As everyone’s aware, as a journalist, my signature issue is Gay Intimate Partner Violence and Abuse (IPV/A). This demoralizing, horrendous--and potentially life-threatening--behavior is heavily stigmatized; thereby, it tends to be grossly underreported. Therefore, I’ve made it my mission to shine a bright light on IPV/A. And just recently, there’s been an unfortunate “twist” or sorts in this sick, galling [...]

I’m pretty sure that just about every gay/SGL and bi guy on the planet knows what poppers are! And what they do. But for those who don’t, here’s the deal: poppers are those chems you sniff and inhale during sex to get that HIGH. And some guys use them to relax, to get that calming buzz—in attempts to [...]
