From the Editor: Eating Out
Addison Herron-Wheeler is OUT FRONT's co-publisher and editor-in-chief and friend…
For the past two years, OFM has produced issue after issue filled with hard-hitting content. Sure, there’s been plenty of fun stuff in there too, like music, movies, and fashion, but even a lot of those pieces end up having more serious messages behind the surface-level content.
And that’s a good thing—as queer folks, it’s kind of impossible to turn off the “political” or human rights-aware part of our brains just because we’re making or appreciating art. We’re always working deeper themes and messages into our creations, or making sure we’re only stanning artists who are passionate about the community.
But every now and then, everyone deserves a break from the horrors of reality, and that’s why we’ve come up with this super fun, sexy, foodie, eating out issue for you. Sure, there are a couple news pieces and more serious topics, but for the most part, it’s just all about the good food, the sexual innuendo, and a fun, full-gloss world where food porn bleeds into risque shots of your favorite stars.
So, this November, sit back, relax, and indulge a little. Trust me, you’ve earned it. We’re all traumatized from COVID and the Trump presidency, and while it’s important to keep fighting the good fight, we all need to recreate and feed our faces from time to time.
