Ever-vigilant SFist reader Robert Haaland tipped us off today to KGO talker Pete Wilson (not to be confused with the former governor, or the Canadian pro wrestler) pointing some love-related criticism at local gaydad Bevan Dufty and lesbimom Rebecca Goldfader. According to Pete (the radio guy, not the former Treasurer of the Kensington and Chelsea Conservative Association), Bevan and Rebecca have done their new son [UPDATE: and by "son," of course," what we really......

Congratulations to Supervisor Bevan Dufty and his opposite-sex gay partner Rebecca Goldfader, on the birth of their daughter Sidney Maely Goldfader-Dufty on Monday! (You may remember that Dufty and Goldfader are both gay and continue to see same-sex partners, but have decided to co-parent Sydney together.) Just two days before Kimberly Guilfoyle! Sidney's 6 pounds 9 ounces, the family is doing well, and Bay Guardian political editor Steven T. Jones had no involvement in the......

Congratulations, Supervisor Bevan Dufty and Rebecca Goldfader! They're expecting a baby in October.
"Wait a minute!" you say. "Isn't Dufty gay?" And those of you who go to the Menlo Clinic or take her pilates classes might also be thinking, "And isn't Rebecca a lesbian?" Well, sure -- Dufty and Goldfader are what the Bay Area Reporter calls an "opposite-sex gay couple," who've committed to a relationship where they both date other people (though neither of them is seeing anyone right now) but will rely on each other for support and to raise their child.
The whole thing sounds vaguely sitcommy -- Goldfader and Dufty met at the Gold's Gym, where both of them were taking step aerobics classes. (Grapevine!) They've been trying since 2004, when they hired a gay male midwife to do the inseminations, and both of them giggle about the tremendous effort Dufty was putting in to get his sperm samples. "Sometimes he would come out of the bathroom sweating!" They're thinking about getting a duplex and live on separate floors -- but Dufty has to make sure any house they buy is in District 8 (the famously expensive Castro and Noe Valley district) so he can run for reelection in November. We can't wait for the wacky episode where the babysitter Goldfader hires turns out to be an ex- of Dufty's, culminating in some kind of pratfall at the Board of Supervisors meeting that night.
