Two Favourite Gay Blogs

I am not really someone who read much gay stuff on line, particularly blogs (oh irony of ironies!) since most bloggers tend to be navel gazers. However, there are a couple of blogs which I do read on a semi-regular basis, and even one which I subscribe to the RSS for.

Little Yellow Different
The first is the original on-line diary of an American Chinese guy called Ernie, living in California and originally working for Yahoo! Like most of us, he has gotten lost, he has parents who (still) don't get him, and a sister with problems. However, despite all these trials, Ernie still manages to write with a delicate and sympathetic wit. Strongly recommended.

Jockohomo
I read loads of tech blogs on line and have almost given up entirely trying to read published magazines since the information that comes out is almost invariably out of date. Well, Jockohomo is the on-line equivalent of Attitude, that is loads of fluff, a few interesting editorial pieces, but an easy to read collection of gay and lesbian (but mainly gay) stuff from around the world.

Hey, this week they are linking to a site called 'Screened Out' about gay and lesbian representation in cinema. Really good stuff!

P.S. If you were wondering the picture is of Rex Harrison and Richard Burton playing hairstylists in 'Staircase' (1969)
