25 Apr 2011 / Comments Off / in Bulletin Board/by David Watters

Stephen Baldwin comes out in support of ex-gays

31 Jan 2010 / Comments Off / in Editorial/by Editor

Baldwin nutter Stephen comes out in support of ex-gays.

Once again the big mouth, slow-brained Stephen shows that he is the Elmer Gantry of the Baldwin clan.

Talking to Miranda Sawyer of the Observer, this born-again Christian and general dipstick came out against homosexuality. He is all for ex-gays.

Why the hell would you get married?

04 Jul 2009 / Comments Off / in Oral Histories/by Anonymous

A ‘weddingophobe’ takes the plunge.

A journey from resistance to acceptance.

I don’t mean to sound as if getting a civil partnership with a foreigner is as simple as getting an Oyster card or a lottery ticket – you have to really want it and the Home Office obviously must be satisfied it is valid. It took six months of applications, travelling, meeting relatives, and missing each other.

04 Jul 2009 / Comments Off / in Opinion/by Gino Meriano

Gay businessman Gino Meriano writes about Civil Partnerships.

The founder of Pink Weddings Ltd and The Gay Wedding Show writes about the legal implications of civil partnerships and social significance of full marriage equality.

Bachelors and Married Men

04 Jul 2009 / Comments Off / in Blogs/by Scott De Buitleir

On the theme of Bachelors and Married Men.

Scott De Buitléir likes the idea of gay marriage both personally and politically.

When I got older, however, and once hormones started kicking in, I still dreamt of getting married and having a family one day. The only difference is that I realised that I’d want to marry a man instead.

Step Into The Light

16 Feb 2009 / Comments Off / in Interviews/by Christopher Bryant

An interview with Darren Hayes.

An interview with Darren Hayes about the album This Delicate Thing We’ve Made, the DVD This Delicate Film We’ve Made, and the issue of gay rights.

I definitely come from a generation where my first sexual awareness was based in shame. It wasn’t like I put on my ruby slippers and headed off to the magical West End.

Marriages and Unions

16 Feb 2009 / Comments Off / in Oral Histories/by Christopher Bryant

A personal take on civil partnerships

It is not in the end about weddings but about the right to have one.

Even at my best friend’s wedding I had to ward off the evil-eye of the mother-in-law, who thought of me as a second-class citizen as well as other things I will not commit to this page. The Daily Mail had done its work on her.

About Polari Magazine

Polari Magazine is an LGBT arts and culture magazine that explores the subculture by looking at what is important to the people who are in it. It’s about the lives we lead, not the lifestyles we’re supposed to lead.

Its content is informed & insightful, and features a diverse range of writers from every section of the community. Its intent is to help LGBT readers learn about their own heritage and to sustain a link between the present and the past.

Polari is designed to nurture the idea of community, whether that be social and political, or artistic and creative. It is your magazine, whether you want to read it, or whether you want to get involved in it, if you're gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, or queer.

Polari Magazine is all these: it's a gay online magazine; it's a gay and lesbian online magazine; it's an LGBT arts and culture magazine. Ultimately, it is a queer magazine.
