Everywhere I turn there’s something big and gay happening in the news. If it isn’t the front page of The New York Times Style section (Adam Lambert), or the New York Post (Martina Navratilova’s Galimony Suit), then it’s in the The Iowa Gazette (What did we just do?). Surely gays are top of mind this season. We are the new black of news stories. It must be an economy-related phenomenon. The last time we were so “on trend” was in the late 70’s when I first moved to New York City and became a club kid at Studio 54. Then too, the economy, especially in NYC, was in the toilet, but boy were we fierce, dancing till dawn, and standing tall for gay rights. (The right to bear arms, but in a Michelle Obama kind of way.)

Can we replace that loud print for solid black?

The Village People and Donna Summer dominated the music charts and disco became our right of passage. Good times. Now, the tone is more serious as gays are fighting for the right to win American Idol and to get married in the Midwest (I mean…what?!?). I support any initiative for equality, it’s a civil rights issue. But allow me to yearn for a disco version of the current status quo. And while I’m at it, can we lose that rainbow flag? It’s so garish.
