Gay men's apparel and lifestyle shop on N College Ave in Indianapolis
Toolbox Men's Supply Company is a brick-and-mortar men's shop on North College Avenue near the edge of downtown, specializing in fashion underwear, swimwear, and gear. Owner Gregory Gilmore founded it in 2012 to give Indianapolis a real storefront for labels locals previously had to order online — a curated wall of brands you can actually try on rather than guess at. The selection runs bold and body-conscious, with a range of fits and an inclusive size spread, and the staff treat it as a styling stop rather than a quick grab. For LGBTQ+ visitors, it's a useful daytime detour: an easy, no-pressure place to restock before a Pride weekend, a circuit party, or a night out, and one of the few dedicated shops of its kind in the city.

A gay bar is a bar. Here's what actually happens on a normal night, why walking in alone is easier than you think, and how to pick the right one for your first time.

A calm, practical answer to every question first-timers actually have about gay bathhouses — how check-in works, the unwritten rules, what things cost, and why almost everyone there came alone.

The rainbow flag has meant something specific since 1978 — one word per stripe, assigned by the man who dyed the first one. What every color means, why two stripes are gone, and all the other flags.

Drag is an art form, not an identity, and what people assume about it is off. Here's what a drag queen actually is, where drag came from, what the job pays, and how the illusion gets built.
