Life & Love Stories of LGBTQ+ Couples
Love is love, and there is no better way of saying it than saying it through our queer couple stories. And that counts for everyone who is in love with another human being. For us, for you, and for many people out there in this wonderful colorful world, it does not matter who loves whom, same or different gender, same or different sexual orientation, same or different gender identity. Love should be appreciated and celebrated in every possible way. But in reality, queer couples are often facing different, even difficult realities, in many ways. Be it the circumstance that being a member of the LGBTQ+ community gives you a difficult start in your adult life with family struggles, possible problems with your coming out, or, later on, a disadvantage at work. LGBTQ+ couples are no exception. One might think, living in a progressive and liberal city might do the trick. But even in Amsterdam, queer couples experience violence for just loving each other. During our trips or back home in Amsterdam, we can meet local LGBTQ+ couples running a hotel together, or a bar or a restaurant. They all have a story to tell. And we from Couple of Men are proud to share their LGBTQ+, gay, and queer couple stories with you.
Why is sharing ‘Queer Couple Stories’ so important?
By sharing their story, we get to understand the daily life situations of couples who are running a business together, who are the first same-sex couple getting married in Russia, or who are sharing their experience fleeing from persecution – because they love another human being. This is why we want to use Queer Couple Stories to raise awareness of LGBTQ+ couples and their situations with the goal to turn the perception of lesbian, gay, trans, and queer people to achieve equality and acceptance in their countries. We want to support them, possibly improve their and your lives, and we want them to be seen – by sharing their stories.
We want to tell your couple’s story too!
A crucial part of storytelling is finding the right stories to tell. And there we need your support! Do you know any LGBTQ+ couple that has a special, exciting, different, or maybe even difficult story to tell? Can we support an LGBTQ+ couple operated business by spreading the word? We would like to learn more about it! Email us or connect with us via social media. We cannot wait to get in touch with you to make you part of our Couple of Men – Queer Couple Stories!
Do you want to know more about our gay travels, the situation of LGBTQ+ people worldwide, and couple stories from our community around the world? Stay tuned on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Pinterest, and Instagram. See you again somewhere around the world!
