By Charnice Nelson Once I tried pulling my oversized shirt tighter and arching my back slightly to emphasize the fact that, yes, I have curves. It seemed to make them more uncomfortable than the lineup on my fade. The post In the Right Bathroom appeared first on The Gay & Lesbian Review.| The Gay & Lesbian Review
A street in Boston’s South End.It was during a brief, liminal period that I became a Daddy. I was in the process of moving back to Boston after years in the Bay Area. San Francisco had become too glossy, too curated—a city of filtered light and startup ambition that no longer felt like mine. Boston, with its stubborn seasons and stone-faced honesty, had a gravity I needed. My business was bi-coastal, which meant I was bi-coastal—I spent two long months living out of a suitcase, shuttlin...| glreview.org

Summer may be coming to an end, but Pride is still in full effect! While some people think Pride Month is the only month to enjoy all of the gay festivities, there's many queer celebrations that happen year-round. In fact, the tiny island of Malta is actually considered one of the best, if not the best, place in Europe for anyone in the LGBTQ+ community. Malta's rich gay culture, inclusive society, diverse history, and safe spaces give locals and tourists the opportunity to celebrate their qu...| Outtraveler.com

Even in the heat of summer, Palm Springs is the place to be! The popular southern California city is home to thousands of queer people — in fact, nearly half of the population is made up of out and proud members of the LGBTQ+ community. Although there's plenty of rich LGBTQ+ culture to experience year-round in Palm Springs, Splash House is the prime music festival to attend as a healthy mix of queer people and allies come together to dance under the desert sun for a thrilling weekend.

I couldn’t reconcile such an extreme instruction with what I felt inside. I knew I was different, but I couldn’t explain why. A lot of my male peers were interested in girls, soccer, and Power Rangers. That wasn’t the case for me. I loved drawing and playing with dolls, and I knew I was attracted to the same sex. This was confusing, and it made me feel as though expressing what was inside me was a huge risk. I couldn’t relate to other boys and men at school or home. I didn’t want to...| The Gay & Lesbian Review

Don't say gay? Nice try. Even in Florida, the LGBTQ+ community is gearing up for a very crucial Pride season to prove that queer visibility can't be erased. Known as the largest LGBTQ+ Memorial Day celebration held in North America, Pensacola Pride drew in thousands of tourists as they slapped on Speedos, mingled on the beach, hit up electric circuit parties, and supported local gay bars. Although people correlate many of the major Pride events with the month of June, Johnny Chilsolm's Memori...| Outtraveler.com
Hello friends! Sharing a rainbow list of LGBTQ+ book recommendations for June has always been something that we wanted to do, but didn’t have the chance to put together.

I had a friend who was a medical doctor. He was gay and he was Uyghur, like me. We knew he was HIV positive about a year ago, but he never took any antiviral drugs because he didn’t want his family to find out. Last month, very suddenly he got sick and died just like that — complications from AIDS. His family didn’t even know he was sick, so it was very sudden for them. It’s really sad. There are a lot of young boys, 17 or 18, on Blued. I don’t think any of them understand or know t...| art of life in chinese central asia
