Welcome to the online humor habitat of GAY – the e-magazine for lesbians with a sense of humor. At GAY, our mission is to provide a creative outlet for lesbians who specialize in humor, whether their talents lie in writing, cartooning, photography, stand up, or some other form of humor with which we are presently unfamiliar (but to which we are highly receptive).
When thinking about GAY, envision Erma Bombeck in her heyday driving a Subaru with a rainbow bumper sticker (and sporting a far cooler wardrobe). That’s what we’re going for with GAY – lesbian-penned humor essays, with a smattering of artwork thrown in to render the e- zine more visually stimulating.
At GAY, we also want to use the e-zine and web site as a publicity forum for lesbian stand up comics and other performers/artists. We’ll feature tour dates in the e-zine, with expanded information available online.
Thanks for visiting the site. We hope you’ll take a look around, like what you see, and come back soon.

GAY'S 7 SILLY QUESTIONS WITH COMEDIAN JOANNE FILAN
At GAY, we're pretty sure that if you ask silly questions to silly people, the end result will be hilarity. Check in often to see which of GAY's featured comedians or staff are weighing in with their answers to our 7 Silly Questions. This week, comedian Joanne Filan takes the challenge.
1. What would we find in your refrigerator right now? It depends how hard you look. At first glance, the stuff looks pretty generic, but if you dig deeper, you may find the last person that asked me that.
2. Which super power would you like to have and why? I'd probably have a useless one, like the ability to wear really heavy earrings.
3. If someone wrote a biography about you, what do you think the title would be? Avatar.
4. What do you think is the most important part of a sandwich? The part where it's done and you can have dessert.
5. Does your toilet paper roll over or under? I don't train my toilet paper.
6. How many golf balls can fit inside a school bus? One - a large, school bus-shaped golf ball.
7. If you were going to the moon, what would you take? Air...and heavy earrings.
