Article body:
Quare Theory is a title that Black Gay Men have created for themselves, a title that encompasses the struggles of their intersectionality. Based off of the early definitions of Queer Theory, this new term was created to describe the culturally shared experiences of gay black men. From sharing stories about coming out and navigating the world as a Quare individual to finding the motives to make videos on youtube, this essay on Quare vernacular purposefully explores Quare in media. Quare Theory, being different and separate from Queer theory, is an example of a diverse intersectionality that is considering race, sexuality and nationality.

Quare individuals are black gay men whom face challenges in society that are unique to themselves. The word Quare comes from an incorrect pronunciation of "Queer" spoken by author, E. Patrick Johnson's grandmother who lives in North Carolina. Places on the internet like YouTube allows gay black men to share their similar experiences coming out and receiving criticism which helps to define what Quare means for them. The Quare community has made clear the importance of the distinction between Quare and Queer because their intersectionality has not offered the same privileges or experiences as other Queer people.
