“I don’t feel like we need a nuclear family of our own to have people that care for us, and that we care for in fundamental ways.”
– Benjamin Law, Archer Magazine #9

Welcome to Archer Magazine issue #9: the FAMILY issue.

“In Archer Magazine terms, family doesn’t just refer to nuclear arrangements and reproduction,” writes Archer Magazine founder Amy Middleton in her editor’s letter. “This issue features articles on chosen family, non-monogamous relationships, the stark reality of partnerships, cultural
context, activism and community-based decisions.“

Polyamory, infidelity, HIV and gay men, trans kids, fat femme visibility.
We don’t mean the traditional kind of family,
we mean the most important kind.
