nytimes.comLong before K.D. Lang transformed herself from a country artist into an androgyne pop idol and sex symbol, smoldering in a man’s suit on the cover of Vanity Fair being mock-shaved by the supermodel Cindy Crawford; long before Melissa Etheridge sold millions of copies of her 1993 album, “Yes I Am,” and in so doing came out as a gay rock star; and long before the singer-songwriter Jill Sobule’s “I Kissed a Girl” hit the Billboard charts, the folk singer Alix Dobkin chopped her hair off, formed a band and recorded “Lavender Jane Loves Women.” Released in 1973, it was the first album recorded and distributed by women for women — arguably the first lesbian record.

Scottish chef Tom Kitchin hits back at bullying claims and vows he is ‘hell-bent’ on being good employer
The owner and head chef of the one Michelin star restaurant The Kitchin in Leith has admitted there were times in his career when he lost his temper with staff – but he denies being physically violent. Ahead of the awaited 2022 Michelin star announcements this week, the 44-year-old admitted he was “always chasing culinary accolades”, but said there were moments “where the way I acted was not correct”. Kitchin, one of the youngest ever to win a Michelin star at the age of 29, has come under fire in recent months after former staff members came forward alleging mistreatment while working under the Kitchin Group between 2008 and 2019.
