There are a lot of holidays during the winter months, with many annoying and bizarre celebrations taking up all our time. With Thanksgiving, to Three Kings Day, New Years Eve, New Years Day, Korean and Chinese New Years, Pagan Solstice, Groundhogs Day, Ramadan, Hanukkah, Boxing Day, Tet, International Sweater Festival, Festivus and yes even Kwanzaa, everyone, and I do mean everyone has a special day to celebrate.
Except LGBT folks. Sure we have National Coming Out day in October, Pride Month in June, Celebrate Bisexuality Day in September, International Drag Day in July and Fat Tuesday for the Bears, but if you take a close look at the winter months, we have nothing, and we receive it in abundance!
So today we’re creating Glitter Day, a winter holiday to celebrate the fabulousness inside all of us. To celebrate all you need is lots of booze, a menorah with rainbow candles, and tons of fucking sequins.
Blogger Michael Lehet joins us to celebrate Glitter Day early and open his Glitter Day presents.
