Let's talk about bathrooms. First, apologies dear readers if I seem exasperated, I am. This blog should be summarized in one sentence: just let other people pee and mind your own business. Unfortunately, the world is not nice, and certain people currently can't access the most basic of human dignities, so here we are.

Understanding function doesn't equate to good sex. Queer sex is an art, not a recipe. So today, I present to you the fundamentals of pleasure rather than the mechanics of sex:

June is finally here, and that means it’s time to celebrate pride month! In the United States, we use this month to commemorate the 1969 Stonewall Riots, a trans-led uprising against police raids of gay bars in New York City.
