Underwear Of The Month: Right Round, Baby

Practically everyone on earth has at least one thing on their body they’d like to improve. Except maybe Idris Elba, Chris Hemsworth, and Armie Hammer. [Pardon us while we daydream about a foursome for a few moments.] OK, we’re back. Imperfect bodies might be the problem, but Rounderbum has a solution. You may have seen this innovative apparel company on […]

Stonewall Gets Graphic

Pictures make reading so much better! We think we might’ve actually made it through The Iliad with a few carefully positioned illustrations. But we don’t ever have to worry about epic poems for the rest of our life, focusing instead on reading only what we desire. Of course, our love of text-meets-pictures hasn’t waned, so that’s why our nightstand is […]

Let Them See Beefcake!

The big publishing news this week may be surrounding Howard Stern’s upcoming third book (which we’ve already pre-ordered, BTW), but a new gay book came out this week that caught our attention, too. Buying Gay: How Physique Entrepreneurs Sparked a Movement delves into a secret gay world of the 1950s and 1960s. Marketed as “physique magazines,” a new type of […]

50 & Proud

Turning 50 can be scary. (Trust us, it’s happening to us sooner than we’d like.) But it also represents a monumental achievement, whether as a person or a movement that changed the world. This June marks the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots and the beginning of major change for the LGBTQ communities of the universe. Pride truly began here. […]

Say Yasss To The Dress

What happens when you combine four drag queens from RuPaul’s Drag Race with the premise of a typical TLC reality wedding show? Drag Me Down the Aisle, that’s what. Starring BeBe Zahara Benet, Thorgy Thor, Jujubee, and Alexis Michelle, the show features the zany queens helping a shy bride from Amish country make her big day the biggest (and best) it can possibly be. We definitely do not object. Drag Me Down the AislePremieres Saturday, […]

The I Has It

In fashion, one day you’re in. And the next, you’re out. That Heidi Klum wisdom will some day live alongside Plato and Socrates carved into stone for future generations. Or at least we hope. But speaking of fashion and being out, last week I.M.: A Memoir was released and with it, so many secrets and stories from gay fashion designer Isaac […]

The Men In The Mirror

The buzz at the Sundance Film Festival was so loud, we think we can still hear it. That’s because the hot-button topic of Michael Jackson was back in the spotlight with Finding Neverland, a documentary detailing the two separate experiences of young boys who spent time with the King of Pop at his sprawling estate. Tomorrow night, HBO presents the two-part […]

Teens, Teens, Teens Across The Board

As far as we’re concerned, we’ll never see enough coming-of-age dramas. The themes are so universal that we think they’re powerful in allowing us to relate to others who’ve gone through similar-yet-oh-so-different high school drama. We can only believe that LGBT issues will continue to have greater acceptance when people see a universal struggle that can easily be substituted easily […]

Shady Sounds

Hear ye, hear ye! Bluetooth devices just got really, really shady—and that’s a wonderful thing. Lucyd Eyewear recently launched a killer pair of high-tech glasses: Lucyd LOUD. These stylish frames come loaded with bone-conduction speakers that deliver great sound and the ability to take phone calls without the obstruction of traditional headphones or earbuds. We were a little skeptical about […]

The Master Of Which Craft?

Sorry, Marie Kondo. There’s only ONE home improvement diva in our book and she’s back for an absurdier-than-ever season 2. At Home with Amy Sedaris returns to truTV for a totally off-the-rails second set of episodes pretty much guaranteed to make you pee your panties a little. Especially if you’re able to benefit from a little legal marijuana while consuming every morsel of these craveable, […]
