A new study shows that LGBT equality has been on the up-and-up for the last decade… except in school, where homophobia rages on. Vote for SheWired’s gay woman of the year.

The Washington D.C. City Council said yes to marriage equality in its final vote on the bill. Howevs, Marion Barry voted no, which is frustrating.

Uganda calls takebacks — killing gays will remain a piece of the anti-gay legislation after all. We look at other countries with similar laws and recent interviews with anti-gay leaders in Uganda. Also; GLSEN is counting the number of times you say “dyke” on twitter and we don’t understand why and an annoying columnist talks smack about the hot teacher makeout.

Lindsay Lohan’s MUSE photoshoot looks better as a short film – but where’s the other girl? Logo brings Buffy, Willow and Tara back to your TV, everyone ever is reviewing ’09 and handing out awards, MTV cancels “It’s On With Alexa Chung” and adds “Jersey Shore” to the bottomless pit of reality TV shows — which happen to be Michelle Obama’s guilty pleasure. We also have a lot of love for Adam Lambert!
