Happy Pride Month to q***r people everywhere from Boston to Palestine! In case you missed it, this year’s Boston Pride “for the People” was branded “Pride as Protest Since 1776.” We have several questions, including……what???

Over the past few years, q***r community members and organizations, including us, shared concerns about Boston Pride’s partnership with the Israeli consulate, Zionist organizations, and cops at Pride. Pride for the People responded with hostility. Buuut Pride as a protest since 1776, right? 🇺🇸

Here’s to a month full of q***r exuberance and joy, protest, and the hope of a free Palestine in our lifetimes ♥️🖤🤍💚

P.S. You can get free, printable copies of this zine in English, Chinese, Korean, and Spanish on our website at www.pleasurepie.org/articles/free-zines-about-palestine.

New cover reveal! You can now get the S*x Week Boston guide to finding s*x-positive community and resources in the Boston area. This year’s cover nods to local s** work history :) Did you know that Boston used to have a red light district called the Combat Zone, right next to Chinatown? The neon sign shaped like a woman’s legs comes from a long-gone club there.

You can get this zine in our Etsy store at pleasurepie.etsy.com/listing/4303095847.

We’re back at the Cambridge Public Library with a Q***r Zine Making Workshop to celebrate Pride this year! Learn what exactly a zine is and what it has to do with q***r and trans liberation. Then, learn how to make your very own, very q***r zine 🌈📚

Resharing one of our most popular posts because consent is not a black-and-white binary!

When we talk about “enthusiastic consent,” it doesn’t mean that everyone needs to be 100% psyched about the s*x they’re about to have for it to be consensual. That level of enthusiasm isn’t always attainable.

What it *does* mean is that everyone is giving consent because they actually *want* to. Maybe they’re super h***y, or maybe it’s more complicated. But it should never be the result of coercion.

Happy Ma********on May! Ma********on is often seen as taboo to talk about. That’s why we made this collaborative zine about it, with personal stories about ma********on experiences across race, gender, s*xual identity, and age. This zine aims to break the taboo and encourage open, honest conversations about ma********on from a shame-free perspective.

We made this zine as a friendly companion to help folks navigate a positive chlamydia test (based on personal experience!).

A lot of the time, having chlamydia is no worse than having a cold. But even if you don’t have symptoms, there can be a lot of shame, stress, and dread. This zine holds your hand through the process of dealing with an STI and coming out the other side unscathed.

This new zine is now available on Etsy: https://pleasurepie.etsy.com/listing/4493112496.

🌺I AM NEVER ALONE. In a world that wants to be rid of us, it can be lonely. But a world without trans f**s has never existed.🌺

Just one of the revelations in the mini zines crafted at our Trans Day of Visibility zine-making workshop and other recent workshops!

We're booking workshops for Pride season so check out pleasurepie.org/workshops to learn how you can bring a s*x-positive workshop to your community.

Most of us weren’t taught to how reject people, and that ends up causing a lot of unnecessary hurt! This mini zine about ghosting is our attempt to make dating and hookup culture a little bit kinder. 👻💕
