She's
Bringing Sexy Back
In this
summer’s Sex and the City, Kim Cattrall
is back for more. But the woman who symbolizes sex with no
strings isn’t anything like her screen
persona—except of course when she is.

Transpositions
"We would be
stronger as a movement if all the energy that went into
questioning Beatie's masculinity, or his choice to go
public, was instead used to educate others."
-
The Passing Media
Glare
"It has been just
over a month since the Beaties were wire news and
where are they now? They have been moved off the front pages
by politics, natural disasters, and other everyday
news items."
-
Transpositions
"So Margaret
Somerville, Cathy Renna, et al. are concerned that the
publicity of Thomas Beatie's baby will harm the child? Are
they equally concerned of all the publicity over Sury
Cruise and the Branjolina children?"
-
Kim Cattrall
"Thank you for a
great birthday present with the beautiful Kim Cattrall
cover! I have loved her since Mannequin."
-
International
Incident
"What happened to
Fay and Moulton doesn't surprise me the least. I am
trying very hard as a French citizen and as a lesbian not to
be ranting against Poland, but when they made it into
the EU, I wasn't a happy camper."
-
Marrying With
Money
"Brian Richardson
was spot-on with his suggestion to spend your money in
gay-friendly places to send a message to those less than
open."
-
Birth Control for
Lesbian Teens
"As a queer
identified woman who spent my adolescence questioning
(and later lesbian), I believe teen women deserve access to
the birth control method of their choice, regardless
of their sexual orientation."
-
She's Bringing
Sexy Back
"The attitude
that Kim Cattrall needs to keep Samatha (her most
popular and lasting character, and trust me I have seen a
great deal of her work over the years) at a distance
is ridiculous."
-
Judging a
Magazine by Its Cover
"I don't mind it
when straight actors appear on the cover when they're
in a film about gay people. However, enough is enough."
