The content included stories covering marriage equality, aging in the gay community, coming out stories, finding love in the digital age, homophobia and violence, personal histories and articles on the joys of pet ownership. The issue aimed to include a variety of content from gay people from across the globe and enable them to share their stories, bringing more awareness to their different experiences, challenges and achievements. Andrew Creagh, Managing Editor of the magazine stated, “The reader-made concept has been applied a couple of times in overseas magazines and I think it’s really exciting. It gives our readers a voice and helps us connect with them in a meaningful and direct way.”[3]
