Revry - 'Queer TV'


Heather Nicole

Recommended Posts

I don't know how well known this is, but a few months ago I stumbled across Revry, one of those smart tv channels/apps/whatever. Y'know, like Hulu/Netflix/etc., but just less well-known. (I don't know exactly what platforms it's on, but my TV is Roku, so I know it's at least on Roku.)

 

I've been hooked on this channel ever since. It has all kinds of shows that are either about lgbtq+, or just lgbtq+ inclusive, or lgbtq+ produced, and it has a lot of trans representation too. It's sooo comfy to see so much inclusive, accepting stuff in one place.

 

Some of my personal favorites on Revry so far (in no order):

 

- Between The Lines (an interview documentary on lgbtq+)

- Them (short interview documentary on the variety of trans)

- To Be Me (short movie about a young black non-binary struggling with gender questioning)

- To Be Me Panel Discussion (a behind the scenes discussion about the making of To Be Me)

- Saturday Church (short musical about an amab youth struggling with gender)

- She 4 me (Music video of a lesbian wedding - such a beautiful song and imagery - brought tears for me)

- Gal Pals (hilarious, adorable, young lesbian rom-com series.  Plus I'm a total sucker for gal-gal love stories :wub:)

- The Q Agenda (an lgbtq+ talk show)

- Her Story (short series about a young trans woman)

- XXY (older foreign movie about a young intersex person)

- Femme (short comedic film about an effeminate young gay man learning to "own" his "femme" tendancies)

- Denial (documentary about both green energy and a trans woman's coming out, and ties the two together brilliantly)

- Magic H8 Ball (short rom-rom about a gay man and a very magical "magic 8-ball".)

- Cameron Esposito: Marriage Material (stand-up comedy special from a hilarious lesbian comedian)

- Almost Adults (lesbian rom-com movie)

- Kumu Hina (documentary about an individual of Hawai'i native culture's third gender)

- Mrs. McCutcheon (short film about a trans-girl youth)

- Gay Camp (hilarious comedy short about a reverse conversion camp, that tries to convert "godless heterosexuals" to righteous proper gay)

- America in Transiton (trans documentaries)

- My Trans Life (trans documentaries)

- Life is Easy (New Zealand gender/body-swap comedy)

- Before I Got Famous (comedy series about a young gay asian man trying to make it in hollywood)

- Pick Up (way too short lesbian rom-com)

- Girls Like Magic (short lesbian rom-com series)

I am glad to see this coming out and happening.  I just commented on another post about a documentary involving some well known Trans show business folks and the evolving entertainment industry that wants us but is not sure what to do with us. Even these short Indie productions being seen and promoted make us seen as humans, and good ones at that.  While entertaining for most of us, they are educational to Cis people who need the education badly.  It may change minds in some of our antagonists, but it adds to information to debunk the claims against us that H8ers shout from the roof tops.

Thank you so much @Heather Nicole for letting us know about this wonderful new streaming option. Obviously, I like the idea that it’s main theme is all things LGBTQ+. But this has a chance of really making a difference if it takes off.

 

I decided to watch one of their 47 min. documentaries called “My Transgender Summer Camp”. What a great documentary about a hidden summer camp for very young (prepubescent) trans kids. The kids in that documentary looked so happy and free to express their true selves any way they please. It was done very well.

 

Times are really changing. You wouldn’t have been able to bring me home if they had a summer camp like that back in my youth…lol. The next generation or two of children will have it so much easier with fresh new ‘up to date’ content available. Hopefully, the best of the best from this new streaming service can eventually make it’s way to mainstream public broadcasting and streaming services.

 

If Revry has more documentaries or content of that quality, I may have to subscribe. Some of its content is free but I saw several shows that looked promising that were ‘premium’ (on demand) that I’d like to see.

 

Thanks Again,

Susan R?

      Wow that is a high number for Estradiol good grief! Testosterone levels are better than mine. I don't remember my Estradiol level but testosterone was 80. To me that is really high but it was in the two hundreds the check in before last one.

      I don't understand why this would make a difference being a "dad" I mean, as far as how they would grow.
    • Ashley0616
      I don't see why not. I have worn forms since I came out. 
    • MaeBe
      I have never worn breastforms, but I assume as long as they don't aggravate your nipples you could.

      Every week I've been excited to take my shot, so it's never been an issue. Yesterday, however, I woke up and started my usual "slow roll" and then suddenly realized I had breakfast plans that I had to rush out the door for. After, it was straight into work calls, and then I got the notification from the doctor about things being too high and all the while my mind had completely slipped that I needed take my shot.   Given that I am not asking for medical advice, but sharing my journey, I will note my results: Estradiol at 447 pg/mL and Testosterone was 23 ng/dL, up and down from 26 pg/mL and 526 ng/dL respectively before treatment. Almost flipped the bit! The doc would like my Estradiol closer to 300 pg/mL, so we'll see what Monday's tests state.   Oh, and I teased the dinner with old soccer teammates and never updated the thread! It went well. There were a couple funny moments. One guy, who I was worried about their response, greeted me with "Hey, you've lost some weight!" 😎 And a friend who lives near me picked me up on the way to dinner exclaimed, after we learned one of the invitees might show up with a date, "Wait! We could have brought women?!" To which I instantly responded, "You kind of did, bringing me!" Everyone got a good laugh out of that. 😁

      To me there isn't that much difference other the measurement, which side the zipper is on and men's pants have bigger pockets.

      I hope this is not stupid question..I have yet to start n not sure if doc will approve..but once you start growing buds n such, can you still wear forms to get to the size you were?   I'm a dad, so when I start blossoms they will be smaller for a long time n probably need surgical augmented..that's fine. I don't want to go ddd to aa to ddd..   any ideas?   thank you

      April sounds fun..I keep some boy jeans to visit mom in..fir now   hugs

      I like them too.  We had them growing up.  But my father's family were Swedes.

      Oh my!  I guess it just goes to show how different tastes can be. Since we don't live near the ocean, Seafood is a rare luxury. We absolutely love pickled herring! Especially my husband and my GF, I guess it's a Ferman/Russian cultural thing.  But most of the kids like it too, and a jar wouldn't last in the pantry for long 😆
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      I think the key to that is just not minding eating the same thing repeatedly. Since we produce a lot of our own food here, we end up eating what is in season at the moment. So, when the yellow squash is ripening, we end up fixing squash 20 different ways. When the strawberries are ready, we eat lots of strawberries. It's kind of a different mindset to eat in season when it has become such a part of American culture but the grocery store has everything we want all the time. Like grapes in December.  My family does even things out a little bit by having a greenhouse so we have some fresh things in the winter, but it's not a 100% fix.

      My brothers and I had to eat what was on the plate.  All of it, and nothing else.  Pickiness was not tolerated.  Some of our least favourite were liver and onions, sauerkraut, and especially rollmops (pickled herring).  We finally protested enough to persuade our mother not to serve rollmops, though she kept a jar in the pantry for years afterwards, as a threat if we didn't behave.

      I'll go first.  My favorite team is the Yankees.  Loved them since I was a kid.  I was born in NYC so, yeah.  I know everyone loves to hate them, and that's OK.  I just love baseball in general.  It's a game of traditions, strategy, power, grace and skill.   Play Ball!!  ⚾   Carolyn Marie

      I guess you do have a good point. It's just hard to try and not have the same meals over and over again.

      Hi   I’ll weigh in on being picky about food.  Yes, and I was brought up that way.  We didn’t have to eat everything our parents ate.  They had a number of things they ate that they figured we wouldn’t eat, an acquired taste things or one or the other didn’t like them too.   even as an adult there are many things I won’t eat.  In my defense, there are different things my wife won’t eat.   the weird thing is that after being in E, my tastes have changed.  Sweet, sour, salty or bland, if I eat or drink too much of any one thing and I have to counter act it.   Willow
