My life as a trans, pan man
My name is Drew Jay. I am a transsexual man who also happens to identify as pansexual. Many people understand the term transsexual but I have found people tend to have underlying misconceptions regarding my sexuality. To be honest, it is a fairly new identity for myself but is one that I am very comfortable [...]

Allsorts Youth Project launches ‘Bi Network’ for young people
Bisexual young people are often categorised in the L and G brackets of LGBT, and therefore can sometimes become invisible. Moreover, many don’t realise bisexual people have specific needs and issues which need to be considered and addressed. With this in mind, Allsorts Youth Project has set up a Bi Group, simply named ‘Bi Network.’ [...]
LGBT and Sport: A Blog of Two Halves.
LGBT and Sport: A Story of Two Halves. I really look forward to the day when words like, brave, shocked or courageous are no longer used when a sportsperson tells the public that their sexuality isn’t heterosexual. Having watched the Channel Four programme, Britain’s Gay footballers (a misleading title as apparently there aren’t any) saw [...]
Update on LGBT HIP
LGBT HIP have some exciting news to share regarding developments with the project in 2012. Originally, they were just focused on consulting with LGBT people on health issues.

Brighton LGBT Blogs
It can seem an overwhelming task to find what you’re looking for and Googling ‘lesbian or gay blog’ could lead you to hours of time spent down Alice’s Rabbit Hole in search for what you want. There are heaps of American blogs, so I thought I’d take a trip down the rabbit hole myself and unearth just who is LGBT and blogging in Brighton & Hove.

The main one being that a gay/bisexual man will only be allowed to donate blood as long as he has abstained from any sexual intercourse with another man for twelve months. [...]

Called ‘Out In Brighton’, it’s a radio guide to all things lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans in Brighton & Hove and is broadcast live on Radio Reverb 97.2FM between 4-5pm Thursday and repeated [...]
National Bisexual Visibility Day September 23rd
September 23rd marks a date that is more than just worthy a mention, because too often it is the letter in LGBT that, as Camel from Brighton BothWays points out, “is often the thing that happens in these communities that gets ignored”. September 23rd is National Bisexual Visibility Day with events held around the country [...]

Don’t want to go to the Park? Don’t think you should pay to do so? So, like, totally over the whole Pride thing?
Well what are you going to do this weekend then?
