It is #LGBTHistoryMonth and here at NOTCHES we’re delving into LGBT+ history from our archives. For this week’s #ThrowbackThursday, we wanted to bring to you some past articles which centre around magazines.
First off, Juan Carlos Mezo González’s examination of Macho Tips, one of Mexico’s first gay Magazines. Looking in particular at the aesthetics of the publication, González delves into how masculinity and race were portrayed.

Plas Newydd, the welsh name for many large houses built in recent centuries (in English ‘new hall’) was the home of the Two Ladies of Llangollen in Denbighshire in north of Wales.
As LGBTQ History Month draws to a close, #today we just made it in time to visit the home of Eleanor and Sarah though their house & the crocus covered garden we saw there today would not have been recognised by the famous couple circa 1800.

As LGBTQ History Month draws to a close, #today Feb 26, we just made it in time, to visit the home of the Two Ladies of Llangollen - though their house Plas Newydd and the crocus covered garden we saw there today would not have been recognised by the famous couple Eleanor and Sarah in 1800.

As #LGBTHistoryMonth continues, so too does NOTCHES in our efforts to bring you LGBT history from our archives. Today, we’re spotlighting Elspeth Brown’s article: Canada’s First Gay Student Activist Group.
Bringing us into the world of gay dances, basement washrooms, and job loss, Brown focuses in on key figure Jearld Moldenhauer, with some audio clips bringing Moldenhauer’s own voice to this history.

It’s #LGBTHistoryMonth so let’s revisit Rachel Hope Cleves' 2016 article, “Lesbian Histories and Futures: Gay American History @ 40” reflecting on Jonathan Ned Katz's 1992 compendium and its impact on lesbian visibility.

This is my great grandmother's husband, a Prussian Count. At the time of this photo, in the 1920s, he was a Scharführer in the Nazi Sturmabteilung, Hitler's brown-shirts. This suggests that he was an ideological Nazi, not an opportunist or pragmatist. He was in it from the beginning. He ultimately climbed the ladder and was executed by the Russians.
Dnešní článek je o Alanu Turingovi, jehož odkaz je všude kolem nás. K zakladateli moderní informatiky však bylo přistupováno nelidsky pro jeho sexualitu - tak moc, že spáchal sebevraždu. Hanba na duši lidstva.

Today's article is about Alan Turing, whose legacy is all around us. The founder of modern computer science was, however, inhumanely treated for his sexuality - so much that he committed suicide. Shame on the soul of humanity.

We’re celebrating #LGBTplusHM25 this month here at NOTCHES. Last Thursday, we looked back at music within our past articles, and today we’re moving our focus onto style.
Fashion and self-styling have an intrinsic link to sexuality, particularly in how they are read by onlookers, as highlighted in Julia Laite’s 2014 article Beards, Real Men, and Poseurs: male sexuality and fashion since around 1900.

Busy writing another episode - delving into an enigma from Scotland's ancient history! - but until it is ready, settle back and enjoy our back catalogue!
For #LGBTHistoryMonth listen to a rainbow-coloured history of Scotland...
It's #LGBTHistoryMonth in the UK. So here's my list from last year's Pride Month detailing thirty LGBTQIA+ authors, from old to new. Enjoy, and remember: they brought us great art.

Anyway, happy #LGBTHistoryMonth to all. I can't believe it's been two years since my queer history book was published!
TWENTY-EIGHT is a collection of 28 works from different contributors, edited by me, telling the story of the UK's "don't say gay" law of the 80s and 90s - and the long shadow it still leaves to this day.
There are a couple of stories in there from my teen years. Go on, you know you want to read them.
I have seen some history/classics/antiquitues academics posting about #AncientBlackness for #BlackHistoryMonth in the US. In the UK it is #LGBTHistoryMonth and I would love to see posts from academics about those who fall outside of "straight" or the gender binary throughout history.
Trans Pride Southampton wishes everyone a very happy and productive LGBT History Month for all of our LGBTQIA+ followers, volunteers and affiliates. We value all of you, we celebrate the rights that have been hard won for queer people across the world and we support the rights of those in the community which are under threat or yet to be won.
Image description: a square post saying “Happy LGBT History Month”, these words are surrounded by images of:
Sylvia Rivera, an American trans sex worker activist with the Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries (STAR) banner, an organisation she co founded with another Stonewall Veteran Marsha P Johnson
A logo of Solent Pride, a several day long pride event across the Solent, which ran from 1992 - 1994
James Baldwin, an American writer and civil rights activist
The Lesbian And Gays Support The Miners banner, from the 1980s in the UK which stood alliance with the National Union of Mineworkers during a year long strike.

February is #lgbthistorymonth and one of our best-sellers and readers’ favourites is a novel set in the 18th century LGBT+ community.
The Betrayal of Thomas True by A J West is a witty, heartfelt book which we recommend without hesitation, in stock here in your #localbookshop.
It's coming up to #LGBTHistoryMonth in the #UK.
In #ELT, (English Language Teaching) we don't hear the voices of those with multiple intersectionalities. We lag behind mainstream #Education.
#IAmNotATaboo #blog wants to hear those voices from ELT educators, students and/or those who experienced invisibility at school - not only:
- #cis
- #white
- #nondisabled
- #GlobalNorth
- #neurotypical
- #men
You don't have to be involved in ELT to contribute - your experience of education and how not seeing yourself represented is valid.
And the ELT industry needs to know.
