5 MORE Trans Films
Posted on 1 April, 2025It’s been nearly four years since I shared 5 Trans Films for Transgender Awareness Week. So I felt it’s high time that I revist this specific part of the LGBTQ spectrum. Especially because current events and politics have brought the topic into everyday conversation – although not always in the most positive light. So let’s try to change that! As I noted before, I do not consider myself an expert on transgender films. BUT I…

Dark Queer Christmas Films
Posted on 1 November, 2023For the last four years each holiday season, I’ve shared a Christmas-themed highlighting five queer Christmas films.

While it’s been interesting to note films with those subtle differences, this year I’ve decided to steer away from that and head into brand NEW territory! DARK Queer Christmas Films! When most folks think of…

Queer Coming Out Films
Posted on 1 October, 2023Coming out is a special and signification milestone for every queer person.

Queer Kinda Christmas Films
Posted on 1 December, 2021AKA: Queer films set at Christmas, but aren’t actually Christmas films. Confused? That’s OK! So was I while watching a few of these films.
