Washington Mystics’ Stefanie Dolson Comes Out

Former University of Connecticut women’s basketball standout and current All-Star center forward for the WNBA’s Washington Mystics Stefanie Dolson came out in a soon-to-be-published issue of ESPN The Magazine.

Dolson, who wrote a piece for ESPN The Magazine’s May 23 WNBA Issue, said she made the decision to come out through a social media post because she had to be true to herself and wanted her fans to know the real her.

“Before posting, I thought about what people might say because this photo made it clear that we’re together, but then I realized that the reactions of others didn’t matter to me,” Dolson wrote. “I wanted people who are fans and supporters to know who I really am.”

She also noted that her generation’s ever-growing comfortability with sexuality and being open has taught her that gender comes second to someone’s personality. Dolan also touched on her ability to be a role model for youth who might not feel comfortable with themselves as part of the LGBTQ community.

“There are a lot of girls who struggle being who they are. We need people who are out so that those girls know it’s OK to be themselves, regardless of stereotypes,” wrote Dolson. “I just am who I am. And I’m happy.”

Coming out – whether it is as lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer or allied – matters. When people know someone who is LGBTQ, they are far more likely to support equality under the law. Beyond that, our stories can be powerful to each other.

Whether it’s for the first time ever or the first time today, the experience of coming out and living openly covers the full spectrum of human emotion — from fear to euphoria. Coming out — whether it is as LGBT or allied — is a deeply personal journey for each individual. Learn more at HRC’s Coming Out Center.

Words Matter.

Growing up, many of us heard the term “sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me.” This could not be farther from the truth. When talking about sexual orientation and gender identity, the words we choose and how we use them matter deeply.

People often speak without thinking and may not realize the words or terms they are using are offensive. The language they use, particularly relating to the LGBTQ community, may not always be meant in a harmful or demeaning way, but it can have a devastating and lasting effect.

Biphobia, homophobia and transphobia are sadly still prevalent, and when people use anti-LGBTQ rhetoric in their daily lives it creates an unwelcoming and potentially unsafe environment. We know from decades of research that LGBTQ students experience high rates of verbal harassment at schools, and in HRC’s groundbreaking survey of over 10,000 LGBTQ teens, many reported hearing anti-LGBTQ rhetoric not only from peers at school, but also from elected officials, clergy, teachers — even their own family members. Young people who are exposed to this harmful language are potentially less likely to come out as LGBTQ because they fear rejection or physical harm.

Not only should people avoid using derogatory language in general, but it is imperative the stop engaging in homophobic name-calling — including phrases such as, “That’s so gay.” Using the word “gay” to mean something is “stupid” or to degrade someone disparages the entire LGBTQ community.

The website NoHomophobes.com tracks in real-time Twitter posts that contain anti-LGBTQ words and phrases including “faggot,” “no homo,” “so gay,” and “dyke.” It also measures weekly and all-time uses of those four terms, while providing a running feed of users posting the offensive language.

The website’s numbers are startling, and appalling. For the week of May 6-12, the word “faggot” was tweeted nearly 49,000 times, while “no homo” was tweeted more than 20,000 times. Since the website began tracking these statistics on July 5, 2012, “faggot” has been tweeted more than 35 million times, while the terms “no homo” and “so gay” have each been tweeted nearly 11 million times and “dyke” has been tweeted almost five million times.

That being said, there are many people who refrain from talking about sexual orientation and gender expression because they fear saying the wrong thing, or it feels taboo. HRC’s Glossary of Terms is a valuable guide, providing words and meanings to help make conversations easier and more comfortable.

Additionally, HRC Foundation’s Welcoming Schools program provides resources with LGBTQ+ definitions for both adults and children to help ease conversations. Welcoming Schools’ resource What Do You Say to ‘That’s So Gay’ and Other Anti-LGBTQ* Comments? also provides helpful, simple and straightforward suggestions for responding to students who use words including “gay” in an offensive manner.

It is important to always be aware of the language we use, not just when speaking one-on-one with another person, but at all times — and especially when we’re in public. Click here to read through HRC’s Glossary of Terms.

#AM_Equality Tip Sheet: May 17, 2016

“WE’RE TALKING ABOUT KIDS” – PRESIDENT OBAMA GIVES PASSIONATE ARGUMENT FOR PROTECTING TRANSGENDER STUDENTS: In his first public comments since his administration issued guidance ensuring that transgender students are treated with respect in public and federally-funded schools, President Obama said it is society’s obligation “to make sure that everybody is treated fairly, and our kids are all loved, and that they’re protected, and that their dignity is affirmed.” During an interview Monday with BuzzFeed, the president said the school guidelines are modeled after “best practices” developed by school districts already treating transgender students with respect and inclusion. “We’re talking about kids,” he said, noting the stark reality that LGBT youth “are subject to a lot of bullying, potentially they are vulnerable.” More here.

TRUMP BAFFLINGLY SAYS LGBT COMMUNITY SHOULD TRUST GOVERNORS LIKE MCCRORY, ABBOTT TO PROTECT THEIR RIGHTS… The Washington Post reports the presumptive GOP candidate thinks the Obama administration’s guidance protecting transgender students ought to be rescinded, and instead the LGBT community should rely on governors to “make the right decisions.”  Because that’s worked so well so far.

THE EU CONDEMNS HB2, ASSERTS ANTI-LGBT LAWS VIOLATE INTERNATIONAL CIVIL RIGHTS AGREEMENT: The European Union (EU) is condemning HB2 and anti-LGBT laws in Tennessee and Mississippi for violating a decades-old United Nations agreement on civil rights. The EU says that the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, adopted by the UN in 1966, prohibits “any discrimination and guarantees to all persons equal and effective protection.” In a statement, the EU asserts that the covenant protects LGBTI people from discrimination.

NORTH CAROLINA HB2 FALLOUT CONTINUES…

• The ACLU of NC, the national ACLU, and Lambda Legal also took action against HB2 on Monday, asking a federal judge to prohibit state enforcement of the law. The injunction, if granted, would remain in place until the legal challenge to HB2 is resolved by the court.  
• HB2 is causing Greensboro, NC, and its coliseum complex, economic difficulties of “unprecedented proportions,” commissioners of the venue told Governor Pat McCrory in a letter that included a call for him to reverse his support of the “economically harmful legislation.” They cite the “disastrous impact” of Bruce Springsteen’s canceled concert (not because of lack of ticket sales, they dryly note), and other lost business and opportunities. Read the letter here.
• Comedian Louis C.K. is the latest entertainer to speak out against HB2, announcing that proceeds from his July 15 show in Greensboro will go toward efforts to repeal the discriminatory legislation. More from WXII12.

DESPITE PENTAGON STUDY SHOWING FEASIBILITY OF LIFTING BAN, TRANSGENDER SERVICE MEMBERS STILL IN LIMBO: A new study commissioned by Defense Secretary Ashton Carter found that there are an estimated 2,450 transgender people actively serving in the military, and that any costs associated with lifting the military’s ban on openly-transgender service members would have a negligible effect on the military’s annual $610 billion budget. The study found that if the Pentagon did not cover these costs, including medical procedures like hormone replacement and surgery, rates of substance abuse and suicide among transgender service members could go up. Nevertheless, the Pentagon and White House have yet to reach a solution and lift the ban, continuing to call the matter “complicated.” With only 8 months left, the administration is quickly running out of time to act. More from The New York Times.

WATCH: GLOBAL ADVOCATES MARK INTERNATIONAL DAY AGAINST HOMOPHOBIA, TRANSPHOBIA AND BIPHOBIA: In a new HRC Foundation videos series, international LGBTQ rights advocates highlight their work across the globe, raising up International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia (IDAHOT)’s 2016 theme of mental health and wellbeing. The HRC Foundation has partnered with leading LGBTQ entertainment company Logo for a new Global Ally multiplatform storytelling campaign. The campaign features dozens of international equality activists, whose work ranges from fighting to stop the dangerous, debunked practice of “conversion therapy” in El Salvador, to ending so-called “anti-propaganda” laws in Russia that ban LGBTQ Russians from receiving information crucial to their wellbeing. Today, the HRC Foundation also released the third annual Equality Rising: Global Equality Report, an analysis of the work underway and emerging challenges facing LGBTQ activists, advocates, and allies around the world.

PRO-EQUALITY GOP MEMBERS FIGHT ANTI-LGBT MEASURE: Some House Republicans have come together to fight an anti-LGBT provision tacked onto the National Defense Authorization Act. The provision was designed to undermine President Obama’s executive order protecting LGBT workers employed by federal contractors. Rep. Charlie Dent (R-PA) has offered a bipartisan amendment to strike the provision. All eyes are on the House Rules Committee and whether they will allow a vote on the amendment.

MISSISSIPPI DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION SAYS ‘YES’ TO ADMINISTRATION’S GUIDANCE ON TRANS STUDENTS: Despite anti-trans rhetoric from their governor and some state lawmakers, the Mississippi Department of Education is standing up for students and announced it will implement the U.S. Department of Education’s guidance on supporting transgender youth. In a statement by the Mississippi Department of Education, officials emphasized the need for “a safe and caring school environment” and called it “critical to a student’s ability to learn and achieve.” Meanwhile, in Alabama, one State School Board member is seeking to pass a resolution that would undermine the very same federal guidance to the detriment of transgender students across the state.

ALABAMA CHIEF JUSTICE MAY SOON BE #NOMOORE: In a blistering story about corruption and ethics scandals across all three branches of state government in Alabama, The New York Times reports on embattled Alabama Chief Justice Roy Moore’s suspension for defying federal court marriage equality rulings. Moore could — thankfully — be removed permanently from his seat over his latest ethics violation, in which he ordered probate judges statewide to explicitly refuse to implement the Supreme Court’s marriage equality ruling. Say #NoMoore, via The New York Times.

SC PASTOR NEEDS REFRESHER ON SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE: Following the failure of an anti-transgender measure in the state’s legislature this legislative session, a pastor in Rock Hill, SC is attempting to move a discriminatory ordinance through the local city council. Pastor Joey Deese told the city council that SC needs to take a “Biblical stance” on the issue of transgender people using the bathroom that corresponds to their gender identity.  

SUSPECT ARRESTED IN BANGLADESHI LGBT ACTIVIST’S MURDER: Police in Bangladesh have made an arrest in the tragic murder of Xulhaz Mannan, who was an editor for the country’s only LGBT magazine. Bangladeshi police have taken Shariful Islan Shihab into custody, questioning him in not only about the murder, but other activities carried out by the Islamic State in the country.

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” Recap Realness: May The Best Woman Win

You know how our every earthly moment is just another step in a slow march toward death and so we distract our minds and bodies with empty joys to stave off thoughts of our inevitable demise? If you didn’t, then the finale of this season of RuPaul’s Drag Race can serve as an excellent primer in existential dread. Because Bob the Drag Queen has been the winner for a while now and we all know it, but we’ve still got 90 minutes to get through here, so we’d better make the best of it. Instead of filling the void with Seamless and Netflix (or whatever not-as-overtly-sad things you interesting people kill your time with), Ru carts out a collection of familiar faces decked out in the best fashions this show has ever seen, some original songs to lip sync to, and a few tautly-muscled gentlemen to ogle. There are also interview segments, which have not magically become more interesting than in previous years; in our current analogy, they serve as the mind-numbing job you have to go to so you can afford your Netflix, Seamless, and/or non-sad pastimes.

The show opens with a reminder of Ru’s legacy: a pantheon of fan favorites (and Tyra Sanchez) recreating their iconic photo shoot from the premiere. It’s a welcome reminder of what greatness this competition can give us, but also a completely unnecessary reminder because this season started like two days ago. Seriously, how is it already over? One day you turn around and you’re 90 and it’s like, “I guess we’re in the home stretch,” and you start randomly giving your belongings away to your younger relatives and it makes them uncomfortable. (If you were hoping for a recap that doesn’t employ an extended end-of-life metaphor, then you might want to close this browser tab now, because I feel pretty committed to this analogy.) Whatever, there’s a clown here! Ru brought a clown! Laugh at the clown and forget that your cells are decaying as I type this!

After the credits roll, each of the season’s contestants get one last chance to wow us. I wish I could call it an across-the-board success, but Robbie apparently didn’t know this was happening today. Everyone else hired a make-up artist and a stylist, but Ms. Turner goes for a gown that is neither modern enough to be fashionable nor old enough to deliver the vintage glamour she aspires to, and her eyebrows still look like upside-down Verizon logos. Even Derrick turned it up a couple notches for our last hurrah, and she can barely work the dial! Sure, Thorgy came dressed as a hallucinogenic flashback that would terrify Pennywise himself, but that’s her thing. She is the human embodiment of a dreadlock wrapped in a Twizzlers Pull ‘n’ Peel, and you can’t take that away from her.

Oh, and since you asked for glamour: Bob gives GLAMOUR. Ratchets are for carburetors, Michelle. (Is that what ratchets are for? I have literally never used one. I’m only 75 percent sure I could accurately identify one out of a lineup of metal objects. Are ratchets made of metal?) Speaking of indefinite materials, Ru’s second gown is stitched out of angel voices or the dreams of puppies or something: it’s woven yet also floor-length fringe, metallic yet also rainbow, hard and soft and opaque and transparent, and if you didn’t have dementia before (and be honest: you did), then you for sure have it now. Gaze into her dress, for it is the all-knowing abyss. Contemplate infinity as you decipher its criss-crossing complexity. This, students, is the search for meaning in a meaningless world.

To keep the pageant lively, our supreme leader kicks things off with performances. Hilariously, while Naomi’s song talks about her legs and Kim’s is about how she’s fat and can’t dance, Bob’s is literally a description of how good she is at everything. Gosh, I wonder who they’ll crown at the end of the night. It’s really anyone’s game. (Side note: even though our favorite fermented side dish did almost no actual dancing, she still wasn’t wearing heels under her gown and I’m kind of not OK with that. Don’t be the girl in a t-shirt at the funeral. You know the rules here.)

Each of the final three gets interviewed and it goes pretty much how you’d expect so I won’t take up your time by re-confirming that yes, that happened. The only welcome surprises come in the form of video messages. Bob gets two: one from her mom (because RuPaul will live for a thousand more years if she can continue to suckle from the tear ducts of the young) and one from Carol Channing because the world is occasionally wonderful. Kim pointedly does not get a message from her mother, which is great because maybe the kind of interpersonal complications they’re dealing with can’t be resolved with a reality TV moment. They get Margaret Cho to share some words of encouragement instead, because… Korea? Look, sometimes you’ve got to stretch the logic a little. Case in point: Lena Headey cameos to talk to Naomi, and not even Melisandre could tell us why. These are the times when you say “the universe is random and there is no higher purpose” or “the Lord works in mysterious ways,” so take your pick and move on, I guess.

More interviews ensue. It doesn’t matter. Let’s cut to the chase! You’re already old, your spouse has perished, your ailments are piling up; it’s time and you’ve made peace with it. Cynthia Lee Fontaine, who has never looked good and never will and I don’t even care because she is a perfect angel from heaven and I love her with a force that could split atoms and power cities, is crowned Miss Congeniality. It is the most important thing. We should stop crowning Miss Congeniality after this season because there will never be a more deserving recipient than this vision of loveliness with the fashion sense of an overstimulated toddler, the voice of a clogged garbage disposal, and the heart of all of history’s Nobel Peace Prize recipients combined into a single clarified essence. Luxuriate in her abhorrent gown and shitstack hairdon’t, for she is the best of us.

For the crowning, all of the previous Drag Superstars re-emerge in even more spectacular creations, but time comes to a halt when Violet Chachki graces us with the most glorious creation that has ever been worn anywhere on the planet. Words cannot do it justice, but the fact that her crown is growing biologically out of her head is apt because a presentation this impeccable proves that she is deserving of her title on a fundamental, cellular level. It’s the ultimate power play, really: if you’re forced to acknowledge someone as your successor, then do it while broadcasting that you’re a tough fucking act to follow.

And then Ru is all, “I might crown anyone” and the audience is like “you will crown Bob though” and Ru is like “but what if I didn’t?” and everyone’s just “but you WILL” and she’s all “I haven’t made up my mind” and we’re like “death comes for us all” and Ru goes “TRUTH” and Bob gets the crown and it gives us life but also we have finally succumbed to eternity’s sweet embrace; it is over and we can rest peacefully in our graves, having learned and loved and lost and gotten our winged eyeliner exactly right at least once, I hope.

Chris J. Kelly performs under the drag name Ariel Italic and can be seen at her regular show every Monday night at Eastlands in Brooklyn, NY.

With Danny’s go-go career seemingly back on track, and despite a failed attempt at breaking into the adult film industry, he’s finally ready to relax and unwind. All work and no play makes something something.

OK, so what if his entire adult life essentially consists of partying? It can feel like a full time job.

In this week’s episode of Jimmy Fowlie‘s Go-Go Boy Interrupted, Danny plunges into the nexus of LA A-gays, the pool party.

Does he make it out alive? Will he be too drunk to drive home and have to leave his car in the Hollywood hills? Will anyone actually eat the food?

Tune in for the dramatic conclusion:

IDAHOT, Magic Mushrooms, Warren Buffett, Oregon + Kentucky, Celine Dion: NEWS

TODAY. International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia (IDAHOT).

TODAY. Democratic primary in Kentucky and Oregon: “Two Democratic presidential primaries are taking place: Kentucky, with 61 delegates up for grabs, and Oregon, with 74 delegates.For Sanders, erasing Clinton’s lead in pledged delegates (currently 1,722 to 1,424) will take winning about two-thirds of those that remain. That’s to say nothing of Clinton’s huge edge among superdelegates — a project Sanders is saving for later.”

FLIP THE SCRIPT? Can she do it? “Bernie Sanders appears poised to pick up another victory on Tuesday in the Democratic primary in Oregon and is aiming for an upset in Kentucky, a state Hillary Clinton won eight years ago and where she maintains strong institutional roots among Democrats…But Sanders victories are hardly inevitable in either state, and if Clinton were able to win both of them, she would finally put to rest the notion that her fellow Democrats are resistant to her candidacy, even if many seem resigned to having her as their nominee.”

TBLISI. 10 gay activists arrested in Georgia. “Georgia’s interior ministry said on Tuesday 10 people were detained at the break of dawn as they were writing “All love is equal.” The police said the activists could face charges ranging from vandalism to disobeying police orders.”

LABOR VS. ENVIRONMENT. Rift opens in Democratic Party? “The rift developed after some in the labor movement, whose cash flow has dwindled and whose political clout has been increasingly imperiled, announced a partnership last week with a wealthy environmentalist, Tom Steyer, to help bankroll a new fund dedicated to electing Democrats. That joint initiative enraged members of the nation’s biggest construction unions, already on edge about the rising influence of climate-change activists.”

TRIPPIN TREATMENT. Magic mushrooms seen to lift severe depression in trial. “In spite of the outcome, the researchers urged people not to try magic mushrooms themselves.”

GEORGIA. Marietta church choir director said he was forced to resign for being gay: “In December, Pittman threw a Christmas party for staff members with his partner of 16 years present. He says after the party, one of the staff members complained to church leaders that it was a ‘coming out party.’ Pittman says he was forced to resign because leaders said he violated the church’s stance on homosexuality.”

MIKE WEBB. Congressional candidate forgets to close the porn tabs on his web browser.

DARK DAUGHTERS. Annual Night of a Thousand Stevies hits NYC’s Irving Plaza: “This year’s NOTS was a captivating fusion of queer-identified Stevie acolytes, gothic/wiccan subculture devotees (with tarot readings given alongside the merchandise booths), alternative nightlife enthusiasts, and both longtime and newcomer Stevie Nicks and Fleetwood Mac fans drawn by the spectacle and artistic appreciation.”

SADNESS. Celine Dion reflects on husband’s death: “You know what, I’m 48 years old and I lost the love of my life. I miss him a lot from when he was great but not when he was suffering. I cannot be selfish. You have to let people go. I feel at peace.”

SNOG OF THE DAY. Trans women make out at 10 Downing Street. “Am proud to have captured this snog outside 10 Downing Street, of gorgeous couple @charlie_blonde_girl and@pink_fluffy_socks – two inspiring trans women.”

MASHUP OF THE DAY. The best pop songs of 2016 (so far?)…

BUSINESS. Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway takes out $1 billion stake in Apple: “The investment shows the amount of rope Mr. Buffett is willing to give his protégés, as the legendary stock picker, who turns 86 years old in August, prepares Berkshire for a future without him at the helm. In an email Monday, Mr. Buffett didn’t say whether Mr. Combs or Mr. Weschler made the call. But he said they each make investment decisions without consulting him first.The Apple position gives Berkshire a rare sizable stake in a technology company.”

ORPHANS. Baby rhinos cry as their milk runs out: “These orphaned baby rhinos watched as their moms were killed by poachers in the South African bushveld. They, along with dozens of other orphaned rhinos, are currently being rehabilitated at the Care for Wild Africa Rhino Sanctuary in South Africa. Care for Wild Africa is the largest rhino orphanage in the world, and is committed to the successful rescue, care, and rehabilitation of Africa’s wildlife. ”
