A rousing cheer for hetero ally par excellence, author of the blog Disney Wonder Baby. She “totally support[s] lesbian couples as mothers and here’s why.”

I was directed to this site by a note about it inLesbianFamily.org, a fantastic site parsing and listing scads and scads of lesbo family blogs and more. One of its blog categories is “Supportive Hetero Family Blogs,” of which there are a dozen (& counting). Check ‘em out.

Hell I’m so pro-ally I’m making a little blog category for it (what else? “Go hetero ally go!”). So’s I can arrange all the happy posts referencing hetero allys and look at them in a grouping from time to time, and sigh contentedly about how AMOR VINCIT OMNIA, people.

[Update: The publisher of Babes in Blogland, to which the Disney Wonder Baby gal referred in her post, recently set up an LGBT bloggers category. The site in general is a compendium of bloggers who are making or raising babies.]

    You may also want to check out Atticus Circle (http://www.atticuscircle.org), a new organization for straight allies in support of LGBT rights. I’m not affiliated with them, but wrote about them when they launched in July: http://mombian.com/2006/07/19/atticus-circle-organizes-straight-allies-for-lgbt-rights/

    Thank you, Dana! Per usual, you are a gurgling font of information. If Mombian ever went dark, we’d all have to fly our rainbow flags half-mast, and then start scrambling quick.

    Ayelet, if there were an int’l chapter–and you know during my next fit of procrastination I will search for it–you’d be a charter member. We all miss you all, big time.

    Hey there, I run the site (Babes in Blogland) that DWB was discussing in her entry. I’d like to welcome you to join my blogroll listings — just clue me in to child #1’s birth month and year and your partner’s EDD, if you would. I did a cursory search here on your site but couldn’t find the info (and yes, no doubt it’s RIGHT THERE like on the header or something, but I couldn’t find it).

    Muchas gracias!

    Thank you, S! Will do, for kid #1 & kid #2 (still en route). I will happily update the post, too, to reflect your new LGBT category. And bless you for that little “embrace diversity” flag thingy in the upper right corner!

    Hieroglyphics alert! LD recently made the jump to WordPress 2.5.1, with which came hieroglyphics (–) everywhere in the archival material. I've weeded a coupla dozen posts, and continue to do more when I have time, but please be patient 'til I git the mechanic to git the rest of it outta here. Shouldn't be too long.

    Lesbian Dad Lesbian Dad is written by a parent who answers to the name "Baba" and works toward a world in which amor does indeed vincit omnia.

    Still curious? You'll find a ton more on the About page. Baffled by the lingo? Peruse the Glossary. For the proper immersion experience, I highly recommend a visit to the Best of LD.
