This is one journalist's - gay and Catholic himself - compelling picture of those quiet heroes who responded to human suffering when so much of society told them to look away.

In Poor Queer Studies, Matt Brim shifts queer studies away from its familiar sites of elite education toward poor and working-class people, places, and pedagogies. Brim shows how queer studies also takes place beyond the halls of flagship institutions: in night school; after a three-hour commute; in overflowing classrooms at no-name colleges; with no research budget; without access to decent food; with kids in tow; in a state of homelessness.

Wie Sex überraschend einfach zu einem lustvollen Erlebnis werden kann, zeigt Gianna Bacio auf ihre typische Art: ehrlich, direkt und auf Augenhöhe.

Muchas personas no llegan a vivir su sexualidad en congruencia con su identidad por haber sufrido traumas sexuales, traumas de relación y traumas de amor. Confunden su identidad con la identificación con otros, en muchos casos con el autor de su trauma. Su sexualidad está marcada por esa identificación. En esta obra el autor, al cual avala una experiencia de veinticinco años como terapeuta, expone que hay muchos más traumas sexuales de los que creemos, puesto que muchas veces los abusos sexuales tienen lugar en el propio seno de la familia.

A facsimile guide to the "Gents Loos of London" published originally in 1937 by Routledge. Hailed as the first queer city guide, "For Your Convenience" was first published in 1937. Ostensibly a guide to where a gentleman may find ‘relief’ in the metropolis after "three cups of tea", for those "in-the-know" the information held between its pages offers a much more tantalizing prospect.

In How You Get Famous, journalist Nicole Pasulka raucously documents the rebirth of the New York drag scene, following a group of iconoclastic performers with undeniable charisma, talent, and a hell of a lot to prove. In the past decade, drag has become a place where edgy, competitive showoffs can find security in a callous and over priced city, a shot at real money, and a level of recognition queer people rarely achieve. But can drag keep its edge as it travels from the backroom to the main stage?

Il 16 giugno 1743 sulla strada per Siena un giovane servitore in fuga d'amore con la sua bella viene raggiunto dagli inseguitori; ferito da un'archibugiata, morirà pochi giorni dopo. Componendone le spoglie, all'ospedale si scopre che quel garzone, già in fama di dongiovanni impenitente, è in realtà una donna. Un medico famoso si appassiona al fatto e lo ricostruisce: Caterina Vizzani, questo il suo nome, per otto anni si era finta uomo per poter seguire, al riparo di un'identità maschile, la sua allora illecita inclinazione per le donne.

Both the gay and androphile subcultures present strong dogmatic prescriptions of what it means to be a man who is sexually attracted to other men. Rejecting the rigid views of both the Gay (LGBTQIA+) Community and the Androphilia Movement, Scott Graham presents another perspective for men seeking to figure out who they are in the light of their sexual orientation and the pressures of conformity from LGBTQIA+ leaders who diagnose you with internalized homophobia if you question any part of their social/political agenda.
