Y’all, Pride isn’t just a month on the calendar and it definitely isn’t just parades, glitter and the occasional overly enthusiastic rainbow merch moment (though we do love those, too). For many LGBTQ+ couples, Pride is about something far bigger than being surrounded by thousands of other like-minded folks. It’s about feeling seen, safe, and fully yourself in your relationship. …

So, while sex doesn’t stop just because we flip the page on the calendar (oh, hell no, y’all), it may begin to take on a different shape.
