It’s not what it sounds like, but it does help you grab onto poles.
And not in the way we would have liked.
Much to our chagrin, we were having some nasty server issues, which have hopefully been resolved by now. Forgive us. We missed you.
Snapshot kicks off tonight at its new home base, Bar 13 (35 E13th St. between Broadway and University). That’s cool by us—Boysroom was always a little, um, cozy for our taste. The new location promises two levels of dancing, plus a roof deck, plus the possibility of actual lounging. Among the entertainment: […]
We were just minding our own business last Saturday night at Metropolitan in Williamsburg, a little bleary from the booze, when in walks in someone who looks really familiar. Was she in our yoga class? No. Had we seen her on the subway? No. Then it hit us…it was lesbo icon Anne Ramsay, looking cool, […]
If you haven’t caught comedian Eugene Mirman’s column on the Village Voice website, be sure to take a look. Mirman recalls a mock fundraiser he once held for former Republican presidential candidate Alan Keyes as part of his comedy act, only to find that his name landed on some ultra-conservative, gay-people-are-the-root-of-all-evil mailing lists for […]

The university’s law school officially caved and will now allow military recruiters on campus, reversing last year’s decision to ban recruitment because the ‘don’t ask, don’t tell’ policy on gays violated the school’s nondiscrimination […]
Cattyshack was packed Saturday night for the Mister-Hysto benefit to promote trans and female health issues. We weren’t sure exactly what that meant either, but thankfully Mr. Hysto himself, Nicco (above), generously took some time out of hosting to give us a tutorial.
More after the jump…
The donations at the door were going to […]
Does anyone actually have cable out there? If so, don’t miss TransGeneration, an original documentary about transgender college students. The eight-episode series premieres tonight on the Sundance Channel at 9pm. We meet Gabbie, a fresh-faced MtF sophomore at the University of Colorado; Lucas, an FtM senior at the all-women’s Smith College. There’s […]
