About Us

Our story

It was began with a shared frustration – a frustration born from the lack of discussion around LGBTQ+ representation in the media. As members of the community, we often found ourselves craving stories and voices that reflected our own experiences, and answers to the questions that should follow: “Was it good or bad representation?”, and “Why does it matter?” Time and time again, we found that these discussions were not being had.

So we decided to take matters into our own hands. Armed with passion, determination, and a pride flag backdrop, we embarked on a mission to create a space where LGBTQ+ voices could thrive! We wanted to create a community which encouraged discussion and reflection about what we are all seeing on our screens. In 2021, our YouTube channel was born. This channel is about more than just entertainment – it’s about empowerment. It’s about showing the world that LGBTQ+ voices matter, and that good representation is non-negotiable.

Our goal is simple: amplify the voices of the LGBTQ+ community. Whether we’re discussing the latest films and TV shows, or pop culture trends, we always strive to provide an inclusive perspective that celebrates the rich diversity of our community. We believe that representation matters because when people see themselves reflected positively in the stories they watch, it validates their experiences, affirms their identities, and fosters a sense of belonging. 

Over the years our channel has grown, expanding into the worlds of Patreon and Discord. We have created a safe space for all to make friends, share experiences and interests, and keep the discussions going. Our content has branched out into blogs and podcasts where we collaborate with our supporters on the topics that matter most to them. We regularly donate to LGBTQ+ charities around the world, and sharing LGBTQ+ stories, news, and resources is at the heart of our activism. We aim to inspire others to embrace their authentic selves and to demand greater visibility and representation in all forms of media because we all matter, and put simply: you can’t be, what you can’t see.

So join us on this journey as we challenge stereotypes, break down barriers, and celebrate the beautiful diversity of our fabulous community – on and off the screen. Whether you’re here for the laughs, the tears, or the occasional rant about Hollywood’s latest blunder, know that you’re part of something special. You’re part of a community that believes in the power of visibility. Together, let’s create a world where everyone’s story is a story worth telling!

Thank you for being a part of our community.

With love
