You’ve picked your outfit (tiny). You’ve packed your jock (or two). You’ve glittered every crevice and moisturized in places only your hookups will appreciate. Pride is here—and you’re ready to live it up.

But between the parades, rooftop parties, drag brunches, and very intentional thirst traps, here’s something worth remembering:

Every moment of queer joy you claim this month is a form of protest.

And yes—that includes getting laid.

For generations, we were told not to love.

Not to touch.

Not to desire.

Not to dance, not to kiss in public, not to be bold in our bodies.

We were told to keep it quiet. To keep it secret. To keep it shameful.

And we didn’t.

We turned it into a celebration. Into a revolution. Into Pride.

So when you lock eyes with that hot stranger across the pool party and actually go talk to him?

When you dance shirtless in the middle of a street parade while the bass rattles your chest?

When you pull someone closer on the dance floor and kiss them like no one’s watching—even though everyone is?

That is resistance.

That is power.

That is proof that your body, your desire, and your pleasure are yours to own.

Sex isn’t just sex. It’s freedom.

It’s choosing joy in a world that still tries to police it.

It’s celebrating your body on your terms, in your favorite mesh jock, with exactly the person (or persons) you want.

Because every hookup, every flirtation, every sweaty, glitter-streaked encounter this Pride month is a middle finger to the idea that you should ever feel ashamed of who you are or who you love.

So get laid. And do it proudly.

Go out, serve body, turn heads, and wake up tangled in a pair of swim briefs that aren’t yours. Kiss with intention. Hook up with gratitude. Moan louder than you should at the afterparty and high-five your friends about it later.

You deserve it. You’ve earned it. And yes—especially this month—it matters.

Because queer joy is protest.

And the party? The hookup? The pleasure?

That’s just you, writing your own story. One jockstrap at a time.

Ready to celebrate?

Our latest jocks, boy bikinis, mesh tanks, and bulge-forward briefs are made for owning the dance floor, the bedroom, and every kiss in between. Go grab yours. Go get yours.
