Best Gay Erotica 2015 is filled to the pause-resisting brim with fantastic tales of fire dancers and TV repairmen, of hunky painters and electricians and magicians, solo sex, duo sex, and sweat-soaked triple onslaughts. Heck, throw in an alien and a priest, and you'll soon see why this anthology is head and shoulders - not to mention certain other body parts - above the rest, and always with the highest literary quality that listeners have come to expect from this esteemed and steamy collection.

You’ve Been Blocked: The Search for Gay Male Perfection is a provocative discussion exploring various ways gay men were restricted from their true selves. Many were fundamentally blocked after being raised to be straight boys, even though they are not. In childhood, gay men commonly learn to take care of and “accommodate others” by repressing their true selves; instead of healthy development and self-respect, they seek external approval from parents, teachers, and peers, for example, for being something they are not.

I Am Trantifa is a searing collection of poetry by Elizabeth Fern Rhosyn that bears witness to trauma, survival, and resilience, confronting sexual violence, transphobia, police brutality, mental illness, addiction, and recovery with raw honesty and unflinching courage. These poems move through grief and rage toward love and defiance, refusing silence and celebrating the stubborn beauty of queer and trans existence.

The second and concluding volume of Noël Coward's legendary autobiography includes Future Indefinite and the unfinished Past Unconditional. With his trademark wit, Coward delivers anecdotes about his travels in South America, Hollywood encounters with an array of contemporary stars and directors, and his later theatrical successes, including the Broadway triumph of Design For Living.

Our ability to make a fist is what distinguishes humans from every other species, including primates. The fist has played a crucial role in the birth of language and appears in nearly every form of nonverbal communication. We use our fist to protest oppression, give pleasure, knock on doors, give daps, and (inaccurately) measure our heart. Yet the fist is also a sign of someone on the edge. This book asks what happens when we lean over the edge of what a fist can do and symbolize.

Across centuries and continents, real love stories unfolded quietly behind palace doors, in secret letters, and across battlefields unseen by history textbooks but etched in time. Scandalous and Sacred dives deep into the lives of real couples who dared to love beyond society’s rigid lines of race, class, gender, and religion.

For straight couples, starting a family tends to be straightforward. For queer couples, not so much. But queer families have always existed—even Sappho, the OG lesbian, had a daughter. She named her Cleis, in honor of vaginas everywhere!

Can a synthesis of trans liberation and feminism be easily arrived at? This collection asserts that, as a matter of fact, we possessed the answer to that question decades ago. This series of essays aims to reconstruct and reintroduce the radical feminist framework that its misbegotten inheritors seem determined to forget and in doing so boldly makes the claim that transfeminism, far from being antagonistic to radical feminism, is in fact its direct descendant.

Courtney Boyer was a therapist and relationship coach who spent years teaching others how to communicate, connect, and love. But behind closed doors, her own marriage was suffocating. After years of rejection, loneliness, and shrinking herself to fit the mold of “perfect wife and mother,” she makes a bold, terrifying proposal at her seventeenth wedding anniversary: What if we opened the marriage?

Men are in crisis. Ensnarled in a culture of masculinity driven by powerful patriarchal ideals, whipsawed by competing views of men and gender expectations, many men struggle to form true connections, find personal fulfillment, and experience happiness. We feel caught between our desire for change and fear of it, stuck in a "box" that harms us and those we love.

From a Jack-the-lad from Southend being expelled from one of the most prestigious schools in the country to becoming the fastest man through water on the planet and a television favourite, Mark takes listeners on a remarkable journey.

Data has never mattered more. Our lives are increasingly shaped by it and how it is defined, collected and used. But who counts in the collection, analysis and application of data? This important book is the first to look at queer data – defined as data relating to gender, sex, sexual orientation and trans identity/history. The author shows us how current data practices reflect an incomplete account of LGBTQ lives and helps us understand how data biases are used to delegitimise the everyday experiences of queer people.

Queerphobic and transphobic messaging can arrive from nearly any direction, and once queer and trans people are exposed to the fear, disgust and judgement people have for otherness, it can easily fester into internalized oppression. In a society that promotes the narrative of self-loathing queers, loving and accepting ourselves can be hard to imagine, let alone achieve.

A practical guide to help make nonmonogamous events and communities more inclusive of all genders and sexualities.

Let me cut straight to it—pun intended. This isn’t just another book about gender. It’s about the mirror, the myth, and the man who stares into it wondering, “Who the hell am I… really?” This book is your mirror upgrade. Not the foggy one from your high school locker room—but the high-definition, soul-revealing, paradigm-popping kind. We’re not here to label. We’re here to liberate.
