LGBT and Sport: A Blog of Two Halves.

LGBT and Sport: A Story of Two Halves. I really look forward to the day when words like, brave, shocked or courageous are no longer used when a sportsperson tells the public that their sexuality isn’t heterosexual. Having watched the Channel Four programme, Britain’s Gay footballers (a misleading title as apparently there aren’t any) saw [...]

First Look at GO.GO Festival 2012 Line Up Announced & London’s Iconic Candy Bar Locates to GO.GO

Last year Zhoosh went along to the GO.GO women’s festival along with 200 other women from Brighton & Hove to join thousands of females from across the UK.

The L Project’s single ‘It Does Get Better’ released TODAY! Zhoosh interviews co-creator Sofia Antonia Milone

I think honestly, though we had very big ambitions, and knew the community should and would want to get behind the project because it’s so obviously a worthy one, we have been quite overwhelmed by the backing and support we’ve received from not only the the gay media as you mention, but the online social pages like WHOF (Wipeout Homophobia on Facebook). The internet has been our friend, and we’ve made a great many of them on it.
