Filmmaker Ian L. Haddock creates multiple spaces where Black queer men and women recount their experiences navigating social stigma attached to being something other than straight. In the film, LGBT advocate Harrison Guy discusses visiting churches as part of the choir, discovering “hate sermons”, and fragile masculinity.

Many parents are told to explore surgery months after their children are born – clitorectomy, vaginectomy, and labiaplasty to name a few. The experiences are vastly different as well.

The Department of Health and Human Services Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report says approximately 2,000 U.S. service members and their beneficiaries, of an estimated 12,000 who could benefit, have accessed HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP).
per HIV.org:
Among 769 service members prescribed PrEP between February 2014 and June 2016, 87% were men who have sex with men. African Americans accounted for 19% of those prescribed PrEP, compared with 47% who were white.
Approximately 350 new HIV infections are diagnosed in members of the U.S. military services, with most infections acquired within the United States.
The highest rates of new military diagnoses are in men and African Americans. Blacks are disproportionally affected, and most new diagnoses occur among men who have sex with men (MSM).
In a survey of military health care providers, 49% rated their knowledge of PrEP as poor, and only 29% reported ever having prescribed PrEP. In addition, 51% of the providers indicated a need for more clear evidence of PrEP’s safety or efficacy.

While many companies continue to deny promotions to their LGBT employees citing half-cocked fairytales, a new report, Examining the Impact of LGBT Senior Leadership Representation on Business Outcomes, tells the truth. Wisconsin LGBT Chamber of Commerce partnered with Dr. Jennica Webster from Marquette University to administer this survey that investigates the impact of sexual minorities on business outcomes.
“This study supports what we have been saying for years — having LGBT people in leadership positions, whether it as a CEO, a business owner, a part of senior management or on the Board of Directors, is good for a business’s bottom line,” said Jason Rae, President & CEO of the Wisconsin LGBT Chamber of Commerce. “Simply put, diversity is good for business.”
Companies with LGBT leaders reported better business outcomes including workforce quality and utilization, human resource practices, and social economic responsibility.

Honestly, this post has been on my radar for a long time and your comments on the post snatched from this tumblr profile would be amazing. These are ten reasons older trade might be the way to go.
10. Experience – from the bedroom to the boardroom, older guys usually, though not always, have a better sense of what’s going on. And will be happy to share it with someone younger/not in the know.
9. Mature Physicality – I’m constantly amazed that there’s so many younger men who are physically interested in a more mature body, whether it be for the hair, the salt & pepper color, a belly, those distinguishing lines in the face — whatever it may be, there are younger guys who specifically look for those traits.
