You’ve Been Blocked: The Search for Gay Male Perfection is a provocative discussion exploring various ways gay men were restricted from their true selves. Many were fundamentally blocked after being raised to be straight boys, even though they are not. In childhood, gay men commonly learn to take care of and “accommodate others” by repressing their true selves; instead of healthy development and self-respect, they seek external approval from parents, teachers, and peers, for example, for being something they are not.

"Durante siglos fue el silencio; ahora, muchos buscamos las palabras. Libros como El fin del armario nos ayudan a romper moldes, prejuicios, ignorancias. Y a encontrarlas, a aprender a hablar de estos tiempos en que la sexualidad y los géneros ya se dicen en un plural que crece y crece." — Martín Caparrós. Nadie es realmente libre si la libertad no es para todos. De allí que El fin del armario, una crónica brillante de los cambios vividos por lesbianas, gays, trans y bisexuales en el siglo xxi, no se haya escrito sólo para ellos, sino para lectores y lectoras de todas las orientaciones sexuales e identidades de género.

Fem unge Venstrefolk – dem som kommer til at tegne fremtidens Venstre – præsenterer deres bud på et borgerligt-liberalt samfund. De tager et opgør med fortidens politik – både de socialdemokratiske og de borgerlige regeringer – og fortæller, hvor det efter deres mening er gået galt for det borgerlige projekt. Deres hovedtese er, at politikerne har gjort folk til klienter i et system. Frie individer har deponeret deres selvstændighed hos staten. De problemer, som vores land står overfor, bliver ofte besvaret med mere stat, flere regler, mere indgriben.

In September 2004, I was diagnosed with HIV and Hepatitis C. Only in the following year did I realize the impact that these medical diagnoses had on my life as I started putting my life together after dealing with meth and homelessness. This book is about that journey of recovery. Gay men struggle with many issues—from age to HIV—as we strive to understand how to fit into this culture. It’s dawning on some of us that we are now the adults in the room, no longer the pretty young thing at the end of the bar.

Celebrating the Spectrum: The Historical and Cultural Journey of Gay Pride is a riveting exploration into the early days of the LGBTQ+ rights movement. Spanning from the inception of clandestine advocacy groups to the explosive Stonewall Uprising, this comprehensive study provides an in-depth examination of pivotal moments that have shaped the course of the movement and the fight for equality.

Gay bars have been closing by the hundreds. The story goes that increasing mainstream acceptance of LGBTQ+ people, plus dating apps, have rendered these spaces obsolete. Beyond that, rampant gentrification in big cities has pushed gay bars out of the neighborhoods they helped make hip. Who Needs Gay Bars? considers these narratives, accepting that the answer for some might be: maybe nobody. Greggor Mattson embarks on a journey across the country to paint a much more complex picture of the cultural significance of these spaces, inside "big four" gay cities, but also beyond them.

Unless you yourself want to be in a gay relationship, then it really does not matter what you believe about gay Christians.
