I have every right to be saddened and to share my disappointment of ‘characters’ like that of LOGO’s new, “A-List NYC” being put on display for all the world to see and look to as role models. Often times in journalism and the media folks just do not do their homework – I wonder if those that would attempt to discredit me have even actually picked up a copy of the Summer 2010 issue of PLAYGIRL Magazine to look at the pictures and to read the article that explained in detail the artistic and social science aspects of the project. I also wonder if they would dig deep enough to know that I have spent my entire life fighting for a community that deserves to be respected and treated equally – each and every project that I take on – in some way has to do with the well-being and protection of Equality and the preserving of Public Health.

Could we maybe watch the show first before we’re told it’s no good for gays? It couldn’t possibly be any worse than Logo’s obsession with RuPaul drag queen shows and Buffy the Vampire re-runs could it? I reserve judgement.

Damn Ronnie… if they won’t dig deep into your project, I volunteer to do so

Correcting one’s uninformed, attack-happy writer’s perception – is not defensive. It is simply correcting ignorance.

Artistic? Ok, art is subjective, i’ll give you that one.
But Social Science?! That’s just so asinine that my only response can be “Fuck you.”

Is this douchebag Ronnie for real? He goes on a crappy reality tv show and now he disses other empty-headed, vapid, narcissistic, pumped up queens like him for being, on, surprise!, another shitty TV show? And then he says that Playgirl has artistic and social relevance??? Am I reading this correctly? OMG, why are the ignorant always so prone to spewing crap? Dude, stop trying desperately to extend your 1.5 seconds of fame. Go away.

Ooooo, get her!
