  Wrestlers duke it out at La Lucha: Latino Gay Pride Firstly, just in time for Pride, qPDX would like to welcome a new team member, the illustrious Stephen Cassell, who jumped right into the fray this weekend. The busy man about town managed to get to both Latino Gay Pride and BearTown 14. And to share with you his whirlwind of a weekend are 3 very special photo galleries. Continue reading »  Check out the amazing stack of queer performers lined up for Gender Bender @ The E-Room! This Thursday the yearly spectacle of the Gender Bender Variety Show will be coming to the E-Room! It looks like a spectacle not to be missed. The E Room is usually pretty insular, by this time they have cast a wide net to get some of the best most innovative queer performers that run the gamut from traditional drag to post-queer performance art to the E Room! It’s going to be hot, queer, and amazing, and for a good cause! Continue reading » It's Pride Time, thanks Colin for being my sideburn ambition I’m starting off Queer Pride Week (I’m no longer saying Gay Pride…reclaim it queerbos) with a lot of coffee, leftover homemade Pizza for breakfast and kisses from a beautiful woman. And a bunch of mundane work. And trying to keep my shit together because there is so.much.to.fucking.do for QPDX.com this week. You? Comment!

But for the furries and and belly-lovers among us you really don’t want to miss this weekend’s BearTown 14: Carnival of Bears put on by the Oregon Bears. Indeed this celebration, amazingly in its 14th year, has much to much to completely profile but luckily the bears have cooked up some great highlights. (Oh yeah, and to hint yet again at the new qPDXer, and man about town, who will be covering several of these events as well…Is anticipation building yet?) Continue reading » It’s getting busy, folks. I know this by the fact that I am expected at 5 different events this Friday! Two are private events, but Pride is definitely heating up. We here at QPDX.com are going to try and cover as much as we can…so before you say “Hey! You didn’t mention/cover/go to/take photos of XYZ” remember there is only two of us (Adina is sadly out of town…). Continue reading »

Why should only grownups get to wear rainbows? Yes, some aspects of Pride are about celebrating our sexuality, but mahy are also about celebrating our identities and communities. Children are a big part of those! So whether Heather has two mommies, two daddies, or thinks she might be a boy, it’s time to get together at the Q Center (4115 N Mississippi) this Sunday afternoon for crafting, music, food and fun at
