LGBTQIA+ media is under threat. Queer content is censored by tech conglomerates who amplify bigotry and push out AI slop — so we receive less financial support than ever.
When our community is muzzled and intolerance intensifies, we need queer media more than ever. Your donation means we can continue paying queer journalists to write queer news.

What an excellent mini series. Great characters and stories. I will always love you Olympia.
I have this in a boxset dvd with ‘Further tales’ and ‘More Tales’..is it the same content? mine are all 2 disc with the mini-series running over the 2 discs.
What a great series, ahead of it’s time and still relevant now. I bought it on VHS but I have to have it on DVD as the tapes are wearing thin!
such an amazing series of the great stories and characters…
an important part of our history, & a great portrayal of a m2f transexual
Loved the books! A must for all!
Maupin’s masterpiece pinned me on black screen in Turkey years ago, it was eye opening to see the American gay and lesbian experience from a western perspective. Love this clever and twisting TV show.
Who does not?
