So many older LGBTIQ+ people have experienced trauma and discrimination, so it’s essential we create welcoming spaces to stay connected.

The expectation to be anonymous in addiction recovery seems counterintuitive for LGBTQ+ people who have spent a lifetime fighting to be visible.

Archer partnered with Aesop to promote The Aesop Queer Library Australia, launching on 5 Feb 2024. To celebrate this event, we interviewed three of the writers included in this year’s queer library list.   Bebe Oliver is a descendant of the Bardi Jawi people of the Kimberley region of Western Australia, and an award-winning writer …

G Flip is at the wedding with someone who sells real estate. My editor has informed me her name is Chrishell and she sells real estate on a reality show and apparently some of you queers love her? I am far too sophisticated for reality TV. Now back to Gen Q.

An extract from Yves Rees’ book All About Yves: Notes from a Transition: Tonight, we insist on our existence. Together, we are real.

I want us to reclaim lesbianism from the clammy hands of TERFs. Being a lesbian isn’t about vaginas, femininity, ‘gold stars’ or exclusion.

We have had a lot of cameos this season but the cameo we all want is yet to happen. You all know to whom I am referring: Jenny. Let’s hope she rises from the dead, on the back of a manatee, in the season finale.

Although the pace of change has been slow, I’ve started to notice the ways that marriage equality is changing the wedding industry.

Love thy holy trinity: in the name of the clitoris, the vagina and the holy vulva – amen… And that’s how you masturbate in Campbelltown.

It’s cool to have some demisexual representation and I was really hoping this episode would explore this more, culminating in Carrie and Misty getting hot and heavy. Instead, it literally devolves into poo humour.

Joe is a conversion therapist hired by my parents to make their child less gay. Preferably straight, otherwise committed to celibacy.

When Fletcher says, “This is the type of sapphic drama I live for!” I thought, really? The sapphic drama I live for has way more polycules and vegan nut loafs.

I just had to walk away from my computer and make a chamomile tea to try to calm myself down. Fuck, I hope this show doesn’t get renewed for another season ’cause I can’t go on writing these reviews.

As 2022 comes to a close, we can’t help but get reflective and sentimental – cue the smiling single tear emoji – about all the wonderful articles we’ve edited this year.

It’s important to me that people feel the queer love and joy in my work. It’s important that people are able to see themselves in my work.

Of course, someday I’d love to stand up in front of a crowd and introduce myself as a lesbian.

Have we ever had a woman with a hairy pit on this show? One of the myriad ways this show bears no resemblance to my little queer bubble.

From trans sex to bisexual pride, here are our most read online pieces of 2022.

As I looked around, I realised we had in fact grown up to become the fairies we always dreamed of.

Every character has the exact same narrative arc of finding ‘The One’. No show is interesting if all the characters have the same narrative arc, even more so if the narrative arc is about ‘The One’.

If I had been forced to stay at my Christian school, I would have lived in secrecy, staying quiet during class discussions debating my life.

Being bisexual, just like being a blakfulla, became a solid constant of my identity. Unshakable and unquestionable by those outside of myself.
