Project (url) was created in first life to show young LGBT people the levels of happiness, potential, and positivity their lives will reach – if they can just get through their teen years. The project was initiated by the gay activist, syndicated sex advice columnist and author Dan Savage together with his partner Terry Miller to inspire hope for young people facing harassment.

I was happy to note, during my wanderings at the Second Pride festival sims yesterday, that this worthwhile project has now also spread into SecondLife. Although in a different format, posters instead of videos, the message resounding from them is loud and clear and will hopefully help young people in SecondLife that they are not alone and that things actually will get better.

You will find the It Gets Better booth in the Buenos Aires shopping district.

Here are a few of the individual testimonials.

Napping at the Rhino Writers

Being a pathfinder, tourist and accidental shopper at the Second Pride Festival can be rather exhausting.

So after some shopping (two beautiful necklaces and a nice t-shirt from Beefcake) I went to the Rhino Writers Group´s booth to take a leak, get a cold beer or two, take some weight off my tired feet and get a midday nap.
