I don't really hate all Gay Magazines . . . but . . .

by jasonkirk , May 02 '00
Pros: Interesting stories . . . on straight men
Cons: Panders to the money making queers
I guess I am more inclined to write about the ones I don't like. Perhaps it is the bitchy queen in me coming out. I'm not sure. I'd like to think of it more as an honest complaint I have with this magazine.

I have been a subscriber since I...

Th Orginal Mainstream GLB Magazine

by Tat2Butch , Jul 01 '00
Pros: Good articles, wide variety of stories and issues
Cons: I would like to see more women's/lesbian's issues covered
This is the one magazine I hate.. but I also like it. It is about as mainstream as you can get for the GL community.

Each cover story affects us and our lives and usually reflects how the *str8* community sees us. The stories range from movies...

Stand Up For the Advocate

by t_e_e_j , May 12 '00
Pros: great variety, covers several issues
Cons: could include a few more pages
I recently spotted a copy of the Advocate at a book store and decided to give it a read through really quick. The glossy cover featuring a well-known celebrity caught my eye, and of course, I already knew that it was a magazine that catered to the gay...

Finally! Gay, Intelligent, and Unerstandable!

by Slvrchrles , Jul 01 '00
Pros: great news coverage, wide range of stories, very entertaining magazine
Cons: needs more coverage of the transgendered community
Finally, many gay and lesbian magazines have reached the mainstream book stores and magazine stands along side their straight competitors. My first experience with a gay and lesbian magazine was with the "Harvard Gay & Lesbian Review." Now,...

Gaynews and then some

by L1qu1d_eVe , May 14 '00
Pros: Up to date news etc.. for the gay community
Cons: the price
The Advocate, in my opinion, is like Time Magazine or Newsweek for the homosexual community. With each issue packed with news of whats going on in our communities around the united states and other countries. With wonderful interviews of influential...

keep Current Keep Informed!

by Gaiawoman , Mar 09 '00
Pros: Easy to find
Cons: none
I have been reading the Advocate for 6 years now and I think that is it the best GLBT News source that we have. The articles are always well done and very informative. I think that over the last 6 years the Advocate has grown into a power voice in our...

I smell testosterone...

by sparke61 , Apr 23 '00
Pros: good writing, written for grownups (not at a fourth grade level)
Cons: though it's advertised for many groups of people it's aimed at men
I love good magazines--that is, magazines with intelligent articles, well-handled interviews, and stories about topics that I care about. The Advocate supplies all of these things, supposedly for the gay/lesbian/bisexual/transgendered community,...

Advocate covers our news

by wendycurry , Dec 21 '99
Pros: News, Interviews, Lack of fluff
Cons: Not many bisexual specific articles
The Advocate, the granddaddy of all GLBT news magazines, continues to cover the news that effects the GLBT community.

While other magazines (like Out) use half naked models to catch people's eyes, the Advocate sticks to the stories -...

The Gay TIME

by Paneless , Mar 06 '01
Pros: Interesting stories, not just about gay topics
Cons: A bit slim for the price...
Before I was out, The Advocate was more of a guilty pleasure, something to flip through nonchalantly, to see the "cute gay women." But now it's become something totally different, the homosexual version of TIME.

With provacative cover...

ADVOCATE OF THE ADVOCATE

by pin-pin , Jun 04 '01
Pros: Mainstream, "legitimate" gay news magazine
Cons: Focus is mainly on men
It's the Time magazine for the gay community. Sadly though, as with most things in the gay community, it's main focus is on gay men and it leaves gay women out. Yes, there are the obligatory articles that center on women, but for the most part it's...

The Mainstream Gay Publication

by molecule , Nov 24 '99
Pros: excellent coverage of gay, bi, and lesbian events
Cons: too conventional
If your idea of gay visibility is a gay magazine which only features straight celebs on the cover - this is it. While the Advocate is the most conventional of the gay publications, and scores some interviews with high-power culture shapers (in recent...
