The mainstream media demonisation of the trans community must be stopped. If you want to have an opinion about trans people go and speak to trans people. Otherwise your opinion is invalid.

A very Queer Happy Birthday today to the glorious Alan Cumming. I suspect everyone knows him and hopefully loves him, his list of films, TV shows and awards is huge, and he's currently enjoying being the host of The Traitors US.

A very Happy Birthday to the incredible Peter Tatchell. He’s been relentless in his LGBTQ+ activism for more than 40 years. He co-founded direct action group OutRage! and has campaigned against racism, homophobia, censorship and the death penalty. 🌈

Our second Queer Birthday is the pioneering trans man and author Thomas Beatie. Having transitioned in 2002 he married Nancy Gillespie in 2003, she couldn't have children, so he suspended his testosterone and elected to have their baby. He finally gave birth in June 2008.

Our first Queer Birthday is the African American poet and activist Pat Parker. Who's poetry and activism was based around her experiences as a black lesbian feminist. In a 1975 interview with Anita Cornwell she said, "after my first relationship with a woman, I knew where I was going."

Where do we even start with today’s Queer Birthday person, the absolute shining star that was Janis Joplin. Genius, legend, rebel. Hero to many. Her fame was short lived but she burned so brightly between 1967 and 70 when she was one of the most successful singer songwriters on earth

Yesterday was a bit chaotic here and in all the fuss I completely forgot to post that it was National Hat Day dammit 😫 So let’s pretend it’s today. I want to see your lovely hats, whether they’re beanies, caps, bucket hats, berets or any other type!
Here’s one of ours to get started 🌈

Today's Queer Birthday celebration is for an actor and makeup artist who wowed us as Nomi Marks in Sense8. The incredible Jamie Clayton. For many trans girls, her character in Sense8 was the first time they saw themselves reflected back on television. And for that she is a hero to so many. 🏳️⚧️🥂🍾🥳🎁🎈

Our Queer Birthday today is a man who was immensely flawed, and incredibly talented in so many ways. Genius photographer, double Oscar-winning costume designer and society dandy. Cecil Beaton was a central figure in the Bright Young Things set in Britain in the 1920s. 1/3

Happy Queer Birthday today to the great Joan Baez. One of the greatest singer songwriters of her generation, and a Bisexual woman who has fought endlessly for LGBTQ+ rights. Her 1977 song "Altar Boy and the Thief" was written as a dedication to her gay fanbase. 🥳🍾🥂🎶

Our first Queer Birthday of 2025 is a hero to so many. Thin White Duke, Ziggy Stardust or just David Bowie. Hard to believe he’s not still with us. He would have been 78 today.
