General Gayety: Purple Reign

Purple Reign

Sen. Patty Murray of Washington included this photo in her e-newsletter today. She and her staff sported purple last Thursday, Spirit Day, to make a statement against the bullying of LGBT youth. It's nice to have purple in high places.

Uhm send in the Queer Eyes for those Guys, since only two of them seem to know the difference between blue and purple.

Sigh, just when the gays thought they were making an impact in the world.

Welcome to General Gayety, the home for the giggles at the end of the rainbow.

This blog is for anyone who likes humor mixed in with LGBT issues. Be you lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, straight, queer, intersex, two-spirit, asexual or a term to be named later, you’ll find something here that tickles your fancy.

General Gayety is stuffed with photos, videos and cartoons. Those I curate, not create. My offerings are pithy posts on LGBT news and concerns. Also here are many of the humor columns I wrote until recently for the gay press. Pick an issue—I probably wrote about it.

A host of characters traipse through these virtual pages, ranging from Pope Benedict XVI to RuPaul, Fred Phelps to Dolly Parton, Mitt Romney to Bert and Ernie.

And you, if you like. I run a Guest Post now and then, so if you’ve waxed funny on a relevant topic, send me your piece at lesarobinson@gmail.com.

If you enjoy what you see here, sign on as a follower, and/or “like” the General Gayety Facebook page. It helps my psyche to know you’re out there.
