Them

Them, digital journalism centered on the LGBTQ+ community

Them is an English-language digital publication covering current events and culture of the LGBTQ+ community. Its content is organized into regular sections on news, politics, culture, art, entertainment, books, celebrities, music, TV and movies, as well as style, beauty, and fashion. Information is presented both in feature format and in service pieces and opinion columns.

Sections and coverage topics

The site's editorial structure includes areas dedicated to community, activism, and history, along with more personal content spaces such as "One of Them," "T4T," and "Tender." It also maintains sections for answers and advice on sex and relationships, health, gender and identity, safety and legal, astrology, first person, and mental health. The material is complemented by videos and a search engine that the publication itself describes as "human content, AI powered search."

News and politics

News coverage addresses legislative and judicial matters related to the LGBTQ+ community, such as agreements by two hospital systems with the Department of Justice to end gender-affirming care for minors, the decision by Massachusetts hospitals to suspend care for trans youth despite state legal protections, or the sentencing of two women to life in prison for the murder of a transgender man. Topics of political representation, civil rights, and protection of groups also appear, such as the recognition of non-monogamous couples in Seattle or measures by a First Nation against the ban on care for trans youth in Alberta.

Culture, entertainment, and fashion

In the cultural sphere, Them publishes features on television, film, music, and video games, as well as profiles of public figures. Topics covered include actress Kali Reis, model Lauren Chan, designer Bob Mackie, host Neil Patrick Harris, and model Kai Schreiber. The fashion and style section covers runways, awards, and trends, while the beauty section includes both new products and practical guides.

Service content and first person

The publication combines reporting with practical resources developed from expert sources. These address sexual health, relationships, gender identity, safety, and well-being, and include explanations of cosmetic procedures, sexual practices, and aftercare. First-person pieces and advice columns complete an editorial offering that alternates information, analysis, and personal experience.

Editorial activity and structure

The site maintains a selection of featured stories and a trending list, with articles by contributors such as Quispe López, Delia Curtis, Mathew Rodriguez, Hanna Stolzer, and Sam Manzella. The publication belongs to the equalpride group, and its editorial staff has appeared in the outlet's own news in relation to parent company decisions. Content is also distributed through a newsletter and video channels.
