Lesbian Group

Hits : 157

This women identified group meets every month on the 3rd Tuesday evening at 6:30 PM to watch a lesbian film or discuss a lesbian book.  This group is open to anyone and has a $5.00 donation fee to cover expenses on movie nights.  Bring a pupu or beverage to share and join in. 

On August 17th we will be viewing and discussing the film "Training Rules".

For more infomation on this film check out this site:  http://www.trainingrules.com/

Training_RulesRene Portland had three training rules during her

26 years coaching basketball at Pennsylvania State University - no drinking, no drugs and

no lesbians. Training Rulesexamines how a wealthy athletic department, enabled by the,

silence of a complacent university, allowed talented athletes, thought to be gay, to be

dismissed from their college team. The film follows the lawsuit filed in 2006 against

Portland and Penn State by student athlete Jennifer Harris. This high profile case ignited

the world of women’s collegiate sports. It inspired the discussions so sorely needed to

end discrimination based on sexual orientation that pervades all organized sport.
