I’m addicted to the new Madonna song. Hey — sometimes when things are tough all you can do to keep from falling apart is get a little silly. But seriously, it’s an interesting idea, too. Sometimes it feels like there isn’t enough time or enough power for one person to make a difference. While it’s…
Tomorrow (May 6) is the one-year anniversary of The Sin City Siren! It’s been quite a year! Thank you to all the loyal readers and fabulous guest writers over the past year! You rock! From organizing the Fag Bug visit to Las Vegas in the first month of the blog’s creation to establishing ourselves as…
As regular readers know, I’m running the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure here in Las Vegas on May 3. My first 5K! If you are so inclined, you can help me raise money for the cause by clicking here. A little shameless, I know, but it’s for a good cause. — E
The folks behind this year’s community production of the Vagina Monologues doesn’t want the vagina love to end. To that end they are forming an informal group meeting on the first Tuesdays of every month (that means the first one’s tomorrow, April 1). The idea is to discuss topics, network and build community ties. Each…

Remember how all it would take is an easy vote in Congress to fix it (at no cost to taxpayers, since it would just reestablish an existing program)? Well, the electeds have done jack about it and now there are women who are really struggling to get access to affordable birth…

I need a break from those irritating Walmart commercials which show women making all the food for large Super Bowl parties. As if only women would make all the food for a party. As if women wouldn’t want to watch the game. Memo to Walmart: Dudes cook and chicks watch sports (at least at my…
I love a good party, especially a costume party and especially one for a good cause! And for this party you get it all! (And yes, everyone has to wear a red dress – even dudes. They’ll stop you at the door and make you buy a dress for $20 if you don’t have one!)
The HRC’s Women’s Empowerment Network (WEN) is hosting a SWAN (Support Women Artists Now) event in Las Vegas on March 29 at the Freakin’ Frog. Those of you who helped with or went to any of the local Fag Bug events last July know that the nascent WEN group was instrumental in helping me coordinate…
Buried under a pile of paperwork (government forms make me itch), I dig myself out momentarily to offer you these news bits. Enjoy and remember to chew thoroughly. More Caucus Fest: Planned Parenthood not only is hosting a pre-caucus rally for the 35th anniversary of Roe v Wade on Jan. 19, but they are organizing…
