Thanks for your comments. Please tell us in more detail what you like about OutHistory, and what you think can be improved. And please think about creating some great LGBTQ history content (with pictures). Thanks. Jonathan Ned Katz, Co-Director of OutHistory

Hi Jonathan, just wanted to let you know that Blogs.com has a Top-10 Sites feature and I recently submitted one for History sites and I included OutHistory as one of them. (see it at http://www.blogs.com/topten/ ) Perhaps this will generate additional traffic for you.

Thanks so much to everyone for OutHistory! It's a great resource and I especially appreciate the reproduction of Grier's bibiography Lesbians in Literature and the recent article on Diana Frederics.

Looking for any information about the Sahara club for women - people who were there and would like to talk about it. We are making a documentary about Leslie and Beth called "Written in Stonewall." Leslie was one of the owners. The two have been together for 34 years and were the models for the George Segal "Gay Liberation" sculpture in Sheridan Square. Please check out website writteninstonewall.com .

(Brief version of what I typed before)

1. I'm interested in Andrew Gifford Jr and urban gay life in the English 18th century generally.

2. The attempts by gay novelist David Rees to recreate past gay lives. I know that "historical fiction" is a contradiction-in-terms for some people, but I feel it's better than nothing.

11-4-2010 Hi. I'm 75 years old & need a will. Since 1970 I've been collecting a library on GLBTQs, emphasis on non-fiction, & since late 1990s a library on paganism & shamanism, emphasis on Druidry. Need to find a suitable venue for bequest of these collections, to be archived--together in one place. Can you help? landline telephone 412-322-2239 (takes messages) Thanks, David A. Whaley, Ph.D.

This is Eric Hubert from the Disney lawsuit in 1988. I accidentally found this website when I was writing about the incident at Disney, the lawsuit and how it changed who I was and still am regarding my pride and my place in the GLBT community. Please let me know if any schools need a speaker regarding GLBT issues and history. I currently live in Boston and travelling in the Eastern seaboard is quite easy.

I would like to hear and learned more about Audrea Lorde, it would also be terrific if someone were to do an documenary about her. I would also like to know about her children and what has become of them after the loss of their mother.

To: patricia Boyd- Do you know about "The Audre Lorde Project" in NYC? I'm sure you can find info and history with this very capable organization. They are located in Bklyn. (google them). To John & others: Great site, much needed. keep up the great work, & I, too, hope to contribute in the future.

I resided in Beverly Hills when Ah Men Clothing was established in 1962 in West Hollywood by Don Cook & Jerry Furlow. Jerry died in 1964. A mutual Beverly Hills friend said later one of them died of suicide. Ah Men had a unique Gay perspective on mens' attire which might well have led to general American male awareness & acceptance of a more body-conscious emphasis in their apparel, especially so as to our special "manhood", before crotch grabbing began. Many of today's designers & clothiers follow their lead. Cook & Furlow deserve credit for a major change of attitude by American men but their story remains known to but a few of us still living. Only backward, repressed young males of the current day still harbor shame regarding male sexuality. If my memory is correct the nationally mailed Ah Men catalog became International Male & Undergear catalogs. Does anyone agree? Only Undergear survives under Brawn/Hanover Direct of New Jersey. Per my reading of the Undergear & Wikipedia (Undergear) websites today sadly no mention is made of Ah Men nor of its founders at either website. Could homophobia & bigotry guide history-telling by corporate CEOs now in control? Gay history has too long been ignored & suppressed! Woe be unto liars & haters!
