This edition will celebrate the uniqueness of every individual, whether gender queer, non-binary, agender, gender-fluid, transgender, or anyone within the LGBTQ+ community, including those who choose not to label themselves or are still embracing their journey. Each person decides their own path and identity.

We welcome work that reflects on:

Experiences of feeling “othered” by societal rules and norms.

Trans joy, resilience, and creativity as forms of resistance.

Cultural perspectives on gender and identity, and how different societies approach openness.

Reflections on restrictive laws or policies that deny freedom of expression, and the importance of resisting them through art-activism.

This magazine is not about “unconventionality”, but it is about uniqueness, freedom, and growing communities and care. Through stories, poems, essays, and art, we want to honor the joy, struggles, and resistance of queer and trans lives worldwide. We welcome submissions from all over the world, regardless of gender or identity.
