Reason First: Gay Guys Go Gangsta!
It has been (falsely) assumed that gay men are feeble weaklings who can’t hold their own when it comes to throwing hands. Some people automatically assume that just because a male is a power bottom that he can’t be strong enough in a fight. No truth can be found in this scenario.

The Prince’s New Name
Long ago, before I ever met a transgender person, I thought that being transgender was weird and a little gross. I thought that, because that was what I had been taught by my parents and others, and also because I didn’t really understand what transgender was.

Abbott’s Audacious Administrative Act
Congratulations to Governor Greg Abbott of Texas. He boldly took a stance regarding transgender rights of children in his state by ordering professional caregivers and service providers of children (including educators) to report any gender affirming treatment on children as child abuse. This is an excellent political move to end the Transgender Tyranny!

Ozzie
Ozzie furiously typed out a message on their phone. It was time to let the world know exactly how they felt. They had been silent for too long. If Ozzie didn’t speak now, they would likely never be able to again. There was so much to say, but a sentence or two would have to do. But it had to be perfect. Their message had to reach as many people as possible and it had to be absolutely clear. There could be no room for doubt.

Everything makes sense
For most of my life, I've never given relationships a lot of thought. I never knew why, just that it's never been a big priority in my life. Even when I thought of getting a boyfriend, the idea was always better. I never understood my friends when they talked about their crushes or boyfriends. Whenever I saw the people they found attractive, I could never see it. Then there's the obvious stuff on television and never understood why somebody would fall in love or pursue a person after only laying eyes on them. Or on reality TV when two people would hook up after knowing each other for only a few days.

The Heterosexualisation of Queerdom
The Heterosexulaisation of Queerdom (an Ode to Maddy Morphosis) Of all the shows that Netflix has lost to the streaming wars, no loss has been more consequential than RuPaul’s Drag Race. That loss is beyond simply being a show that is a little less convenient to watch now. Drag Race’s presence on Netflix was almost as important as the show itself, because it introduced the show to an audience who need to see themselves in the media.

Two mothers = a father?
Nothing better illustrates the persistence of the dissymmetry of the sexes than the confrontation of each with the question of procreation. Like everyone else, homosexuals answer this question and, until now, they had no choice but to turn to someone of the other sex.
