Edgar Gomez

POPSUGAR Contributor

Edgar Gomez is currently working on his first book High-Risk Homosexual, a memoir about holding on to pride while coming-of-age of in a culture of machismo. Following his life through snapshots set in queer spaces—from a drag queen convention in Los Angeles, Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, and the doctor’s office where he was diagnosed a high-risk homosexual—his stories capture the risk of being gay and Latino, and the joy that makes this identity worthwhile. He lives in Brooklyn and is @highriskhomo across social.
