This is what QUEER MARRIAGE looks like: Cyndi Adams and Danielle Jordan

Civil unions in Colorado mean that LGBT relationships are more out in the open than ever before, but we were getting ‘married’ in the eyes of each other and our communities long before the state recognized same-sex relationships. Out Front will highlight a series of LGBT couples who have jumped the broom, tied the knot, got hitched or took the plunge – Danielle Jordan and her wife Cyndi Adams tell us their story first.

Online socializing with intent to meet

Dear Brent,

I used to love online socializing, but I’m concerned now that it has become the new norm in the gay scene.

I worry that we are all so disconnected and have lost the ability to connect on any organic level. I also worry for bars, clubs, and other gay establishments because people aren’t going out as much. Is human contact going to be reduced to one hour of chatting online, 15 minutes of sex, and then back to solitude?

Erotica outside the lines

Ask the Sexpert: Don’t let the music die

My 10-year lesbian partner and I have always had amazing sex. My sex drive has always been on the high side, but as we’ve progressed in our relationship, the amount has diminished, as seems to usually be the case. There have been been many disappointing times I thought we’d be intimate but it never occurred. I’m frustrated at not ever being able to decide if or when we have sex. Do you have any suggestions?

Sexuality: Generation Z taxes ‘sexting’ in stride

Generation Z is hornier than ever. And then you add in Generations X and Y and we have literally, a cluster fu*k. So where do we go from here?

Ask the Sexpert: One hand if by land, two if by sea

I am happily in a long term, monogamous relationship, but my partner is in the military and is deployed. I don’t believe in masturbation – any suggestions on how to relieve the tension?
