I really need to stop replying.. but this comment shows you know nothing.. nothing about Ru. He was part of the original club kid party movment. Back in the 80's he dressed nearly 24/7 or was in some form of gender non conforming mode. In fact, he was considered a top NYC club hostess. There are plenty of videos and…

Wrong..wrong..wrong. Drag queens, gender queers, and others who are gender non-conforming all fall under the transgender umbrella (if they wish to). The problem is that transitioning transsexuals have decided they want to co opt the entire transgender movement for themselves, and push away the genderqueers and the…

Omigod Ivy thank you..thank you thank you. This is what I've been trying to articulate. I'm queer identified. From the days when the included a wide range of identities. What I'm seeing here is the rhetoric we used to hear from the "Straight acting" contingent back in the day. Many in the transsexual community want…

But the community is attempting to tell Ru how to self-identify. If he self identifies as a "tranny" that's his right. You cannot enforce your gender politics on another person.. isn't that the whole point really? Or have we moved to the point where we want to be mainstream so bad, we are happy to censor self…

This kind of tripe usually comes from people who don't know dick about RuPaul or where he comes from. He's always been edgy from his days as a "punk rock" avant garde gender bender, to his more polished modern image. He pushed drag into the mainstream when no one else had the cajones to do it. He's had more slurs and…

Stop the presses.. 20 somethings spotted in a van smoking weed! It's a scoop.

He's lost her. He doesn't know it yet but he has. Game over dude.

I hope they don't put her jail or press serious charges. She didn't hurt anyone. It just sounds like she wanted a second chance to do it all over again. I'm not condoning it, just being compassionate.

Cut her a break. She's a real person with a real kid, who's growing up in a scary world. People grow up and change and mature. Especially after they become parents. She's looking around at the state of the world and fearful for what that might mean for her children. I don't always agree or like her.. but for…

Bullies make a kid's life hell. I don't blame her one bit. In high-school I had a notebook where I drew pictures of my bullies all being horribly tortured and murdered. A teacher found it and completely freaked out. I got in trouble, sent in for counseling... etc.. Meanwhile the bullies continued to get away their …

He's pulling some really weird social media stunts.. and I'm starting to think they are on purpose. He's a weird cat. And @FieryAntidote is right. He does remind me of that selfish, artsy & pretentious boyfriend everyone has dated at least once. But I can't seem to stop looking.

Here's the problem that I think you're overlooking. The first person to see your resume usually isn't the hiring manager. It's usually an administrator in the HR department. He or she simply glances over what comes in. Your 10-page resume won't even have the first page viewed. As soon as someone sees how long it is it…

If he did it. It's workplace sexual harassment - and jeesh you think he'd find a classier way to ask for a date.

I have the same misgivings.. especially because Mr. Egan had already filed a lawsuit over the alleged abuse 14 years ago - but failed to mention Singer at the time. If you were pressing charges against your abusers, why wouldn't you name all of them at once?

Okay can we stop tossing the word "pedophile" into this argument. Pedophiles target pre-pubescent kids for sex. So based on the evidence Mr. Singer is no more a pedophile than Hugh Hefner would be. If Singer is guilty then why wasn't he named in the original suit and criminal charges almost 15 years ago? That was an…

Ok.. I would say this. I actually read the texts between Franco and the woman in question. She was far from innocent. She's obviously an active participant in the back-and-forth conversation. It's her that encourages him to send her a photo. I really think she laid out a honey-trap for Franco. If you read the…

Wow.. I so see my mother in this woman. She worked hard all her life in a an Auto factory. Divorced, with three kids, and a less-than-responsible ex-husband. But mom made it work. She worked hard her life, just like this woman. I find it amusing that most people criticizing her (and women like her) wouldn't last a day…

Keep this in mind.. that "secure job" you have can vanish at any time. All it takes is a regime change at work, or you boss suddenly decides they don't like you. At 43 I was forced out of my job due to some administrative changes. Suddenly all the hard work I did, no longer mattered. The thing is I hated that job,…

I think Jayne is hitting a lot of points here. I'm a person of color who spent 10 years among some of the fiercest San Francisco drag queens! Within the community the use of the term "Tranny" was pretty common. There was even a long running Drag Queen event "Trannyshack" that was iconic. Also within the drag community…

My grandmother was a woman of multi-racial heritage. She was also married twice. Once to dark complexioned man and then to a man who was lighter skinned like herself. Her children ranged from chocolate color to pale ivory blonde. Growing up the one thing that bugged me were people who refused to believe I was related…
