Every Saturday QueerAF sends you a summary of the queer world, bursting with LGBTQIA+ content - all while we support queer creatives. It's written by me, Jamie Wareham, and a different queer creative each week.

πŸ’¬ This week:

  • Trans athletes. The headlines suggest there is division, but a resurfaced study shows once again that the majority support trans folk.
  • Lesbian Visibility Week. Starts on Monday, it celebrates lesbians and shows solidarity with all LGBTQI women and non-binary people in our community.
  • A shared vision. We believe the UK media industry only thrives when it’s bursting with queer talent. We've partnered with the newly launched LGBTQ+ Journalism Network to fund a joint series of content - the first two articles are in today’s newsletter.

Skip the doom scrolling. Let us work out the queer world for you. We are QueerAF – and so are you.

Delivering for ad traffic has gotten in the way of pitching exciting queer content throughout my career. That’s why I’ve set up a platform without them

I remember sneaking into town to buy a copy of a gay mag for the first time.
