    SEATTLE PRIDE, Sunday, June 28th - Dianna, SBWN
     
    This years theme is Peace, Love and Equality.  If you have a poster sign or 
    Tshirt you'd like to wear on theme or share please do, but it's not required.
     
    We are meeting at 10:45 at 4th and Madison as number 116 in the parade line.  
    We are behind Emerald City Softball and a bears camping group called Northern 
    Xposure.  The parade ends at Denny on 4th avenue. There is an announcer on 4th 
    and Bell who will stop our group for a second and talk about each parade group 
    briefly.  We have our SBWN banner and a Bi flag to carry for anyone interested.  
     
    BiNet is signed up with us, but am not sure they will be able to bring their 
    banner.  If you are interested in helping to carry their banner, in addition to 
    ours, please email me off list.  I am hoping for volunteers. Right now we have 
    around a dozen people who have said they are coming, but many Binet members 
    will be out of town, so we can use the help.
     
    WEAR COMFORTABLE SHOES or at least bring some if you are a fashion diva.  Bring 
    sunscreen, or a hat and/or sunglasses.  Water and a snack is important.  We 
    have Bi buttons to wear and pride will be selling buttons to raise money for 
    the remaining pride debt, so bring a little cash, too for those.
     
    Bus or walk in, or have someone give you a ride and drop you off a few blocks 
    from 4th and Madison.  There is construction on nearby streets and no parking.  
    If you follow the numbers of the floats once you get to fourth, we are easy to 
    find as number 116.
     
    The parade will not be televised as of yet, but they will videotape and 
    webstream.  Bring a camera if it's fun for you.
     
    Parade protocol:  Ignore protestors (if there are any), walk at an easy pace, 
    but don't leave gaps between the groups.
    Don't throw anything.  If you want to walk close to the crowd and hand out our 
    cards, that's fine and fun.
    If you want to yell, whistle, yoodle, whatever,  this is your chance.  The 
    crowds love us and we get cheers all the way through the city if we start the 
    crowd cheering.  Several of us have talked about having a party at someone's 
    house nearby after we are done marching.
     
    It's going to be really fun.  Hope to see you there!

    Michael Musto: "Are Bisexuals Real?"
    Michael Musto columnist for the Village Voice has come out with a bi-phobic, anti-scientific column titled Ever Meet a Real Bisexual? questioning the legitimacy of bisexuality.

    "Everyone always says they're bisexual, blabbing on and on about how "sexuality is fluid, and I don't really like labels"--but usually I find these are just gay men who are afraid to come out. I know there are real bisexuals out there--mainly because I've heard that there are--and I do think it's a lovely idea to actually crave sex with people regardless of gender. I'm just wondering how real a phenomenon this is, as opposed to a smoke-and-mirrors coverup designed to keep antsy gays in the closet.

    Most of the guys I know who say they're bisexual end up doing Bette Davis impersonations after a few drinks, and when you invite them to an all-girl bar, they get excited, thinking you mean Splash. But do you know anyone who REALLY is equally attracted to both men and women and effortlessly glides between those two dating pools without a second's thought or self-consciousness? If so, do you ever suspect they're full of shit?"


    Suggesting bisexuality is a phenomenon, or that bisexual men are closeted liars is offensive and outright wrong!

    Contact Michael Musto and tell him bi-phobia has no place in the Village Voice.

    Hi there

    I'm new on this list and I'm kind of confused. Is this a bisexual poet and songwriters list or did I somehow get on the wrong page? Anyway, I'm a bi woman and I'm interested in talking to other bisexuals. I'm a poet too but I don't have any bisexual poetry to share at the moment. I did this video recently about how lonely I sometimes feel as a bisexual in a straight world.

    South Africa National Party Seeks to "Rehabilitate Gays"
    The revived National Party in South Africa will allow gay and lesbian members to serve, but says that the government will help to "rehabilitate" them. They are also strongly against the constitution allowing same-sex marriages. It is a shame that the NP is thinking of itself above science which shows that homosexuality is natural and cannot be altered, attempts to "rehabilitate gays" fail.
