In joining The Morning Show as Laura Peterson, an anchor who, after being outed in the ’90s and losing her position at the titular show, re-emerges as one of the country’s top journalists, Margulies says the opportunity to portray an LGBTQ character at the top of her game was too good to pass up.

What is it about lakes that makes them such an ideal setting for queer stories?Is it that they’re typically depicted as escapist retreats far from the rest of the world, where we can throw our cares out the door to welcome in a little romance, or even danger? Or maybe it’s that lakes often bring disconnected people together, fostering a makeshift community around them—whether you want to be a part of it or not.Either way, an awful lot of gay stuff tends to go down lakeside, and there’s a whole sub-genre of queer media to prove it.Inspired by Amazon’s new series, aptly titled The Lake, we’ve assembled a list of notable, LGBTQ-centric stories either set on—or featuring prominent scenes at—a lake. Whether scintillating romances, white-knuckle thrillers, or heartfelt family dramedies, these films (and one TV show) are perfect watches as you wind down after those long, hot days of summer.Come on in, the water’s fine!This Canadian series finds recently divorced gay man Justin (Orphan Black breakout Jordan Gavaris) returning to the lakeside town where he used to spend his summers, bringing along the teen daughter he gave up for adoption (Madison Shamoun) as a means of rebuilding their relationship.

Troye Sivan-starring Three Months, which was warmly received when it began streaming on Paramount+ in February.From first-time feature writer-director Jared Frieder, Three Months is a different kind of “HIV movie,” one that uses hopefulness and humor to depict the realities of living with the virus in the modern day, while still acknowledging how the AIDS epidemic ravaged the LGBTQ community in the ’80s and early ’90s.As Frieder told Queerty ahead of the film’s release, an HIV diagnosis is “no longer a death sentence with adequate healthcare,” and his goal with the film was to remind younger queer viewers that they’re not alone, no matter what they might be going through.Three Months takes its title from the length of time one has to wait to test for the virus after exposure, but the irony is that the film took much, much longer to bring together—nearly a decade, in fact. While not autobiographical, Frieder has shared it was loosely inspired by the emotional truth of his personal coming-of-age story, and the first version of his script was written some years ago.Since then, it has landed on the prestigious Hollywood Blacklist in 2015, was momentarily re-tooled as a streaming television series, and then reverted back to a film format when it found a home with MTV Entertainment Studios and their platform, Paramount+.

launched her own new queer dating competition/social experiment 24 Hours Of Love, which sees the performer thrown into a house with 18 male suitors for, you guessed it, 24 hours, in the hopes of finding his one true love.But today, Miss Vanjie is taking on the role of Metro.co.uk’s very own LGBTQ+ agony aunt, and she’s here to help how to go about sharing new pronouns.Dear Miss Vanjie, I’ve recently come to understand that I am non-binary and have now started using the pronouns they/them as well as she/her to describe myself. How do I go about telling friends and colleagues? Is there a way of subtly dropping my pronouns into a conversation without making it a conversation all about my gender?From my own experiences, and some of my friends who have changed their pronouns, I would say be patient.

If you know anything about sapphics (that is, women who love women), you’ll know that the Norwegian singer Girl in Red has become something of a lesbian icon. Last year, the question “Do you listen to “Girl in Red?” became a popular meme, appearing as a kind of shorthand for when you want to ask a girl if they’re attracted to other girls. So, when actress and talk show host Drew Barrymore revealed that she was listening to Girl in Red in a TikTok in late 2021, it only reignited long-standing questions about her sexuality. Let’s take a closer look at the speculations and finally answer the question, “Is Drew Barrymore gay?”RELATED: Elliot Page is about to spill some major Hollywood teaDrew Barrymore has been the subject of persistent rumors about her sexual orientation for years.

Donald Trump has said that teachers should not be allowed "to teach transgender to our children" without permission from their parents, in his latest comments about transgender people.Trump made the remarks during his keynote speech at the Faith & Freedom Coalition's Road to Majority Policy Conference in Nashville, Tennessee on Friday and also criticized what he described as "gender ideology."The former president is weighing in on an issue that has rapidly become a major point of contention for Republicans: discussions of gender and sexual identity in the classroom."Pushing woke gender ideology, think of it, on young people, is nothing less than child abuse," Trump said."No teacher should ever be allowed to teach transgender to our children without the parents' consent, and I don't think too many people are gonna be giving that consent. Not too many," the former president said.During his speech in Nashville, Trump also said that politics had become a "religion" for "the radical left" and that it "has warped their sense of right and wrong.

Here’s a little new millennium nostalgia for your day. Remember the 2002 movie Scooby-Doo? You know the one that put those meddling kids into a live action camp fest that perfectly cast the characters Velma (Linda Cardellini), Fred (Freddie Prinze Jr.), Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Shaggy (Matthew Lillard), and the voice of Scooby-Doo (Neil Fanning)? Yea, that one.While the film itself received negative reviews, it was a box office success that has garnered a cult following throughout the years.

Views expressed in The Advocate’s opinion articles are those of the writers and do not necessarily represent the views of The Advocate or our parent company, Pride Media.If you asked us to think of a timeless sentence, an evergreen sentiment that would be relevant no matter what period of history it was said in, we might offer, “It’s a really tough time to be in the LGBTQ civil rights movement.”It was a tough time in the ’70s, during Anita Bryant’s antigay “Save Our Children” crusade.It was a tough time in the ’80s, when President Reagan’s loudest comment on the AIDS epidemic was silence.It was a tough time in the ’90s, when media coverage of the murder of Brandon Teena widely misgendered him and he was buried with a headstone reading “sister, daughter, friend.” It was tough in the 2000s, when we saw an avalanche of constitutional and statutory bans on marriage equality. It was tough even in the 2010s, despite what seemed like a cascade of legal and legislative victories, including the defeat of North Carolina’s anti-transgender “bathroom bill” — as the murder epidemic of transgender women, especially trans women of color, grew more and more dire.And now, half a century out from “Save Our Children,” here we are again. This year alone, there have been hundreds of anti-LGBTQ bills introduced in state legislatures, of which 117 are explicitly anti-transgender.It’s always been a tough time.

It’s been a bit of a tense week. Homophobes are sending Pride decor up in flames, storming drag queen storytime events, and planning to take over queer events by the Uhaul-full. That’s why, for this week’s bop round-up, we’re going to cool things down a bit.

A post shared by ADAM LAMBERT (@adamlambert) At a time when Pride can sometimes feel a little sanitized and corporate-friendly, Adam Lambert has posted a short and sweet message to his fans and followers to remind them where his preferences lie.“I like dick,” he said at the start of the Pride Month video posted to Instagram.Appearing to answer queries from fans, he then responds to someone asking, “Are you gay?”“Where have you been?” responds the singer. “I’m really gay.

“Asking for help is the most important thing you can do.” Micah Scott is the Chief Executive Officer of Minus18, an organisation that supports LGBTQ young people in Australia through preventative mental health support, education, advocacy and leadership development. Scott grew up near Victoria’s Dandenong Mountains and moved to Melbourne when he was 20 years old. He found life in Dandenong rather isolating: “I was the only gay kid that I knew… I’m not aware of anyone in my social circles from back then who is queer themself,” he said. These days, when not working, Scott enjoys spending time with his friends, his partner, his chosen family.

Manuel Betancourt The title of Rose Troche’s film, “My Fake Boyfriend,” may be clunky, but it captures the outrageous premise of this latest gay romantic comedy. When stuntman Andrew (Keiynan Lonsdale, of “Love, Simon” fame) is stuck in a toxic relationship with a self-absorbed narcissist, his best friend Jake and his girlfriend Kelly (Dylan Sprouse and Sarah Hyland) decide the only way to break the cycle is with a white lie: the creation of a new (fake!) online boyfriend.

Gemma Collins has announced that she's taken on a new position of becoming her nephew's "showbiz manager".The 41 year old, who became a household name following her stint on ITV's The Only Way is Essex, often includes her brother's son Hayden Collins in many of her social media posts.And now it looks like Gemma wants to make sure she carves out a place in the spotlight for him too.Jumping onto her Instagram story, Gemma posted a photo of herself with her arm over Hayden's shoulder.Wearing large sunglasses she captioned the snap: "I am Hayden's showbiz manager any brands modelling agencies collabs movie directors email mark@tm-media.co.uk.The GC has often shared just how talented Hayden is and provides fans with glimpses of him dancing on her social media platform.But although Hayden seems to relish the spotlight, Gemma also has another nephew that is rarely seen online.In April, Gemma left fans stunned when she showcased her nephew Caine who joined her backstage on her The GC's Big Night Out tour.Sharing a short clip on her Instagram story, Gemma told her fans: "I've got a very VIP guest tonight, my eldest nephew Caine, that you don't get to see very much."She then panned the camera around so spectators could see Caine who gave a thumbs up.Gemma then added: "He's so grown up, but he's a bit shy so he's not on the Gram much, but I am so happy he is here."Last month, blonde bombshell Gemma shut down any rumours of her potentially joining an all-star version of ITV's I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!Sharing her insight on the show, Gemma said she wouldn't take part in the programme again.Speaking to The Sun she said: "I haven’t heard about it."I just don’t feel that I need to go to extremes anymore on TV for people’s

Massachusetts Catholic school can no longer call itself Catholic after a local bishop declared that its Pride and Black Lives Matter flags were incongruent with church teachings.In April, Bishop Robert McManus issued a statement opposing Nativity School of Worcester's display of Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ+ Pride flags.  By doing so, he expected the school to comply and remove the flags, but administrators have refused.Now, McManus has forbidden the school from identifying as Catholic.On Thursday, the Diocese of Worcester posted a decree about Nativity School on its website."The Nativity School of Worcester is prohibited from this time forward from identifying itself as a ‘Catholic’ school and may no longer use the title ‘Catholic’ to describe itself," McManus declared.In an open letter published in May, he claimed that "These symbols (flags) embody specific agendas or ideologies (that) contradict Catholic social and moral teaching." His issue with the school's Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ+ Pride flags is that they send a message of support."It is my contention that the 'Gay Pride' flag represents support of gay marriage and actively living a LGBTQ+ lifestyle," McManus notes.While seemingly invalidating the social justice movement, he explains his opposition to the Black Lives Matter flags.

Love can be confounding. It can be surprising and elusive; there’s no guidebook. That’s one reason why we devour romantic comedies: They’re funny but neat stories about how people get together, a process that’s terrifyingly vulnerable in real life. For Keiynan Lonsdale, best known for playing romantic lead Bram in 2018’s tender high-school romance Love, Simon, the genre has been professionally but also personally significant.

Last weekend, droves of people descended on a 15-acre park in northeast Los Angeles for an afternoon of picnicking, mingling, cheering on drag performances and a puppy costume competition, and more. Known as Dyke Day LA, this annual Pride gathering takes a homespun approach to a month typically packed with corporate-sponsored parties, parades and concerts; one organizer estimated the crowd at about 1,500. Since its first iteration in 2007, it has gone from a scrappy Eastside alternative to the spectacle of West Hollywood’s Pride celebrations to an essential — if unofficial — event on the city’s Pride calendar, open to “dykes of all genders.” (According to the organizers, that means everyone but cisgender men.) The name asserts that a term once widely taken as a misogynistic and homophobic slur can be seen as a positive, liberating label.

Another set of posts archived by KBIZoom alleged that Kim repeatedly cussed out another person while asking them to pick up the phone.At the time, HYBE denied all allegations, claiming that the posts had been “cunningly edited” in order to “maliciously slander” Kim.However, new allegations have surfaced since the initial claims.
