Munroe shares how pride has evolved for her in a time when trans rights are under attack, why connection is at the heart of queer resilience, and how her style is both storytelling and armor. She opens up about her new documentary Love and Rage, which was released on July 15th, and her newest book Talk to Me, which dives into the power of having hard but necessary conversations.

In ‘A Nice Indian Boy,’ Karan Soni & Jonathan Groff play Naveen and Jay, a couple looking to plan a big, gay Indian wedding of their own—even if Naveen's traditional parents aren't entirely thrilled about that.

The film nods to and playfully subverts many of the tropes of the romantic-comedy genre and the grand tradition of Bollywood cinema. So, with that in mind, we asked Soni & Groff: What movies—for better or for worse—shaped your understanding of love and romance at a young age?

Benito Skinner's (@BennyDrama7) must-see new comedy #Overcompensating is a hilarious, college-set coming-out tale, but it also doubles as a sweet origin story for one of the most formative friendships of our lives: that between a gay and his best girlfriend.

After meeting at orientation and a hookup-gone-wrong, freshmen Benny and Carmen quickly become on-campus conspirators and confidantes, and their relationship blossoms into something that makes ‘Overcompensating’ truly special.

Unsurprisingly, Skinner and his scene-stealing co-star Wally Baram (@wallybaram) have electric chemistry on-screen and off, which was immediately apparent when Queerty sat down for a chat with the pair about the gayest college classes they ever took, and so much more.
