First Issue 2009
Vol.1 No.1
IN THIS ISSUE: When Karen Izzo suspected that her son was gay, she forced the issue and cajoled him out from his closet. What followed was a reckoning to self-awareness for the whole family and a new take on social justice for Karen, whose love for her charming and talented son, Jackson, led her to co-found an active PFlag chapter in Rhode Island. She shares her story. ... Plus, Richard Sweeney, a teacher in America's deep south, tackles the challenge of helping younger gay men define themselves without taking cues from promiscuous media images. Also — meet a gay man whose personal strength helped him conquer anorexia nervosa. Now he wants to shed light on this disease, which he suspects is a widespread closeted issue among gay men. And in our first issue, there are great short stories, essays, and the publisher's account of his lunch "with" George Bush. Plus an armchair traveler's guide through Proust's Paris. And much more.
