This isOne Good Thing,free extreme taboo sex videos a weekly column where we tell you about one of the few nice things that happened this week.
Between the loss of queer publication Into and the partial closing of AfterEllen, it's been a crushing few years for queer people in media.
So it was downright uplifting to see Out Magazinefeature the women and non-binary femmes otherwise known as the "Mothers and Daughters of the Movement" in its latest issue.
It's so rare to see this community represented in media, forget gracing a cover.

"In partnership with Out’s executive editor Raquel Willis, our cover story features Mickalene Thomas’ photographs of the Mothers and Daughters of the Movement: five Black queer and trans women carrying our liberation forward, each of them representative of vital work around race, sexuality, gender, class, and beyond."
Queer media has long been criticized for being too white, too cis, and too closely aligned with corporations. While the demand for representation of trans folks and particularly queer and trans people of color has grown in recent years, it hasn't always been met a greater supply.
Out's latest issue feels different: visually, structurally, and content-wise. It celebrates the queer activists who were actually behind the Stonewall uprising, including the Miss Major Griffin-Gracy, as well as more contemporary activists, including Black Futures Lab founder Alicia Garza and Charlene Carruthers, the National Director of the Black Youth Project 100.
The issue was edited by author and feminist activist Janet Mock. The entire magazine was photographed by, written by, and and styled by women and non-binary femmes.
The issue comes just as Esquire came under fire for publishing a cover story -- during Black History month, of all times -- about what it's like to be a white male teenager in America right now.
Meanwhile,Out's cover received all the love on Twitter.
