Highlights of Cosmopolitan India- May-June 2025 issue:

The latest edition of Cosmopolitan India is about living your best life, and celebrating YOU—flaws and all. In this issue, those from the LGBTQIA+ community write a heartfelt letter to their first allies, while we also discuss what it's like being queer at the workplace and on the field. Wanna spice up your sex life? Role-play is on the cards! Loving—and owning—your body is another central theme of the celebration issue (big-chested girls, we hear you!). And how can we forget our fabulous cover stars Kayan, Dot., Sukriti Kakar, and Ananya Sharma who are super relatable, fun, and the sound of the generation. On trend, as always, our May-June '25 issue canvasses the latest in beauty, fashion, and sub-culture trends.

What's the difference between gender identity and sexual orientation?

Beyond the binaries of gay and straight, male and female lies a broad spectrum of identities. (All are real and valid, despite what certain executive orders or conservative talking points would have you believe.)
