Morning Brew – Ruby Rose is GQ Australia’s Woman of the Year

Happy Veteran’s Day! Let’s all watch Serving in Silence and support this bill that would help LGBT veterans who were discharged less than honorably from the military due to Don’t Ask Don’t Tell.

The USA show Donny! is about a talk show host who is, apparently, really into having lesbians on his show. From a review:

…believe me, every woman involved in Donny! suffers long, including any woman who actually watches this show – he throws out lots of ideas for future shows, such as”Royal Lesbians: Dukes and Dykes,” and the woman has to shake her head wearily and say, No more lesbian ideas, Donny, it’s always the lesbians with you.

No actual lesbian characters though, obviously.

Ruby Rose is on the cover of GQ Australia because she’s been named their woman of the year.

When she received her award last night, she dedicated to someone else instead, her friend Courtney whose mom recently died of breast cancer.

Ruby also posed with her mother, Katia (the resemblance!!!), and fiancee Phoebe Dahl.

A lesbian couple flying on Qantas was asked to move seats so that an opposite-sex married couple could sit next to one another.

The Canadian Lesbian and Gay Archives are throwing a gala in Toronto this weekend.

Slutever interviews Natalia Leite and Alexanda Roxo about Be Here Now-ish. On if it’s a queer show:

“We like the word queer because it describes the community that we are a part of in real life and that our show exists in, where people can be open to their own individual interpretation of their sexuality and gender. The show is queer in the sense that our characters are exploring spaces that don’t fit into the heterosexual norm.”

Xfinity chatted with Marianne Jeanne Baptist, whose character was revealed to be a lesbian on Blindspot this week. We’ll post an interview with the show’s out staff writer about that and more today!

National Center for Lesbian Rights Executive Director Kate Kendall wrote about why she left the Mormon church. An excerpt:

On Thursday (Nov. 5), it was revealed that the church issued policy changes to “Handbook 1,” the guide for its lay leadership. Under the changes, same-sex couples who marry are apostates and are unwelcome in church congregations. Going further, the new policy states that the children of same-sex couples cannot be baptized in the church until they are 18 and then only if they disavow their parents. It was the gratuitously cruel and stigmatizing treatment of children that pushed me to disavow the church of my childhood. It is impossible for me to be a part of a religion that would attack its own members and punish them by denying their children involvement in the church. The move is as clever as it is draconian. Members seeking to live lives of integrity as openly LGBT people must not only leave the church, but take their children with them. It requires a particular streak of evil genius to manufacture such a “Sophie’s choice.”

Out and Around documentary makers Jenni Chang and Lisa Dazols delivered a TED Talk on LGBT life around the world.
