It’s our mission as an LGBTQ+ media brand to make sure we put stories of LGBTQ+ joy, inspiration, success, love, allyship, and excellence at the forefront of what we do, to combat this overbearing narrative. In this new issue alone we have one of the world’s leading female performers, P!nk, pledge her allegiance to creating a safer, more empathetic world for all. Adam Lambert speaks passionately about his position as a visible member of the community, and the work he’s doing to uplift vulnerable trans+ people through his foundation. We have three prominent cisgender queer females write letters of solidarity with the trans+ community. And there’s rising British comedian Jordan Gray speaking on her experience as a trans performer that doesn’t centre on her identity, but rather the fact that she’s incredibly good at humorous observation of the everyday.
