Lately, the only reason British Airways has been making headlines has been because of their slow descent into bankruptcy. But this time they're making headlines for something else: BA announced that it will be pairing up with the International Gay and Lesbian Travel Association.
Richard Tams, the head of Ireland and UK sales for BA, and the European Ambassador of the IGLTA Carlos Kytka have very different views on this partnership.

How many times during Old School or Night at the Roxbury did you stop and longingly whisper to yourself, "God I'd love to slather Will Ferrell all over my naked body?" At least five times, I'm sure.

In a much anticipated (or dreaded) ruling, the California Supreme Court announced this morning that it is upholding the "voter approved" amendment to the state constitution that bans same-sex marriage. The only solace in this ruling is that the Court also ruled that the 18,000 same-sex marriages that occurred between the May 2008 ruling that legalized same-sex marriage and the passage of Proposition 8 on 4 November, 2008 will be recognized as legal marriages.

Today is the day that we're meant to find out if California is going to overturn Proposition 8 so that gay marriage is legal in California.

We women of BitchBuzz like to think we are beyond taboos, but whenever I see an advert for incontinence pads like Tena Lady, or Always Envive, I wince a little and think, ‘Oh God, shoot me when I am 70 and start pissing myself’.
The problem is tough, with childbirth being one of the main causes of Light Adult Incontinence (LAI), it is not just old people who are affected by this embarrassing condition.
