  • Ryan Seacrest Dances with Julianne Hough at ‘
    Ryan Seacrest Dances with Julianne Hough at ‘Footloose’ Party The Footloose premiere after-party was all about cutting loose for Julianne Hough and boyfriend Ryan Seacrest, according to UsMagazine.com. Although Seacrest is usually not one to dance, he made an exception for Dancing With the Stars alum Hough to show his support for her accomplishments. “Julianne was so happy because apparently Ryan never dances and this was the exception he made for her, because he was so happy for her,” said a party guest. The Footloose star admits that she didn’t expect her beau to hit the dance floor. “It’s like really awkward, but really cute,” she said of Seacrest’s skills. “My brother Derek does a better impression.” How do you know when your partner really cares about you? Cupid’s Advice: It can be difficult to read the signs when it comes to deciphering whether your partner truly cares about you. Here are some ways to tell: 1. Outside of comfort zone: If your significant other steps outside their comfort zone and does something for you that he or she would not normally do, it’s a safe bet that they care about you. Ryan Seacrest did just that by dancing with girlfriend Julianne Hough. 2. It’s the little things: When your partner buys you flowers “just because” and picks up small things here and there that remind them of you, that’s a great sign. It means you’re constantly playing a part in his or her life. 3. Show off: When your mate shows you off to his or her friends, it means they’re not ashamed of you and, in fact, are proud to be with you.

Dewees: “Ain’t My Mama’s Broken Heart”: The Mothers and Daughters of Hill “Ain’t My Mama’s Broken Heart”: The Mothers and Daughters of Hillbilly Feminism Alyssa Dewees, University of Florida Abstract: The women of country music have long defied the genre's patriarchal associations and used their music as a platform for subversive social messages about gender inequality, and in the past several decades, the country music establishment has grown more willing to alter its image and accommodate these feminist themes. Because country music is marketed and understood by many of its fans as a representation of a lifestyle, this shift in expectations for women’s social roles and possibilities in the genre has an impact on the women who identify themselves with the particular rural, down-home image country music aims to define.

Marriage equality is now the law of the land, the Boy Scouts ended its discriminatory ban based on sexual orientation, and an LGBT group marched in New York City’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade for the very first time. And as TIME noted, our nation has reached a “transgender tipping point.” Over 20 million people watched Caitlyn Jenner come out, and ABC looked to GLAAD as a valued resource for that game-changing interview. MESSAGE FROM THE CEO & PRESIDENT But even with these significant advancements, at GLAAD, we still see a dangerous gap between historic policy advancements and the hearts and minds of Americans—in other words, a gap between equality and acceptance. To better understand this disparity, GLAAD commissioned a Harris Poll to measure how Americans really feel about LGBT people. The results, released in our recent Accelerating Acceptance report, prove that beneath legislative progress lies a dangerous layer of discomfort and discrimination.
