Feds Holding Summits for Lesbian Farmers

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is holding summits to promote the role of lesbian farmers as a part of its “Rural Pride” campaign.

The agency is working with singer and LGBT activist Cyndi Lauper for a “day of conversation” about the struggles of gay and transgender individuals in rural America. The agency says its wants to change the perception of what it means to be a farmer in America away from the “white, rich male.”

The latest summit, first reported by the College Fix, will be held on August 18 at Drake University in Iowa.

“The Office of the Assistant Secretary of Civil Rights, in collaboration with the National Center for Lesbian Rights and The True Colors Fund, will engage with LGBT rural communities across the country to host the LGBT Rural Summit Series,” the USDA said. “Each series will offer a unique opportunity for USDA and other federal agencies to share information relating to policies, programs, and services that exist to protect, promote and strengthen LGBT rural communities.”

There’s nothing like a bunch of lesbians gathering around the country store talking about the weather and the price of wheat.

Toni Basil was a great dancer. She (and her dance troupe) invented pop-locking. From early 70s:

I always wondered where lesbians came from.

Hoping they're organic.

“Wait, wait. You mean Lesbians are grown? I thought they were born that way.”

They must be self-pollinators.

Little minions in D.C. are being paid good money to come up with this shit. Do the crops and livestock give a crap which way they swing?

What gives the government the authority to promote these “feel good” programs? This crap must stop.

“Do gay and lesbian farmers farm differently than straight farmers?”

They have a different approach to animal husbandry.

Did anyone put a pencil to this program to see if it is cost efficient? Are there lots of lesbian farmers that need some outreach?
