There is often too much pressure on us to travel across the country in packed planes to celebrate Thanksgiving with our biological family. The truth is that so many gay people would much rather be with our chosen family (or as Armistead Maupin terms it ‘our logical family‘). It’s even more galling when your parents expect you to slip back into the closet so as not to upset some uptight elderly aunt. Or worse still, the neighbors.
Over the years more and more LGBTQ+ parties have popped up to give us real alternative ways to actually celebrate the Holiday with those we love unconditionally. Not only that, many encourage us to get down and dirty.
Here’s a selection of a few choices on how to open next Weekend including a Women-Only Event and even one in the UK although they are only celebrating the fact that this is the day they parted ways with the US.

Fort Lauderdale Pig Week Starts Nov. 25th. and runs until Dec. 4th.They have over 80 parties and thousands of people attending them. you can get your tickets and see the schedule at www.pigweek.com
This is a queer fetish event for men who enjoy a bit of debauchery and kink. Evidently ‘all men are pigs,’ so this allows people from all different segments of our population to have a space to explore their inner pig. All men have fantasies or fetishes, and most have been scared, or have not known how to indulge in them. Pig Week lets all men, whether they are leather men, twinks, jocks, bears, or any other man explore the kinkier side of their sexuality.
