Been There Done That

Rainbow Walk, Turing Law, Intersex Awareness, Gay Street Press

We congratulate Adelaide for creating a Rainbow Walk in Light Square, City – where they celebrate their gay history, roots and elders with a colourful timeline; and we watch with awe as UK proposes extinguishing historical gay crimes with a so-called “Turing Law”. Locally, we learn about the history and place of gay street press in the liberation and declaration of our presence and role in Melbourne’s early gay history.

We raise Intersex Awareness – being celebrated on 26 October each year.

We wonder whether saving historical buildings is worthwhile – and cite examples of recent destruction, recognition and honour.

The week, birthday honours go to Helen “I am Woman” Reddy, and David Furnish, husband of Elton John.

Plus some trivia and mirth and much more ….
