Apparently, Somali Muslim lesbians don't exist. Hmm, that's news to me because I see one every time I look in the mirror. My name is Halima Ali, and I'm a young Black woman of Somali descent living in the City of Ottawa, Ontario. I study bio-chemistry at the University of Ottawa, and I'm also fairly active on the campus LGBT scene. Indeed, I'm the only Musli...

My name is Ajeebah Mokhtar and I was born and raised in the City of Misrata, Republic of Libya. I've lived in the City of Ottawa, Ontario, for the past eight years. I stand five feet nine inches tal...

I'm always sorry to get into a discussion of anyone's morals. But sometimes it just breaks my heart, especially when I see things which shouldn't have been controversial since the culture wars of the first half of the 21st century. And yet...and yet and alas! The old nature-phobe's expression "the shoe is on the other foot" can surely apply to those of us w...
Steve was surprised only by how quickly Gwen's detractors had managed to set things in motion. He had expected the 'dance' to begin during the summer recess. He was already feeling quite irritated when he was stopped by a TV reporter as he made his way through the airport. "Can you shed any light on these ethics violation accusations? What exactly is Gwen A...

At first I thought she had gotten up to use the bathroom in these early hours of the morning, but then I remembered. Her side had been vacant for the last 6 years and I was alone. Struggling toward consciousness, I rea...
................................................. He actually waited four days before he called. Two days longer than I thought. I listened as his smarmy voice oozed through the phone. "Tom, Tom, please be reasonable. I'm sure we can work out an agreement we're all happy with. Why don't you come by the office, we'll sit and discuss it like reasonable men."...

American physicist travels to Russia to save Chernobyl just in time for the nuclear meltdown. Unbelievably to some but not to most, there are some things that our government doesn't want us to know. Truth be told, our voted in office representatives don't even tell us half the things that should be public knowledge. Why is that? Shocking as it may be that o...
