About YOUR EX
YOUR EX (formerly express) has been New Zealand’s leading LGBTQ+ media since 1991. Our publications include our go-to website, a full-gloss, nationwide monthly magazine (available in both print and digital formats), an exclusive email distribution list, and a strong social media presence.
Our Mission
YOUR EX is New Zealand’s only LGBTQ+ magazine and media. Our goal is to continuously inform, support and strengthen the LGBTQ+ community New Zealand-wide by delving into relevant people, stories and events. YOUR EX celebrated its 32-year anniversary in May 2023, making us the longest-running and only LGBTQ+ publication in Aotearoa. YOUR EX is UNAPOLOGETICALLY QUEER.
