CALLING ALL RUSSIAN LESBIANS

In Germany there are more than 2,000,000 Russian speakers. At 10% that means 200,000 gay and lesbian Russians. There's loads of Russian TV, radio, magazines etc, but nearly all for straight Russians. In mother Russia there's even less stuff for LGBT Russians – they are suppressed. So Sanatorium are starting a new trend. On Sunday 8th starting 9pm they are having "Drei L Party" – the Russian lesbian night. Russian lesbians, their friends and admirers are invited . Expect the best European dance hits and favourites from the Russian LGBT scene, brought to you by DJ Kavka. Club Sanatorium is at Frankfurter Allee 23 Berlin-Friedrichshain.

UN COMMITTEE TICKS OFF RUSSIANS

It's official, things are getting worse in Russia. A new report by the UN Human Rights Committee highlights abuses in Russia and calls on the Kremlin to bring in a number of reforms. The panel said it was concerned about violence against LGBT Russians and police harassment. It said that people have been assaulted or even killed because they were gay or lesbian and that there was "systematic discrimination against individuals on the basis of their sexual orientation".

US HIV/AIDS BAN TO BE LIFTED

iBoy tells us that President Obama will lift the 22 year old ban against HIV/AIDS sufferers from entering the USA. The new ruling should come into force at the beginning of 1010, so you won't have to lie on those visa immigration forms any more. Read more on CNN.

HATE CRIME BILL PASSED IN US

GAY BERLIN IN NOVEMBER

It was a great day for gay East Berliners 20 years ago on the 9th November. The DDR (East German government) had allowed the first gay film "Coming Out" to be made. It was premiered at Klub Kino International on that day but was a total flop. Nobody came. Why? Because the Berlin wall was being knocked down that very day. Happily after that terrible start, Coming Out, has now achieved cult status.

Getting on to the more mundane stuff, there's spooky free beer at Connection on Saturday October 31st and the next day on November 1st it's Pork's 1 Year Anniversary Party with Bruce Labruce & Tron Jeremy. Bruce Labruce will also be at SchwuZ on the 20th. Sunday 8th there's a new Russian lesbian night at Sanatorium. Saturday 21st Annie Nightingale (famous old BBC Radio 1 DJ) is headlining at Maria. Cockaigne came back on 10th October and their next party is on 28th November at Tape club. Then there's something dirty and something clean at Stage club. It's gay Bukkake on Friday 20th and a foam party on Friday 27th. Gay Bukkake? "Bukkake is a sexual practice that features a person being ejaculated on by several men." We can't see that really working.
