On Living With A Secret (And Then Setting Myself Free)

Monday, June 4th, 2012

By Guest Blogger Joey Parker

Around two years ago, I ‘met’ Erica Diamond for the first time. By ‘met’ I really mean met through the web, but today I consider her a great friend. Social media has given us all the opportunity to unite and share our collective ideas on such fascinating platforms such as Twitter.

I admire Erica for many reasons– the fact she has created such an inspiring website for women is empowering. That said, it was also the exact reason why I started my own website. Except, mine celebrates the positive in Hollywood. So often we see the negative out there, and I was ready to spin some love into the blogosphere, thus, the creation of The Joey Parker Movement.

When Your Man Has Been Living A Double Life

One night five years ago, I was getting ready for bed. It was about 11 p.m. My fiance, Aaron, whom I’d lived with for ten years, was in the living room. I could hear Sex and the City droning on the television.

Off The Fence and Out Of The Closet

Wednesday, November 18th, 2009

By Guest Blogger, Adrienne Mosse

So there I was lying in my crib, a newborn in the hospital, just hangin’ out with the other newborns in the nursery, and something just didn’t feel right. I knew I was different from all the others, but I just couldn’t pinpoint what it was… Okay, I didn’t quite know THAT young, but I may as well have.

I was never really “on the fence” about being gay, but I was on the fence about what to do with that information, and how to deal with it. It was pretty easy to ignore for the first 13 or 14 years of my life. I was just the little girl wearing the brown sweater and slacks (as we called them back then) in the class pictures, when all the other girls were in their dresses and party shoes.

As I got older, it became a bit more difficult to ignore the fact that I wasn’t all that interested in the same things my friends were interested in, namely; boys, make-up, hair and those sun reflectors everyone used back in the 80s.
