Nikkie de Jager receives Dutch TV award Trans vlogger Nikkie de Jager was given a special recognition. At the Gouden Televizier-Ring Gala, she was awarded the Dutch Television Prize.

Over time, she made up many famous personalities and...

"Operetta for two gay tenors" goes down well with Berlin audiences Johannes Kram is behind the "Operetta for Two Gay Tenors". He came up with the story about the gay ex-couple Tobi and Jan and addresses sometimes funny, sometimes quite thoughtful topics. The visitors are enthusiastic. A mix of light and purism managed to captivate people at the premiere from the very first minute. It quickly seems clear that it was the right decision of the BKA Theater to "land" the play. The question "Are operettas still contemporary at all?" should now at the latest no longer be asked by anyone. Also interesting: the protagonists of the play are all homosexual. "Operetta for two gay tenors" - what is it about? "Operetta for Two Gay Tenors" consists of a total of 16 songs that - apparently - deal with everyday things. Dusty relationships, what one has "always done this way" a...

Does NFL star Carl Nassib have a boyfriend? The name Carl Nassib is likely to bring a smile to the faces of non-NFL fans. Many people who belong to the queer community or who can identify with the same, know that he is the first active professional in the NFL to come out publicly. Since then, it seems like he's really blossomed. He makes no secret of the fact that he is gay. On the contrary. On the contrary, his picture on Instagram has caused some rumors to start circulating. Actually, the photo in question "only" shows two men smiling joyfully at the camera. However, with the past outing in mind, it is easy to suspect more behind this simple snapshot, if necessary. Nassib is still keeping a low profile. Maybe he wants to enjoy his happiness together with his new partner before he shares it with the public? A look at a remarkable...

The days are getting shorter and the air indoors drier. This can affect not only the mood, but also the skin. It is therefore all the more important to take appropriate preventive measures and make small beauty stops every now and then to do something good for your body (and soul). But what happens if you take care of your skin regularly, but incorrectly? The good news is that if you know which mistakes are particularly common in your skin care routine, you can often avoid them. The following "mishaps" happen comparatively often and can contribute to the skin not being able to benefit fully from the treatments. Mistake No. 1: Care products and skin type do not match Anyone who is surprised that creams and co. seem to be ineffective should check whether the products used and the skin type match. A classic example: men with oily skin need different care than men with combination skin, etc.. Those who...

The Westin Leipzig is once again in the headlines The news hit - among others on social media - like a bomb. Singer Gil Ofarim posted a video and accused the Westin Leipzig of not serving him due to the fact that he was wearing a necklace with a Star of David. A "Mr. W." had asked him to take off the chain. How shocked the "Let's Dance" winner was about this was written all over his face a few minutes after the incident. The image of the hotel has suffered a further blow. Meanwhile, it is reported that - apart from Gil's portrayal - there would be other reports about the incidents at the reception. In the counterstatement, it is said that the singer had scolded and clashed with the staff. Whether the surveillance camera footage will provide clarity remains to be seen. What is certain, however, is that this is not the first time that an employee of the hotel has been accused of this kind....

On the 90th birthday of Desmond Tutu Desmond Tutu turns 90. He has long been an advocate for greater tolerance and supports, among other things, the fight against racism and homophobia. In this context, it is particularly interesting that the archbishop emeritus is thus taking a stand against his church. In Africa, among other places, the pressure on the LGBTQI+ community from church circles is very high. Many priests never tire of emphasizing that homosexuality is a sin. Desmond Tutu has been striking completely different tones here for a long time. Queers in Africa and in many other parts of the world thank him. Tutu compares racism and homophobia with each other For Tutu, being open to other nations but condemning homosexuality is contradictory. Already in several speeches he made clear how closely racism and homophobia are linked. A person would not choose his or her sexual orientation....

Some people criticize the diversity parking spaces in Hanau The recently inaugurated diversity parking lots have become the subject of heated debate. Now, among others, the Hanau City Council has already spoken out and stated that these are by no means exclusively parking spaces for members of the community, but would be parking spaces for everyone. The "colorful" parking spaces are largely located in the center of Hanau in the underground parking garage "Am Markt". From here, it is not far to the city's popular shopping opportunities. Partly unobjective criticism Certainly, it was clear to those involved from the very beginning that not everyone was comfortable with the idea of "rainbow parking". The prejudice quickly made the rounds, especially on social networks, that the diversity parking spaces were exclusively parking spaces for queers. Also in the context of a conversation with the DPA, the city...
