Post workout sweat anybody?

When I started making content, I was really just acknowledging that I have physical attributes that are marketable in the gay space. The last thing I thought was that my worldview, or sharing my life experiences, might be beneficial to anyone.

It still amazes and surprises me that I keep getting messages and DMs from guys (mostly older guys actually) who see themselves in my writing and feel seen or validated through my content.

And like, in a way, that validates me right back. It proves that I was wrong about my initial assumption of what I had to offer. I thought it was just the visuals. And don’t get me wrong - I’m all for it. I love the thirst. I love being shameless.

But it turns out that being shameless with my words has value too.

My opinion about Pride Month has changed as I’ve gotten older.

I’ve come to acknowledge that two people can experience the same thing very differently. I’m just one person, with my own experiences, challenges, privileges, and perspective.

When I first came out and moved to a big city, Pride was incredibly validating. Seeing hundreds of thousands of people celebrating openly made me realize I wasn’t alone. Which is, like, super important.

But even then, it wasn’t like I showed up and suddenly found a community. There wasn’t a sign that said, “Here’s your book club, here’s your weekly meetup, here’s your people.” For me, it was mostly a reminder that there were other people who had experiences similar to mine.

The older I’ve gotten, and the more Pride events I’ve attended, the more cynical I’ve become about some parts of it. It can feel like a branding opportunity for companies and a chance for people to signal their values. And even though it sounds kinda counterproductive, I think that’s partly a sign of progress.

Homosexuality, queerness, and different forms of self-expression have become normalized enough that they’re now woven into mainstream consumer culture. In some ways, that’s exactly what we wanted. We wanted acceptance. We wanted visibility. We wanted to matter in the places where society pays attention. Where the money is.

But I’ve also come to feel that the rainbow flag is often treated more like a product than a community.

When I think about community, I think about my gay sports teams. I think about my friend groups. I think about the people I actually know and spend time with. Community requires relationships. It requires in-person interactions. That’s just how humans work.

So when I hear people talk about “the gay community,” I don’t really think of a marketing campaign or a once-a-year celebration. I think of people working toward something together, sharing experiences, supporting one another, and building relationships that exist long after the parade is over.

The other day I heard someone say that gay culture is your family not knowing anything about your life. Can you relate to that sentiment?

Friendly reminder to myself:

There are two very different states of existence.

One is being a reasonably intelligent adult capable of long-term thinking, emotional regulation, and making good decisions.

The other is letting a certain soldier take command of the operation.

In my experience, whenever the soldier is in charge, almost none of my thoughts are useful, productive, or particularly aligned with my long-term goals.

The good news is that most of the soldier’s problems can usually be solved with five minutes, an iPhone, and a bathroom.

Carry on.

Be honest - do you trim your body hair?
