There are few things that get me as riled up as being asked, "If there's a HuffPost Gay Voices, why is there no HuffPost Straight Voices?"

If we're in the business of raising awareness on sexual diversity, of fighting discrimination against LGBT people, of sharing stories, we need to take an incisive look at what we do and how we are executing our work as narrators of reality.

Tony Sweet has done more than make his own dreams come true; he's given a platform to a diverse and dynamic group of hosts.

I challenge the local, national, and international queer press to step back and look at the bigger picture. I suggest that you work harder to be journalists instead of just lazily stirring the pot we have been placed in by those who would do us harm.

Art, including television comedy, is meant to hold a mirror to society. While holding that mirror, Hollywood should give lesbians the fair and equal consideration they give gay men.
