It’s Monday of a new year and we are all returning to our normal routines but we are also probably a little distracted which means it is a great time to do a little reading, don’t you think?
In reviewing our most popular posts of 2014, I realized that – even in a short list – they capture what we try to do here at VillageQ. We hope to tell compelling personal stories about our lives as LGBT people, to discuss news and politics and popular culture, to educate and entertain.
These posts do just that.
So, sit back, click and check out some of our best stories from 2014.

Keeping Our Gender Creative Children Healthy
The distinction between gender and sexual orientation continues to be confusing for some. The simplest definition is that gender is who you are, and sexual orientation is who you want to be with as a partner.
This Is Not Bad. This Is Not Good. This Is Change.
Today, I felt sad that Tracie and I were not the smiling couple holding hands as their kids whisked past them on the carousel or the couple stealing a kiss in the bumper car line. I touched that sadness for a while, and then I noticed our kids’ faces—their radiant joy as they skipped and ran and jumped and tugged our arms, pulling us from ride to ride.
