Surprise, we’ve got a VERY special, and provocative episode! With old views on various human rights issues being challenged more and more each day, we’re doing our part to keep up, learn, and support our fellow humans by offering as much love as possible. We’re excited and full of PRIDE to have an expert in today to guide us on all things LGBTQ+. We have speaker and author of A Gay Man’s Guide To Life, Britt East, in to discuss the release of his book and the past experiences that inspired him to write it, how homophobia can be considered sexual abuse, why we should all be ruling each other in rather than ruling eachother out, how hiding who you are can affect milestones like first crushes, first kisses and other crucial developmental stages in a gay person’s life, how gay dating became transactional, and why that can develop a crippling fear of intimacy, the social injustices within the gay community you didn’t know existed, what racism looks like with in the gay community and why it’s more stark than you think, how sexual preference labels can be hurtful and helpful at the same time, what gender roles look like for gay men, why the future is pansexual, how we can help the gay youth of today, and why the formula for finding love is to first figure out who you are and then to follow the energy. Love is love!
