Talking Shit

This event has passed.

Long before Stranger associate editor Dominic Holden was old enough to be a bad homo, he was a terrible Catholic. He drank too much at his first communion, and then, to top it off, accidentally revealed to his dear Catholic mother that he would never, ever eat pussy. Not that he's great at being gay—have you seen how he dresses? The dude even manages to clash with a rainbow. Nevertheless, for four years before gay marriage became legal in Washington State, Holden used his tarnished Christian and gay bona fides to call up good, red-blooded Christians and ask the question on all liberal gays' minds: Why were they so obsessed with the idea of two gay men holding hands atop a wedding cake? He cold-called campaign donors. He interviewed church-goers. He infiltrated organizing meetings to question the motivation behind their anti-gay organizing. And the answers—which he explains in this one-man, one-hour show—weren’t the answers you'd expect.
