New monthly Queer Book Club opens
The Brookline Booksmith in Coolidge Corner has recently undergone a significant expansion, giving them more space for more inventory and more programming like their new monthly Queer Book Club which begins this month on Monday.
The Brookline Booksmith Queer Book Club is a monthly book discussion group focusing on queer authors and stories. Each month the club will meet to discuss books from a broad spectrum of writing genres, styles, and authorship. One needtn’t identfiy as queer to attend – all are welcome to attend, and no registration is needed.
The newly formed club will meet in person at Brookline Booksmith on the first Monday of every month at 7pm. Their first meeting, will discuss Andrea Lawlor’s Paul Takes the Form of a Mortal Girl, is tomorrow, Monday, 11/7 at 7pm.

Vintage gay
This weeks photograph was taken in Rio de Janeiro at Copa Cabana Beach in the early 1980s by the famous, gay, Brazilian photographer Alair Gomes. Known for photographing gay men. He achieved notoriety and fame as the pioneer of homoerotic photography in Brazil.
I dedicate this weekly post, featuring vintage gay photographs, to the men and women who lived in a more critical time where being true to yourself and loving who you want wasn’t always an option and came at a great price. Do you have a photo you would like to share? Email me at bosguymail@gmail.com.
The Boston Ballet presents As Anticipated
As Anticipated, a ballet choreographed by William Forsythe, opens tomorrow and will run through November 13, 2022.
Both Sergio and I are looking forward to attending opening night this Thursday at the Opera House. We’ve had the benefit of seeing a few of William Forsythe’s ballets thanks to a five-year collaboration he has had with the Boston Ballet.
For those who are unfamiliar with Forsythe, his ballets are more contemporary and challenge what you may think of when you envision a ballet. I’d like to encourage anyone reading this post to consider coming to attend one of the productions over the next couple of weeks.
PERFORMANCE CALENDAR
Thursday, Nov 3 at 7:30 pm
Friday, Nov 4 at 7:30 pm
Saturday, Nov 5 at 7:30 pm
Sunday, Nov 6 at 1:30 pm
Thursday, Nov 10 at 7:30 pm
Friday, Nov 11 at 7:30 pm
Saturday, Nov 12 at 1:30 and 7:30 pm
Sunday, Nov 13 at 1:30 pm
Tickets to perfomances start at $39.00 and are on sale now. For more information about the production, and to purchase tickets visit the BostonBallet.org.

Where to vote in Boston on election day
Elections will be held on Tuesday, November 8th.
If you are a registered voter and you have not participated in early voting or by mail-in ballot, please make time on Tuesday, November 8th to get to the polls, wherever you live in the United States. If you happen to live in Boston and are a first time voter, new to the area or cannot remember where to vote, I’ve got you covered.
Click here to learn where to vote in Boston on November 8th
In addition to voting for candidates, Massachusetts has four state-wide ballot initiatives. I’ve hyperlinked each question to the States voting information page so you can read more about the individual questions. The state also explains what a “Yes” or a “No” vote will mean since the language can sometimes be a bit tricky.
QUESTION 1: Additional tax on income over $1M
QUESTION 2: Regulation of dental insurance
QUESTION 3: Availability of licenses for sale of alcohol
QUESTION 4: Elibigibility for Drier’s Licenses

HRC New England celebrates 40 years
Saturday, November 19th, The Human Rights Campaign New England chapter will host its annual dinner and fundraiser. The event marks the chapter’s 40th anniversary and the HRC New England dinner and auction provides the LGBTQ+ community and their allies the chance to come together and celebrate as well as to organize.
In a post Dobbs world where the US Supreme Court can no longer be relied upon to guarantee protections many have taken for granted, organizing will be key to preserve the hard fought and won LGBTQ+ rights.
