Score one more for the hetero ally column
6 Comments Published September 28th, 2006 in Go hetero ally go!.A rousing cheer for hetero ally par excellence, author of the blog Disney Wonder Baby. She “totally support[s] lesbian couples as mothers and here’s why.”
I was directed to this site by a note about it inLesbianFamily.org, a fantastic site parsing and listing scads and scads of lesbo family blogs and more. One of its blog categories is “Supportive Hetero Family Blogs,” of which there are a dozen (& counting). Check ‘em out.
Hell I’m so pro-ally I’m making a little blog category for it (what else? “Go hetero ally go!”). So’s I can arrange all the happy posts referencing hetero allys and look at them in a grouping from time to time, and sigh contentedly about how AMOR VINCIT OMNIA, people.
[Update: The publisher of Babes in Blogland, to which the Disney Wonder Baby gal referred in her post, recently set up an LGBT bloggers category. The site in general is a compendium of bloggers who are making or raising babies.]

Lesbian Dad is written by a parent who answers to the name "Baba" and works toward a world in which amor does indeed vincit omnia. 
You may also want to check out Atticus Circle (http://www.atticuscircle.org), a new organization for straight allies in support of LGBT rights. I’m not affiliated with them, but wrote about them when they launched in July: http://mombian.com/2006/07/19/atticus-circle-organizes-straight-allies-for-lgbt-rights/

Thank you, Dana! Per usual, you are a gurgling font of information. If Mombian ever went dark, we’d all have to fly our rainbow flags half-mast, and then start scrambling quick.
how does one join the hetero allies? is there an international chapter?

Hey there, I run the site (Babes in Blogland) that DWB was discussing in her entry. I’d like to welcome you to join my blogroll listings — just clue me in to child #1’s birth month and year and your partner’s EDD, if you would. I did a cursory search here on your site but couldn’t find the info (and yes, no doubt it’s RIGHT THERE like on the header or something, but I couldn’t find it).
Muchas gracias!
Ayelet, if there were an int’l chapter–and you know during my next fit of procrastination I will search for it–you’d be a charter member. We all miss you all, big time.
Thank you, S! Will do, for kid #1 & kid #2 (still en route). I will happily update the post, too, to reflect your new LGBT category. And bless you for that little “embrace diversity” flag thingy in the upper right corner!
