The magazine launched in January after BOYS! BOYS! BOYS! had grown as a platform for years. $1 from each sale of the magazine will go to charities supporting the LGBTQ+ charities and those fighting HIV. This issue features 10 photographers from nine different countries, including notable talents like AdeY from the United Kingdom, David Charles Collins from Australia, Ashish Gupta from India, and indigenous Peruvian photographer Inon Sani on his first collaboration with the magazine.
