Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon

Quite possibly America’s first power lesbian couple, Dorothy “Del” Martin and Phyllis Ann Lyon brought the fire. They met in 1950, started dating in 1952, and moved in together on Valentine’s Day of 1953. Together, they were unstoppable: they founded The Daughters of Bilitis in 1955 - viewed as the first official organization for lesbian women - and also edited The Ladder until 1963, were the first lesbians to enroll in NOW, did work in California to make homosexuals welcome in churches, wrote books together, and supported and influenced a demand for non-discrimination legislation for queermos.

On June 16, 2008 Martin and Lyon became the first same-sex couple to be married in San Francisco. They were together until Martin’s death two months later in August.

I LIKE THE RANDOM PORN ON MY DASH, THX

Every website should not be “kid friendly”. The older Internet generation needs a place too.

Or are they forgetting that? I bet you they haven’t realize that though. Yahoo bought tumblr to be cool again but they are about to change what tumblr is. Which to me sounds like a bully willing the little guy to give up his individuality.

Something’s rotten in the state of Denmark.

OR HERE’S WHAT THEY ACTUALLY TWEETED ABOUT THAT TIME YESTERDAY


titoooooooo: t-rexhatespush-ups: sr-mod-blog: frostbitesays: ilovemy-airman: flamesfromthemind: The night before the burial of her husband 2nd Lt. James Cathey of the United States Marine Corps, killed in Iraq, Katherine Cathey refused to leave the casket, asking to sleep next to his body for the last time. The Marines made a bed for her, tucking in the sheets below the flag. Before she fell asleep, she opened her laptop computer and played songs that reminded her of him, and one of the Marines asked if she wanted them to continue standing watch as she slept. “I think it would be kind of nice if you kept doing it” she said. “I think that’s what he would have wanted”.-Not sure what is more honorable: Being married to this faithful wife to the end or the Marine standing next to the casket watching over them both.IN HONOR OF ALL OF OUR ARMED FORCES PLEASE SHARE THIS. forever reblog. forever. Never forget those who were lost. To all those in uniform, thank you.
