This amazing Pup Tale!

Kris (aka Pup Atlas) is just the nicest guy (says everyone who knows him). But when you grow up being nice to everyone, having a kind heart, and being so trusting, you get teased and made fun of, a lot! And that's exactly what happened to Kris. As a youth, Kris endured the torments of his peers and siblings, but all of that continued to shape him into a person who is respected, appreciated, and welcomed in many circles. Finding a solid group of friends through his dabbling with martial arts, Kris was able to conquer several major hurdles in life - his family moving, his father being very ill, and the ever-lingering doubt and uncertainty of his sexuality. Kris has found consolation and comfort in embracing the Pup Life, now living a life as an out and proud gay man. What does the Pup experience provide? What is this niche kink in the gay community? Well, come listen to Kris' story now and hear his incredible adventure of finding and embracing his true self! Pup Atlas was also so brave as to share his written words for our website.

PART TWO of The One About The Edgy Wiccan

What's more stressful for a gay kid growing up in a small, Christian town in Texas? Growing up as a Mormon in a small, Christian town! Travis, who goes by Avis now, identifies as a gay man and uses the pronouns he/him/his. Coming from a large, blended family, Avis was actually born an uncle, and certainly had his fair share of difficulties growing up.  Discovering that he was part of the LGBTQ+ community at an early age, Avis did what all adolescents did in the mid 90's and explored his sexuality through the Internet.

Knowing that his sexuality was going to be a complicated concept for his family to accept, Avis turned to a pretty exotic outlet, adapting an interest in being a witch and dabbling with Wicca.  Surprisingly, he found a niche in his high school years and found the confidence and assurance to let his family know his truth. Their acceptance was slow-rolling, but has progressed over the years.  Avis also boasts a background in hermeneutics and philosophy, which always makes for excellent discussion and arguments.The star of his own YouTube channel, as well, Avis certainly has an exciting tale to tell, and we are pleased to be able to share a portion of his life's story!
