The Struggles of the LGBTQ Community Over the Years

This further swayed the overall tone from optimism to disappointment and protest.

It’s worth noting that Pride is a movement that was …

There are so many companies creating metal toys, and for some, they seem too scary. But metal toys like butt plugs are often the better option, and they can be even more user-friendly than their counterparts. 

If you ever saw a metal butt plug, there is a chance that you were intimidated by its look. And that’s normal. Metal toys can be a lot less forgiving than silicone ones. If we talk about larger models, they are definitely not for inexperienced people since they are not rigid at all. When buying sex toys, some people check firmness as well, and here, you will have none at all. 

But metal toys can be great, especially plugs. Since they aren’t going so deep in your bum, you won’t have to worry about limited movement and whatnot. Of course, most anal plugs come with a flared base. That will allow you to insert …

It’s no secret that, throughout history, gay people endured all kinds of problems with the authorities and public in general. Homophobia was a severe problem for years, especially during the Second World War. Nazis would put people in concentration camps because of their sexual orientation.

After the end of the war, pretty much nothing changed for gay people all over the world. The US government was particularly hostile towards its LGBTQ population, restricting them from basic human rights. In June 1969, the police raided a gay bar in Greenwich Village, which was when the community said “enough.” Members of the LGBTQ community started protesting, which later led to more demonstrations throughout June 1969 in New York.

The next year, gay rights movements decided to mark the anniversary of the Stonewall Inn riots by organizing the first-ever pride in Central Park. Even though the general society was still hostile towards the …

But what does the Victorian age have to do with sexual intercourse? Wasn’t that the time of strict societal rules, restricted sexual freedom, and extreme misogyny? Well, to some degree, that’s correct. But we can’t forget that the first actual mechanical sex toy appeared in the late 1800s!

Yeah, the king of adult toys — the vibrator — was born back in the good old steamy, Jack the Ripper creeping days. Mister Mortimer Granville, an English physician, is the famous inventor of the now famous sex toy. Of course, back then, the toy existed for medical purposes, relieving women …

But that’s still not the case for LGBTQ communities in every country, and even in countries where it is safe to march, there is still a long way to go before true equality is achieved.

Without these incredible activists, the LGBTQ rights movement would not be where it is today.

In honor of Pride Month, Global Citizen is celebrating the brave activists fighting for LGBTQ rights in places where it can be dangerous to do so, and the inspiring champions …
