Peter Ian Cummings '83, a former editor of The Miscellany News, founded XY Magazine to teach and promote gay pride and openness. In an interview with the VQ, Cummings said, "I wanted a magazine that would affirm pride in gay teenagers and assert positive ideals toward sex instead of shame and guilt. And I wanted it to be different than the usual teen magazines on the market. Most do not talk openly about serious topics or issues relating to sex. I am trying to provide the information teens need to make smart decisions."
