Hi gay! June might be flying by in a rainbow-hued blur (aided by vodka sodas for some of us), but in reality, we still have two full weeks of Pride Month in which to celebrate, dance, and rub our lifestyles in straight people’s faces. And you know they love it.
If you’re running out of Pride steam (understandable!), there are plenty of ways to rev your engines again. Lord knows every major streaming network has an entire section dedicated to LGBTQIA+ stories to show your pride from the comfort of your own couch. Why that isn’t an option all year long will remain a mystery, like why Glenn Close still hasn’t won an Oscar. And while we all have our Pride routines, from drag brunches to marches, we love hearing what others do. So we checked in with some of our favorite porn stars to get the ball rolling on Pride Picks. See what Derek Kage, Damian Night, Sir Peter, Drew Valentino, Dean Young, and Carter Collins have to say.
And add your Pride pick in the comments! What is something you wish everyone could enjoy this month? Other than, y’know, basic human rights and safety. And though all these men were too modest to include any of their releases, we’d be remiss if we didn’t point out that we’ll be celebrating with those ourselves.
MOVIE: To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar
“It’s all about being yourself even in the worst situations — and marginalized people protecting and educating marginalized people.” —Derek Kage
MUSIC: “Espresso” by Sabrina Carpenter
“It gives me confidence, has the best disco chill beat, and the lyrics are so relatable. Super catchy, as well!” —Damian Night
TV SHOW: Looking
“Looking, starring Jonathan Groff and Murray Bartlett on HBO, is funny without being obnoxious. The show features authentic situations that feel universal because of the subtle details and top-notch performances. A must-see, in my opinion.” —Sir Peter
VIDEO GAME: The Last of Us
“I don’t wanna ruin the ending, but it’s gayyyyy! It’s amazing storytelling with really good LGBTQ+ representation.” —Drew Valentino
BOOK: Porn Again by Josh Sabarra
“It’s the perfect read about coming out and coming of age.” —Dean Young
SEXUAL POSITION: “The Superman.”
“Why not try to be your super self during a super occasion?” —Carter Collins
Bravo Sir Peter. For real.
Lol. I love how Dipshit Derek Kage recommends a movie that he says is about “being yourself even in the worst situations”. Bitch can’t even be himself in any situation. Pretends to be this, pretends to be that, pretends to be something else. So I’ll pass on his recommendation.
Dean Young surprised me. Excellent choice. He is not only a beautiful face. He is also smart.
its a beautiful face until he injects it with all that filler. I kinda feel bad that she feels she needs that to look beautiful. Make me wonder what kind of demons are inside her and feel bad for her.
You’re the demon…
Delusional.
Beautiful face? Lolol
I mean I guess if you are into guys who are so unhappy with their features, they would rather look like an episode of Botched
I agree that Dean Young doesn´t need facial cosmetic procedures because he is naturally beautiful, however he is young and the media puts a lot of pressure on beauty. I don’t judge him; on the contrary, I welcome and support him. For me, he is a beautiful and polite boy.
