Hear Me Out: My Story
Send us a text In this episode, I talk about hypermasculinity, toxic masculinity, growing up in heteronormative homes, that masculine is good and anything less than is bad. How gay men function in society being someone else than who they are because of our culture saying masculine is good and anything else is bad. Living as two different presentations or what we think we should be is tiring and does no good.

I think probably the most important thing to talk about regarding dating apps is mental health. Are they doing more harm than good and what are the outcomes?

Send us a text In this episode, I talk about my dad and some of the abusive things that happened to me over the years. Families are complex organisms with lots of stuff going on. Try to remember that you were a child and your parents were supposed to protect you. Things that happened were not your fault. I felt a sense of relief when I learned I am not my parents and my parents are not me. I can be my own person and take care of myself. If you are a victim of abuse, I care and people care.
