Like all traditional rodeos, IGRA rodeos also sponsor an annual royalty competition to determine the twelve individuals who will comprise the IGRA Royalty Team. Each fall the various associations send either their state winners or their first runners-up to compete for the Mr. (male that presents as male), Ms. (female that presents as female), Miss (male that presents as female), and MsTer (female that presents as male) International Gay Rodeo Association sashes. In September 1985 with 10 years of rodeo history behind it, groups of men gathered in Denver, Colorado to formulate the history of Gay Rodeo. The five founding states of the International Gay Rodeo Association were Colorado, Texas, California, and Arizona. These four associations seated the Oklahoma Gay Rodeo Association at its first convention held in the same year. The new Association elected Wayne Jakino from Colorado as its first President. A massage therapist comes to the ranch mid-week. Most people enjoy a relaxing massage after time in the saddle! All Boys Love dramas revolve around same-sex relationships so, personally, I think they represent diversity. They are a sub-part of the LGBTQ genre. However, at the end of the day, we’re talking about the Boys Love genre that focuses on romantic fantasy and not more serious LGBTQ issues such as equality and HIV. Being in the middle of this lengthy discussion for so long, I have had to find the right balance between what the audience needs and what needs to be done,” he explains. “Many LGBT individuals possibly live their lives like those [in Boys Love series]. You see young same-sex couples everywhere, right? Society is now more open and they might not have to overcome many obstacles like those before them. So if you take this case into account, Boys Love series could be real [examples of society]. It’s not that we need to force anyone to come out, but rather we need to create a space where riders feel safe enough to be who they are

It was also around this time where the laddish behaviour from fellow riders started to appear. This manifested itself with homophobic slurs, insulting other riders in a homophobic way, and even talking about girls in a derogatory way. As if to underline the point, just after Clay’s interview was published, a talented male junior rider reached out to us, keen to share his own story and experiences of being a gay rider in the sport. He has asked that we published this piece anonymously, fearful of how he might be perceived by other riders, coaches, teams, etc.This is what he had to say…Our 1,500+ members enjoy over 500 events each year.

At an RSR level, British Cycling pushes out workshops on anti-doping, which is great, but that is only one aspect of making cycling a safe sport. In three years of these sessions, I never once heard anything about inclusivity. Even now, I see British Cycling statements about pride or ethnic inclusion, and I find them wishy-washy and forced. The wide reception and popularity of Thai Boys Love owes so much to the freedom of gender expression in Thailand. But is the LGBTQ community actually benefiting from the increasing popularity of Boys Love novels and series? The 2014 documentary film Queens & Cowboys follows the story of cowboy Wade Earp and others who compete in the IGRA. Earp discusses how he does not compete in rodeos outside IGRA because, "There's still a lot of homophobia. As progressive as we think the world's gotten, there's so much we have to conquer."

On one afternoon we’ll do a rafting trip on the Stillwater River. A tributary of the Yellowstone River, the Stillwater meanders through a one-sided canyon, which was once home of the Crow Indians and buffalo herds. The river offers class II & III rapids and is a great introduction to whitewater rafting
An LGBTQ advocate himself, Nopparat tries to inject a message about gender acceptance into every Boys Love series he produces. He’s also the mind behind GMMTV’s LGBTQ productions, many of which have been praised for their complex and thought-provoking narratives, including Gay OK Bangkok. “We see new narratives, more diversity popping up every day. For example, I’m really interested in the gender fluidity young people are talking about these days. The world of LGBTQ is sensitive and needs further exploration.” The butterfly effect:The unexpected consequences of popularity
