B Movies Blog

Hello, Movie Mavens! Welcome back to the B Movies Blog. Today, we’re popping some of my favorite LGBTQIA+ movies into the ol’ VCR. 

I’ve said this before, but Pride is seriously one of my favorite times of the year. 

There was a time in my life, even after I’d come out, where I wouldn’t have been as vocal about my sexuality as I am now. 

That may be hard to believe, but it’s true. 

I was worried about what people I liked would think because I sometimes date cis, straight men. 

I was scared that I wasn’t straight enough or queer enough. 

But, over the years, I’ve learned to be loud and proud about who I am. 

I don’t try to hide my sexuality nor do I apologize for it. 

However, I know this isn’t a possibility for everyone. I know some people can’t come out or are afraid to come out. 

I want you to know that you don’t have to come out before you’re ready. You’re still part of the community, no matter what. 

If you can’t come out right now, I’m so sorry. I wish that you can one day find a safe space with an accepting community where you feel comfortable. 

Additionally, if you’re an ally, and someone comes out to you, DO NOT out that person to other people. Just support them and thank them for confiding in you. 

I digress. 

I’ve chosen 10 of my favorite LGBTQIA+ movies, and, boy howdy, was it hard to leave it at 10. 

I kept picking and prodding this list, but I finally had to let it go. 

Just know that I have sooooo many more than this. 

Alrighty, that should do us for introductions. 

Here are 10 of my favorite LGBTQIA+ movies: 

• Crush
• Bottoms
• Fire Island
• Challengers 
• The Half Of It
• All Of Us Strangers 
• Call Me By Your Name
• But I’m A Cheerleader 
• Portrait of a Lady on Fire 
• Hedwig and the Angry Itch
