Reflections on Majdanek: I've gotten somewhere?
http://reflectionsonmajdanek.blogspot.com/2011/07/ive-gotten-somewhere.html
Tuesday, July 5, 2011. My friend turned to me on Saturday night. There was noise, but not much. I could hear her. There were blinking lights, but they were deadened in our part of the dance hall by the intruding foyer lights. I could see her. Wow. I thought, your wife is lucky to have you - you are a beautiful person. She was speaking. I was listening. I've finally found somebody else like you! What do you mean? An optimistic gay man! Do I deserve such a title. October 8, 2011 at 2:08 AM. Hello dear read...

Thursday, May 5, 2011. And why do we get frustrated by our friends who are silent? This is a question that we must also ask ourselves, because it is more of a reflection on us than anything else. And we do everything we can to make sure that this mythical creature constructed in our head looks nothing like us. And so we are silent. And so we are silent. And our friends are silent because we are silent, and everybody continues to be silent except those who are particularly talented at throwing spears.

Reflections on Majdanek: Pride Week
http://reflectionsonmajdanek.blogspot.com/2011/06/pride-week.html
Thursday, June 23, 2011. You wouldn’t have known it if you lived in Regina - hell, you probably wouldn’t have known it if the Gay and Lesbian Community of Regina building was your neighbour - but last week was Pride Week here in town. As such, I got to participate in my first ever Pride events. And I was thoroughly (fill in the blank) with everything. Except the dancing. I went to a film viewing. The Politics of Pride. Made me sad, and want to cry, and carry dramatic signs at the parade. Didn’t go ...

Monday, May 23, 2011. I am not a big fan of professional sports. If I were to construct my ideal world, they would likely not be on the list of things I would remember to reproduce. But I'd make sure athletes were included - and that these athletes were on my soccer team, or worked out at the gym that I work out at. I would hate to miss out on being around them. No Did it give me a momentary conversation topic? Yes Did I know what the consequences of the game were? San Francisco Giants to produce "It Get...

Reflections on Majdanek: Burnaby and Tennessee
http://reflectionsonmajdanek.blogspot.com/2011/05/burnaby-and-tennessee.html
Tuesday, May 31, 2011. Burnaby, Burnaby, Burnaby. My relationship with today's problems started years ago. It was my first year of University. I was sitting in my education advisor's office, talking about what classes I should take to best prepare me to teach curriculum, and that got us started. Sounds cool, hey? At the time I never would've thought about it, but it only makes sense now. One of the units is about gay rights, or, more specifically, the history of gay people in Canada. Firstly, the point o...

Sunday, May 29, 2011. Tennessee and Burnaby (hey that rhymes! Let me start with Tennessee. The middle of May 2011 has not been kind to teachers in Tennessee. Or to gay people. I can't imagine being both at the same time. The Tennessee Senate has passed a law that will prevent teachers from discussing homosexuality with their students. This is being called the 'Don't Say Gay! Law (what a deceptively exciting title! Instead, any discussion of sexuality will be limited to natural-health sexual-reproduction.
