It's Summertime and I predict that it will be so hot and sunny that we all will need a little shade to get us through it. This issue we want to address a subject so popular in our community that it often doesn't get talked about (Why are gays so shady?) It is important that we talk about what shade is and what it looks like from different perspectives in the gay community. Shade Like You Have Never Seen Before, Pg 18.
This year I selected sexy brilliant out athlete DeMarco Majors as our 2013 'Most Beautifullest' Man Alive. He shares his journey and lesson with us.
Contributing writer Rob Smith shares the significance of Jason Collins being black and gay in 2013 on Pg 6.
Also, we have an exclusive excerpt from Stanley Bennett Clay's new novel, "Aching For It", as well as, ballroom rock star Twiggy Garçon sharing his Kiki movement with the House of Puccui. It's Summertime people, it's hot. We need shade, the healthy kind; but above all let's grow and evolve into our greatest selves.
