31 May 2009
Had a gig last night (The 'Rebel' Awards) and hanging out today. Perfect, glorious weather for the parade. But I did feel a little sorry for The Cheeky Girls, who ended up at the very very back of the parade, with not a sinner behind them. Or any music on their float. I felt so bad for them I walked behind them for a few minutes and took photos. But those girls are troupers - they kept on smiling and waving!

Travelers do the best weddings - hands down, no contest. And they do the best First Holy Communions. Of course, lots of people sneer, because they think they're tacky and over-blown. But those people are dead inside.
I love em! Of course I do. I'm a huge mannish drag queen! I love the almost pagan quality of them. (I'd love them even more if they actually were pagan) They remind me of the kind of colourful, over-the-top, traditional celebrations we see and love in other countries, so why do we sneer at our own? The lavish expense also comes in for a lot of patronising criticism - from people who themselves spend lavish amounts on everything from designer clothes to golf memberships, to 'tasteful' weddings.
Being a Traveler kid is no bed of roses - especially being a Traveler girl. So if she wants to be a princess for a day, then I say "Fair play to ya, Bernie!". People need to quit the patronising sneering and get out the camera. Their missing all the fun.
"I made the first trip over to Liverpool to get the dress made then, and it was the week before the Communion that I got the dress," says Tracey.
"I got it made with diamond horseshoes all over the dress, and the hat went with the dress then.
"She's a big fan of horses, so I decided to get a carriage.
"And we saw the Jordan carriage and loved it," she added.
"I wanted the pumpkin carriage and I was trying so hard but I couldn't come across the carriage in England.
"Eventually I got it in Dublin.
"I wanted a crown on top of the carriage because Lolita's dad got her a Rolex which also has diamonds on it."
But there's another reason to love this story of a Traveler girl's lavish First Communion - her name is Lolita !!! That's not a name you hear anymore! Bloody Nabokov ruined a perfectly good name. Well, ruined it for everywhere except Co Longford apparently.
My gay Chris dug up this quote from Nabokov:
"I am probably responsible for the odd fact that people don't seem to name their daughters Lolita any more. I have heard of young female poodles being given that name since 1956, but of no human beings."
Well, he'd never been to a Traveler First Communion on Longford obviously.

They are in desperate need of my glamour, and you know me... I'm a giver. Try not to break anything while I'm gone.

Dame Edna was on Jay Leno's show, along with recently-out lesbian comic Wanda Sykes. Not that Jay or Wanda got a word in!

Jamaica has some real problems. First of all, it's one of the most violently homophobic societies on the planet, where gays are routinely beaten in the street, and indeed murdered.
And now 'daggering', a dubious new 'dance' craze, that essentially involves trying to fuck girls to death, is sweeping the straights.
On the upside, the craze has moved into the bedroom, and now cases of 'fractured penises' have trebled.
“During very rigorous intercourse the man can hit the woman’s pubic bone and sustain a fracture. There is a loud popping sound, excruciating pain and swelling.”
In this first clip, around the 2 minute mark, the men literally start to 'dagger' the women in the speakers!
And in this one, the women start to literally launch themselves at the men!
Not that there isn't a time and (my) place for that kind of thing...
(thanks Nige)

... I'll be having trouble concentrating on the show, because I'll be mentally undressing a number of my sweet, hard-bodied, Brazilian bar boys.
What?! I'm a (pretend) woman with (real) needs!

What an amazing turn out for the gay marriage/civil partnership discussion tonight! Obviously I was hoping it would be well attended, but it was packed to the gills, and people were really engaged with the discussion, even when it was necessarily complex.
It's very clear that, finally, the whole community is really involved in this issue. Many thanks to our legal-eagle speakers, who could've been there all night if we'd taken all the questions.
Here's an appropriate pic I stole off The Gaurdian. A gay couple lean in to kiss as they are arrested in San Francisco following the disappointing ruling of the Californian Supreme Court upholding the anti-gay marriage Proposition 8.
