The theme to this year's Christopher Street West's LA Pride event is "Power. Passion. Purpose." For many, the highlight is the big parade, which takes place Sunday morning in the heart of West Hollywood. more ›

Last Saturday, as part of Pride Week, Barnsdall Park was the site of Dyke Day LA. The event started at noon and culminated with beginning of the Dyke March. The fun day of hanging out on folding chairs and blankets was a welcome relief from all that marching, because some of us are not in such good shape. more ›

My t-shirt is accurate. I do love Dykes. I love them for their courage, their defiance, and their sacrifice. And as women, we share a traceable genealogical line that extends beyond 180,000 mitochondrial generations, making us all grand-daughters of the same Eve-of-origin. more ›

Put on your comfortable shoes, girls, because there will be not one, but TWO Dyke Marches this weekend.
