Affections - A Queer Open Mic

Affections : An Open-mic about Queer Love

This week - Ain't made for your boxes

I think boxes and definitions are things that are made more so for the viewer than for the intended user of them. I think the idea of definitions? Those are made to serve as some form of communication for the stranger the outsider or the other because for oneself? For oneself they simply do not fit.

If you were to ask anyone on the queer spectrum their exact sexuality and gender identity, well the one thing that will be defined and exact is their inability towards exaction concerning the same. And honestly? There really is no need for any. These boxes aren’t for us and that’s just how we want it.

-The Curators

An open mic about queer stories. Simple as that honestly. Artists in ways of storytelling poetry comedy and songs always tell us about themselves the softness of their emotions in affection or just.. love? A constant. A space to feel accepted understood and related to.
