Gay blogs
Earlier this week I went to the Museum of Nice Arts (MFA) Boston to see the Fashioned by Sargentexhibit, which closes in two weeks. This exhibit from the MFA is one of my favorites in recent memory. Perhaps Bostonians more than most Americans are interested in Sargent because of how much of his work has ended up here but it was apparent this exhibit has been embraced by the city. When I remarked about the crowds the day I visited, one of the MFA employees told me the exhibit had been very well attended.
In this exhibit the MFA looks at some of the artist’s most notable portraits and shares how Sargent meticulously dressed and posed each of his subjects; sometimes quite provocatively. A great example is his scandalous portrait of Virginie Amélie Avegno, a.k.a. Madame X, which caused an uproar when it was shown in Paris in 1884 because it emphasized the sexual allure of a married woman. It’s astonishing to think this portrait ruined the reputation of Virginie Amélie Avegno in Parisian society.
In addition to watercolors and his pretty portraits, the exhibit brings many paintings to life by exhibiting the dresses and in some cases accessories besides the pain
Al, age 2
North East, Pennsylvania (1972)
I'm the youngest of 4 kids. I hold 2 older brothers, which proves the "gay theory" where the more older brothers you have, the more likely you could be gay.
I'm not sure exactly what age I knew I was lgbtq+, but I knew I always liked looking at male bodies at summer camp, in gym class, at swim practice, and on TV. And I just thought all guys were feeling that, too. So as long as I wasn't blatantly evident, no one ever said anything to me.
I knew of two pretty "out" guys (well, as out as you could be help then) who were obviously gay. I don't perceive if they ever announced this, but they never seemed to have any problems with it in school.
I was always interested in other things besides sports. I played with Barbie dolls with my three close "girl friends" from the neighborhood. So that might have been a clue. Plus I was always taking Ken's clothes off as often as I could!
As a pre-teen, I used to dance to my 45 records alone in our basement. It was very "Solid Gold" type dancing. And I wonder if any of my family members ever saw me? Surely, they would include known.
I was also fascinated with "celebrity" culture.

The internet makes it so easy to connect, and for LGBTQ+ individuals around the world, blogs and other community sites are a lifeline for many. I remember my preliminary days on the internet, with AIM messenger, Xanga and Livejournal blogs packed of indie song lyrics and emo poetry.
In the vast digital landscape, blogs have always been influential platforms for individuals and communities to share their thoughts, experiences, and passions. Never more important than for marginalized communities that can’t always be out in the open. The internet often feels appreciate a safe space.
Among these vibrant digital spaces, homosexual blogs like the ones I’ve shared below are hubs to celebrate, uncover, and learn about the LGBTQ+ community. As a longtime gay boy blogger myself, I’ve found and explored many of these topics in my control blogs, as well as what I’ve read the most of online.
I grew up on the internet and so many of these types of LGBTQ websites have been integral in defining gay culture and identity. But while many of these blogs have been around for years, there’s always room for more voices. The LGBTQ+ identity is ever-changing and always diverse; it’s imp

2. Raising My Rainbow
Lori Duron is the creative genius behind Raising My Rainbow, a site that features her gender-creative son C.J., as the star of the show. Instead of fretting about the fact that she had a gender nonconforming son, Lori's family chose to embrace C.J. as the singular and fun rainbow that he is. Her posts are extremely versatile and you may uncover yourself laughing, crying, and deep in thought by the time you culmination reading one upload. We loved one of her recent witty posts that pointed out the fact that gender reveal parties should be called genitalia reveals since a child's concept of gender doesn't even begin to evolve until age three. The way C.J. isn't afraid to be himself and loves the people that fail to see him clearly is extremely inspiring, and spending day on this blog can actually educate everyone about the way
