I absolutely endorse the following website as an incredibly well informed, positive, and stimulating source for issues and news that affect the LGBT community.
Here's their about us blurb:
"The Bilerico Project is the web's largest LGBTQ group blog with 50 lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and genderqueer contributors. The Project is the coming out and together of LGBTQ activists, politicos, journalists, novelists, advice columnists, and video bloggers.
You'll find news and opinion on the Project from 50 different perspectives and backgrounds. You'll agree with some, disagree with others, and be somewhere in the middle with most. But wherever we're all coming from, we can bridge the geographic divides and have creative and productive conversations about issues important to the LGBT community.
Since the Bilerico Project re-launched on July 9th, 2007, we've been nominated for the 2007 and 2008 Weblog Best LGBT Award and the 2007 Gay Verve Awards for Best Brand New blog and Best Political or News blog. We were also named one of Advocate magazine's top ten blogs of 2007. Don't just take their word for it, here are just a few of the things people are saying about the Bilerico Project:
- a "must-read" that is "rebooting the gay rights movement in a decentralized, spontaneous, bottom-up way"
--The Washington Post - "Think of The Bilerico Project as the love child created if The Huffington Post and our infamous "gay agenda" were to mate...."
--Scott-o-Rama - "Smart...intelligent...well written...wonderfully diverse contributors...."
--Best Gay Blogs - "Bilerico's 'underground flavor' draws gay fans"
--Washington Blade - "...a gay P.C. spinzone...."
--Former Washington Blade editor Chris Crain - "...an impressive array of top-rung contributors..."
--Blogger Joe Jervis of Joe.My.God. - "If it matters to the LGBT community, it's being discussed on Bilerico."
--Left of Centrist - "The largest and most prominent gay group blog in the country..."
--blueAlto - "The Project is a real effort to unite our community, granting a place for a wide variety of folks to meet, talk, dialog and learn."
--BlogActive's Mike Rogers - "...if you're not reading Bilerico daily, you should be... it's some of the best LGBT-relevant reading you'll do all day!"
--TransAdvocate - "...one hell of a site"
--BlueIndiana - "The Bilerico Project Blog has turned out to be an important LGBT resource."
--Square Pegz - "...notorious nut-job hate site..."
--Circle City Pundit - "They're good people!"
--QueerSighted's Kenneth Hill - "Indiana's most politically influential blog"
--BlogNetNews Indiana - "...Bilerico is on the front lines."
--Pam's House Blend

Thanks Brody. I appreciate the vote of confidence! :)
I had never come across this project until I wrote about the malicious religious marketing of sin, where I was happy to quote from The Trevor Project (which I found at Bilerico) and also look at the APA's new study which shows that sexual orientation cannot be changed.
Mind you I think I erred on the side of a "dull but worthy" article! Some days are like that!
I'm glad Brody and I and others can give this some extra PR muscle. My generation was queer and alone. We weren't even gay! I would have thought I had died and gone to heaven if I had found someone to talk to about it, and ideally an anonymous and safe stranger.
