Validation Is Not An Outside Thing. Top Story - June 2024.
Hey Baby, Can we start by taking a second to celebrate the fact that you are here today? Yes! For some of us, it’s a small victory on life that we get to claim every time we wake up. You and I both know we haven’t always wanted to be here. Choosing to stay is a victory. So, congratulations but also thank you! If you are anything like me at your age, I know you are rolling your eyes, right now. But give me a second. It’s a little sappy—I’m aware—but I believe that at every point in life, we all have something to contribute. It doesn’t have to be huge. It can be a simple word to a person who needs to hear it at that very moment. So there you go.

IS FEMINISM IN MALE NATURAL
Ask yourself these questions before reading further! You discovered one of your siblings, children, relatives or family member always act feminin. Would you because of that hate the person? hurt the person or kill the person because of feminism? The same way you love them, kindly spread the love to the ones you're not blood realated with and protect them.

Dear Younger Me's
Dear Younger Me's, This is a letter to all the younger me’s in this world right now. The Queer youth that has for whatever reason hidden themselves away. Hidden their true, beautiful light inside for any number of reasons. Whether you are hiding who you love, who you really are, or any other aspect of yourself that for now you fear others knowing, this letter is for you … and for the younger me that never had this letter.

"A Chance Meeting at Lost and Found: The Love Story of Jen and Lisa"
It was a sunny Saturday morning, and Jen was sipping her coffee at the local café, Lost and Found, a spot she loved for its mismatched furniture and cozy vibes. She had her laptop open, pretending to work, but really, she was people-watching. The café was buzzing with its usual weekend crowd, but one person stood out.

Time Warp Revisited: The Rocky Horror Phenomenon
Being in San Francisco in the 70s was like living in the heart of a cultural revolution, one that I never wanted to leave. I can still remember those days, wandering through Haight-Ashbury, stepping through a portal from the peace-and-love hippie era into the emerging LGBTQ+ scene. Those were the days of real community spirit, where every Sunday felt like a mini-revolution, cheering on the Sandinistas in Nicaragua, feeling like we were all part of this huge, world-changing movement. We had hope.
