Heels for Hope is possibly the most fun grass-roots program that occurs during Boston Pride. The fact that it isn’t part of the official Pride programming speaks volumes about Boston Pride.
Proceeds to benefit BAGLY – Boston Alliance of Gay Lesbian Youth
Please join me and many of your friends for a well-heeled evening of fun and laughs starting at 7PM at Cathedral Station. Check out some of the photos Sergio took from last years Heels for Hope. Event details here.
One week from today is PrideLights. Last year GBBC took over this program traditionally hosted the Tuesday of Pride Week in Boston – even though the event is not an “official” Boston Pride event.
This year’s program includes more than entertainment in the Plaza. If you’d like to help support the GBBC you can purchase tickets here. The outdoor tree lighting will take place at dusk.
The summer is off to a sizzling start and even if the weather has turned cooler today, later this weekend things will get sizzling hot at the Manhunt Mansion this Saturday when they host their first pool party of the season. Proceeds raised will go to Boston Blizzard.
Have a very relaxing Sunday morning and enjoy your day.
It is a short shorts selfie. He can pull off the look spectacularly.
Starting next Friday, Golden Girls Live comes to Club Cafe Boston. The 65-minute performance runs thru August 29th with two shows each week (Fridays at 8PM and Saturdays at 3PM).
The original cast from NYC in their 13th year in an All Male Drag Parody stars Peter Mac, John Mac, Peter Murphy and Jackson Phillips. Together they will entertain you with their new episode that never was “The Lost Reunion Episode” in which the girls reunite for the funeral of Dorothy’s second husband.

I love this graduating senior’s quote in her high school Yearbook. It is both snarky and right on the money (pardon the pun but I couldn’t resist).
HIV Equal is a national multimedia campaign and online magazine that aims to end HIV stigma and promote HIV testing by creating a social art movement that changes the way people think about HIV and which reopens the national dialogue about HIV. Join them at MachineBoston on Saturday, May 30th. You can learn more about HIV Equal by visiting their website at, hivequal.org.
I love a man who knows how to accessorize.
How nice it would be to wake up to this smiling face. It might even make someone as grumpy as me crack a smile in the morning.
Ab Soto is a queer artist who first came to my attention earlier this week in an article I read on HuffPost Gay and since watching this video I can’t get it out of my head. He clearly has a flair for eye-catching fashion and has more wardrobe changes than a Taylor Swift video. Check this out and get your cha cha on.
What can I say? I’m really shallow and I need a pick me up to deal with the fact that tomorrow is Monday.
Whoops… this is what happens when you move your blog posts around and don’t read what you wrote back when you first loaded the post. Tomorrow is Sunday.
Congratulations to Ireland. While official results have not been formally tabulated it appears the general referendum on granting full marriage equality rights for gay couples has been overwhelmingly voted by the Irish people (some estimates are saying by 70%).
“It is about removing discrimination. It is about removing inequality. It’s historic, and that’s why I’ll be voting yes,” Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny
While I’m still not an advocate for voting on minority rights, this is an historic milestone for a devoutly Catholic country, which only 20 years ago in 1995 legalized divorce. Issues of social justice matter to Catholics and not all Catholics see homosexuality as a sin. Gone are the days that we need to accept the phrase “Love the sinner; hate the sin.” While the US is a completely different society, I hope the results in Ireland send a chill down Conservatives backs here and we can put this issue to rest in our own country next month when our US Supreme Court (hopefully) rules in favor of marriage equality.
