Do we still need Pride?
Pride is a protest. This is a phrase that everyone in the LGBT+ community knows and says proudly. We say it recognition of the battles it took to win our freedom in some countries, and in recognition of the fight still to be had in others.

Trans-women Deserve Pride Too
It’s International Pride Month. For many in the LGBTQ+ community, this is a month of celebration. Globally speaking, I can only hope there are many joyous events to bring our community together. Love is love, right? Everyone should have the right to love who they want to love and live the way they feel is best for them.

How To Be An Ally. Top Story - May 2022.
Every year, LGBTQIA+ events are held in June in honour of Stonewall. As we approach June, it's important to learn how to be inclusive and welcoming during pride month - the one month of the year where the LGBTQIA+ community can be open and celebrated. Or, that's the way it's supposed to be, anyway. Even during pride, a lot of queer youth and adults feel excluded and afraid, especially living in specific communities. As a queer ally, it's important to stand up for your loved ones, and to stand up to those who make us feel threatened or scared.

A death so brutal
In October 1998, Matthew Shepherd was beaten, tortured, tied to a post and left to die by two men he met in a bar. It has been twenty-four years since Matthews murder and Wyoming still doesn’t have a hate crimes law on the books. Why not?

An Open Letter to James Cook University
Dear James Cook University, I have done a lot of things late. I like step back, to think about things, take my time and evaluate. My decision to attend JCU was no different. Neither was my decision to finally be open and honest about my sexuality as I began attending JCU as a mature-aged student. And finally, neither is the choice to pen this open letter, asking you to reconsider your stance against a permanent queer space at JCU.

More Than a Woman
If it sounds haughty to elevate my human status as “more than” anything, I get it. But I am learning to reassemble my internal dialog toward self-worth and self-respect. As other planet-sharers attempt to tell me what I am not, I become increasingly aware of the words I use with myself. So this is for Me and nobody else, but feel free to borrow anything that fits for you, too.

A Handy Guide to Sexuality . Top Story - April 2022.
Hi there! I'm Danny, and I'm pansexual. Growing up, I struggled with a clusterfuck of sexual identities before settling on one that felt like me. As an adult, I've become passionate about acknowledging queer youth and helping them find their way in a world which clearly was not made for us. There's so much out there, and most of it is left unspoken, as if it's sinful or invalid. I want to change this.

The Equability in Sports for Trans-Athletes
Jack delivers a powerful uppercut to Rob’s, his opponent, left jaw, stunning Rob for a brief second. Rob shakes off the blow and tries to counter-attack, but is blocked by Jack. Jack moves quickly to return two quick jabs to the stomach of his ring mate, before going for the head again. Rob starts to staggers slightly, but still attempts to answer back with some blows of his own. One shot is lucky enough to penetrate Jack’s defense, but connects feebly to Jack’s face. Jack knows the end is near and continues to throw a flurry of blows in opposition. With seconds remaining, the competitor eventually falls and is unable to stand up. The bout is over and Jack is victorious. The crowd cheers as Jack is announced the winner by TKO. Jack is satisfied with this win because he knew he was viewed as the underdog, yet he still rose above the challenge and won.

Homosexuality Is Still Taboo?
Because there is no expectation that a child will be of a different sexual orientation than you. Not to mention the discrimination and pain that homosexuals continue to face today. It is up to parents to be sensitive enough to determine whether or not it is appropriate to bring up the subject.
