ABOUT THIS DIRECTORY |
|
|
|
This Directory provides links to LGBTQ owned and friendly business and services. As you
browse through the directory remember to support business that
respect you and your family.
|
|
|
|
Opponents of
LGBTQ equality believe they are morally superior to gay and
lesbian families and our supporters. And they have the
backing of the Bush administration whose campaign was financed
by large corporations like Wal-Mart (see the Boycott page for
a complete list of companies who supported Bush).
|
|
|
|
Instead
of spending money at these and other straight-owned enterprises, why not
spend your hard-earned dollars supporting businesses that support you
and your family? |
|
|
|
Use this
directory and our classifieds to purchase products or services

Homo Politico |

A group of local churches in
Minnesota have begun to refuse to marry heterosexual couples in
protest of the ban on same-sex
marriage. The
churches will still hold ceremonies and blessings for both
