World Bear Day, dedicated to raising awareness about various bear species, has also become a celebration of the bear subculture in the LGBTQ+ community, where hairy, masculine gay men embrace their identities.

Graham Platner abruptly canceled a campaign event at a New York City gay bar shortly after The Advocate reached out to inquire about the event, leaving the reasoning unclear.

"I've heard some people say, 'Oh, I've watched the show,' or 'I've read the series, and that was the first queer romance I ever read,' says Stacy Boyd, executive editor at Harlequin Books, who works directly with Reid. 'So it's opening doors that haven't been opened.'"

The president spent the weekend celebrating the death of one of his political foes, former special counsel and FBI Director Robert Mueller, posting, 'Good. I'm glad he's dead,' on social media.

Clavicular has made the decision to come out to the public as Bisexual, he doesn't want this to change the outlook he gives to his fans. 'I've always felt more comfortable around guys my entire life... there's a reason why I do a lot of content with Drago & Cookie.'

Bill Maher stated, 'The Pentagon banned photographers this week for the briefings because Pete Hegseth said some of the pictures of him looked unflattering. Pete wants you to know two things about our military: This is the new alpha male, very masculine, non-woke military. Also, don't get my bad side.'

Maria explains that Russia's non-religious stance means anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment is not driven by the Bible, unlike in the United States. Instead, it originates from prison culture, particularly after Stalin's release of inmates post-WW2.

Kanyarat Ruangrung stated, 'No worries, you can ask. I'd say I'm queer, I don't really like putting labels on love, I just go with what feels right.'

Over 3.5 million viewers tuned in for the Tell Me Lies finale, which marked the culmination of three seasons following a group of girls who become friends during their freshman year at the fictional Baird College and eight years of relationships, affairs, tears, and, naturally, the titular lies. "I'm like, 'Oh my God, and this happens and this happens and this happens and this happens,' Missal recalled. "So many bad things that I'm just processing the trauma of it all."

Tell Me Lies actor Cat Missal has confirmed that she is gay, revealing that she is currently in a relationship with a woman. The 26-year-old American actress plays Bree in hit Hulu series Tell Me Lies, which came to a close following the recently-released third season. Speaking to Teen Vogue about the show's end - the last episode aired on 17 February - Missal succinctly explained why she won't have to deal with the types of toxic men that defined Tell Me Lies.

Breaking news: There are gay people in positions of power in Silicon Valley in 2026. That not-so-surprising fact is the center of Wired's latest cover story, which hit the internet Thursday. The internet immediately reacted, in part thanks to some, uh, unusual imagery that accompanied the article. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. The handshake cover wasn't the only bizarre choice. Inside, the magazine used an image of a musclebound man with San Francisco's Salesforce Tower between his legs.

Palmer's declaration of asexuality doesn't mean that she experiences absolutely no romantic feelings towards others (which is known as "aromanticism," or "aro" for short). In fact, asexual people can have partners just as other LGBTQ+ people do, and some even choose to engage in sexual activity from time-to-time, just as predominantly straight- or gay-identified individuals might sexually engage with people of different genders without ever identifying as bisexual or pansexual.

I'm transmasc but not out at work, and each time Alex is misgendered I also feel invalidated and even a bit unsafe. This hasn't impacted my work necessarily, but it has impacted how I view and feel comfortable with my co-workers. I know I'm expecting a lot from people with Harry Potter and Bible quotes in their offices, but I feel like they should at least be trying.

Are there "gay names"? We would say there aren't, but that hasn't stopped internet speculation on the matter. One gay man went viral last week with his suggestion of the 'Top 3 Gayest Names'. Hunter Cassidy says he's an expert in the field, but we think that expertise comes mainly from the fact that he's worked in a gay bar and presumably met lots of gay men.

The clip begins with the Aussie icon and staunch LGBTQ+ ally being driven through the Italian countryside in a motorcycle sidecar, her hair flowing in the wind, with the driver decked out in black leathers. She is dropped off outside the Masseria and the motorcyclist removes their helmet to reveal themselves as Marlowe. "Ta-ra, love!" Marlowe tells Minogue. "Ciao, Bella," Minogue replies, with a wave of her hand.

You can't miss it, the giant Crossbar flanked by two stylised crosses in black on the whitewashed outside walls glares down the street, a stone's throw from Brighton's Churchill Square. Outside is the narrow shelf that the co-owner Lucy Tallant, the DIY enthusiast of the pair, attached to the wall for those wanting to hang around outside. As she worked on that shelf, two girls walked past and one proclaimed: Yeah, they're opening a lesbian club.

New Orleans is a city that knows how to have a good time - after all, its unofficial motto is "Laissez les bons temps rouler," which translates to "Let the good times roll." The LGBTQ+ community knows how to have a good time too, and queer people have long played a key role in the Big Easy's biggest party of the year, Mardi Gras, which falls next Tuesday.

In an interview last week with the American LGBTQ+ publication Them, when asked about her penchant for taking roles in films featuring LGBTQ+ characters (say, The Favourite or Heartstopper), the actor said that she feels that she has a foot in various camps. Throughout my whole life, I've had arguments with people where I've always felt sort of nonbinary I've never felt massively feminine in my being female.

"promote DEI and radical gender ideology."

As Olympic ice dancers swirl across our TV screens this week, we get to play another round of everyone's favorite figure-skating game: Are they or aren't they dating? I'll give you one free answer to this Milan Cortina pop quiz: Team USA's gold medal hopefuls, Madison Chock and Evan Bates, got married in 2024. But the answer to ice dancing's perpetual are-they-or-aren't-they question isn't always so straightforward.
