Paradise Lost – It’s in the Air

Global Tragedies and Gay Rights
@2018 Jan Miller Corran It’s been many months since I’ve written an article for Epochalips.

Who’s Your Daddy? by Kimberly Dark
The first time I found myself smitten with a Daddy was back in the 90s. But was it the first time? I didn’t yet know what I knew. I talked to my friend on the phone. She wasn’t just another sociologist, she was one of my significant mentors . “Why is this Daddy-thing hot though? […]

October Lesbian Startalk
October is the month of Libra, relationship-oriented and sometimes other-centered, to a fault. Ruled by Venus, Libra is artistic.

Though harmony-seeking, don’t underestimate Libra’s ability to be a formidable opponent when necessary. Libra’s planetary […]

Rethinking Baghdad – In a Better Place
Me: “I wish we lived in Baghdad’s Jewish Quarter.” Mom: “What? The Jewish Quarter?” Raising her left eyebrow, “Are you crazy?” I was longing for her nightmare. Romanticizing the Jewish Quarter of Baghdad was the height of stupidity. “Booma” (unwise owl), she chided lovingly. Here we were, in California, in her San Francisco kitchen, with […]
