I spent a recent weekend with my best friend, who I call Momma Bird. He and I went to the lake for one of our ongoing ceremonies. Momma Bird and I walked down the steep and sometimes slick hill, from all the melting snow. It was one of the first truly warm weekends we’ve had […]

So, my Facebook page doesn’t see a lot of action from others, only posts from yours truly, usually proudly proclaiming my love of my new found singlehood, or perhaps showcasing the talents of any writer on Autostraddle.com. Well, to my astonishment (and perhaps deepest desire), posting an article on Men’s Rights Organization CAFE’s latest billboard […]

One of the things I speak to all of my clients about is critical illness insurance, because the majority of the people you […]

Even the most diligent Physiotherapists can get lower back pain. We are constantly bending down or leaning over bodies all day.

As an often femme-identified queer woman, I often mix masculine clothing along with feminine pieces. When decked out in super feminine pieces (think floral, pink, frills, lace) I feel as though I am in drag so I choose to ground more ‘girly’ pieces with a leather jacket, motorcycle boots, fun sneakers, multipurpose accessories or heavy […]

Did you know that Pride is considered one of the Seven Deadly Sins? According to some religious texts it is the deadliest of sins. It is represented by the peacock, an animal considered by most to be vain. I find this most intriguing. Those of us who have looked long and hard into the […]
