Founded in 2005 by a group of volunteers in Beijing, Les+ was a non-profit organization working on the dissemination of queer culture in China. It launched the first publicly published lala  (LBT - lesbian, bisexual and transgendered people) magazine Les+ in China. Les+ aimed to foster queer culture through arts and media advocacy; document and represent the culture of and current situation facing lala through cultural transmission; eliminate discrimination against lala; and advance their equal rights in order to create a possible future of diversity, equality and liberty.

 

Besides publishing Les+, the organization also co-organized media public relations workshops on and for the LGBT community and workshops on the use of the media to give a voice to the LGBT community. It also published two guidebooks about media and LGBT issues – Guidebook on Reporting LGBT News and Guidebook on LGBT People’s Speaking Out.

 

In 2015, the founder of Les+ announced that the publication of Les+ would stop and that she would focus on her new project Yummy – an app on women’s sexual pleasure.

 

 

Les+是由志願者於2005年在北京組成的非營利中國酷兒文化傳播機構。Les+主要出版國內第一份公開發佈的拉拉雜誌《les+》，以酷兒文化建設、藝術探索、媒體宣導為主要使命；以文化傳播的方式，記錄和展現中國女同性戀、女雙性戀、跨性別等人群現狀和文化；致力於消除針對女同性戀、女雙性戀、跨性別-愛女等酷兒女性的歧視，促進其平等權益，而看到多元、平等、自由的可能性。

 

Les+除了創辦雜誌，也曾與其他組織共同籌辦LGBT媒體公關工作坊及針對LGBT小組利用媒體發聲的工作坊，並出版《LGBT媒體報導建議手冊》及《性少數發聲指南》。

 

2015年，創辦人決定停刊並專注開放Yummy——一個女性愉悅為主要議題的app.
