IN THE SPIRIT

CREATURE COMFORTS • Décor appears to be in a period of simplicity and softness, probably a reaction to the often ‘humdrum gloom’ of life at the moment. We’re drawn to muted tones, uncomplicated shapes and a sense of familiarity that aids reflection.

SWIM WITHSOUND

TOYOTA COROLLA SEDAN AND FAMILY • Being the world’s top selling car is an impressive accolade, especially if this 12th generation model is 54 years old and one of the most recognisable household names globally.

MUSIC REVIEWS

THE FRAGRANT MASTER UNLEASHED • It is not often that openly gay artists blow up the music industry with their sheer brilliance, whilst being true to the reality of what it is often all about… isolation, rejection, bullying and raw sexuality.

BOOK REVIEWS

NETFLIX RATED PG - PRETTY GAY • Times may have changed, and gay audiences now have a wider variety of gay content to choose from. Netflix provides plenty of LGBTQ films for anybody in search of alternative entertainment outside of the safer mainstream series and films.

‘STRAIGHT-ACTING’ • Preference or problem? Gay culture’s obsession with masculinity hurts masculine and feminine men alike

HUNTERS, SCAVENGERS AND COCOONISTS

THE IMPORTANCE OF POSE • As a mature white South African gay man, I cannot really speak of the ball culture with any sense of true understanding. But I can speak from the heart. I can speak as a gay person whose first queer family were drag queens. I can speak as someone who was deeply affected by my drag family. And I can speak as a person who was deeply, deeply affected by Pose.

MEN AND WATER

MY HONG KONG LOVE SONG • Love has the ability to enable us to do bold and adventurous things, my love story took me to Hong Kong on an impulse, and my lovelorn memory is of a familiar boy in an unfamiliar city.
