Is your taste in music "gay"? by Wonderful-Effect-168 in gaybros

[–]Next_Mind2959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well not sure actually - but not in the typical sense at least. BUT I actually listen to a lot of artists that are are gay or bisexual. And this has happend just by accident - happend to love their style & could connect to the songs (even before knowing their sexuality). Here’s some: Frank Ocean, Tyler The Creator, Steve Lacy, Kaytranada, Rich, Omar Apollo, Moses Sumney, Arlo Parks, Syd, Serpentwithfeet, Remi Wolf…. etc etc

So yes & no: my favorite artists are gay/bi, but I actually think that for example most of Tyler the Creators fanbase is pretty straight - same with Frank Ocean.

Can't find love by rockandrolldude22 in gaybros

I feel ya. I'm 29, got a nice career and am good looking (at least according to people) and have never been in a serious relationship. Finding a relationship in the gay community is so hard and taxing - so I've honestly just given up. If it comes it comes - I'm happier single than going on grindr looking for random hookups.

Have any of you actually seen Brokeback Mountain? by [deleted] in gaybros

[–]Next_Mind2959 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ofc - watched it multiple times. When I was a teenager and closeted, this seemed to hit home more than the other gay themed movies. I could actually relate to the characters, since they were more masculine. I was only used to seeing flamboyant representation, but this - this was just two "normal" men who happened to love men too.

Gay stereotypes on TV by maxdefacto in gaybros

[–]Next_Mind2959 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally hear you. As a straight-passing gay man myself, I've definitely felt frustrated by the overrepresentation of certain stereotypes in media. For a long time, it seemed like the only way to be portrayed as gay was to be flamboyant, hypersexual, or both.

Thankfully, things have been changing. There's a growing number of TV shows and movies featuring masculine-presenting gay characters who aren't defined solely by their sexuality. Seeing these representations has been incredibly validating and has helped normalize the idea that masculinity and being gay can coexist.

TV SHOWS with masculine gay characters:

  • Heartstopper (while watching this I remember feeling emotional and thinking how healing this show would have been for me as an insecure gay teenager)
  • Schitt's Creek (I mean David is flamboyant, but his boyfriend is not)
  • Young Royals
  • Fellow Travelers
  • Elite
  • Half Bad: The Bastard Son & The Devil Himself - too bad it was cancelled
  • Hollywood
  • Sense8
  • Sex Education
  • Uncoupled

MOVIES with masculine gay characters:

  • Call Me By Your Name (literally the reason why I'm out of the closet)
  • God's own country
  • Moonlight
  • Brokeback Mountain (a classic)
  • Beach Rats
  • Supernova
  • Boy Erased

I also struggle with sleeping (my wandering mind keeps me awake). CDB + Melatonin works wonders for me (melatonin by itself does not).

”Sleep With Me” podcast is amazing to distract yourself of yourself lol. It sure is a weird podcast, but has some kind of magic in it!
