The new queer series 'Red Light Diaries' refuses to look away](https://www.out.com/voices/red-light-diaries-micheal-ighodaro-hiv) _2026-08-14 · Micheal Ighodaro · Out Magazine_ America has been here before. It knows what it looks like when HIV is ignored: gay men dying of AIDS while the government looked away, friends becoming caregivers, and people taking to the streets with ACT UP because silence was costing lives. That history should make today’s cuts to HIV services — and renewed attacks on queer lives — impossible to treat as anything other than a warning. The… ## [How being the 'fun gay uncle' prepared me for fatherhood](https://www.out.com/voices/fun-gay-uncle-fatherhood-adoption) _2026-08-11 · Stephen Walker · Out Magazine_ For years, I’ve happily embraced my role as the “fun uncle.” You know the type — the one who’s always up for an adventure, ready with a laugh and maybe just a little bit extra. I used to think that role was just about the fun, the gifts, and being the cool uncle. But as I’ve navigated the adoption process, I’ve realized it was actually the most rewarding training ground for becoming a father. My… ## [My mom's brain surgery erased my coming out. So I had to do it again](https://www.out.com/voices/coming-out-mom-brain-surgery) _2026-07-31 · Trey Toler · Out Magazine_ My mom was on a roll, cycling through names from my childhood the way she did when she was feeling good – checking in on people I hadn't thought about since graduation. I answered, filled in what I knew, and made up the rest. The usual. Then her questions drifted somewhere else. "Is she married now?" she asked about the last girl I'd dated by name, before I came out, four years prior. "She was… ## [Go Ask Alex: I came out as bi, and my friend called me a 'fake lesbian.'

Don’t let the right weaponize our grief](https://www.out.com/voices/berlin-pride-attack-politics) _2026-07-29 · Alexander Cheves · Out Magazine_ Last Saturday burned hot and beautiful in Berlin. I woke up late and joined hundreds of thousands of people marching through the city for Christopher Street Day , our biggest Pride event. Several Pride events happened that weekend, but I went to the big one because my boyfriend worked a shift that day at a shop in Schöneberg, Berlin’s classic gayborhood , near the start of the parade route, and I… ## [Is 'House of the Dragon's Ser Gwayne Hightower gay?](https://www.out.com/gay-tv-shows/house-dragon-gwayne-hightower-gay) _2026-07-28 · Jade Delgado · Out Magazine_ Note : This post contains spoilers for HBO's House of the Dragon season 3, episode 6.

I spent 35 years of my working life hiding my orientation as well as the fact that I've been in a 46-year relationship. Still am and as in love as the day I met him.

Lindsey Graham’s body is still warm , and already the salacious stories are starting.
