I don't sit comfortable with other men. I don't sit comfortable with other men. I have had so many negative experiences with other men. I was brutally assaulted by an angry man years ago. It traumatized me greatly, to the point where I don't feel safe sometimes. Some men aren't in touch with their emotions. Women are more open and easier to get on with. I'm careful who I associate with. I'm gay and my father disowned me when i came out. He told my brothers to forget about me. It hurt me badly. Im in my sixties now ,live alone which I prefer. I'm content with my life. And I have found peace. Gabe you do what's right for you. From Carl.
Thanks, Carl. I'm so sorry all of that happened to you. If it makes you feel any better, I'm actually bi-romantic, and have recently been trying to find ways to deal with that within myself and my community. The Latino community generally doesn't take too kindly to people who are not 1,000% straight and act like it.
@@ACrownofFlowers Yes its very sad that people are unaccepting. Things are much better today than when I was young in the 1970s. Be careful around certain people especially men.
Very true. This is part of a series of three videos where I eventually make a point about gender/sex in general. 😁 Also good to see you in the comments again!
Men often have that kinda talk going on,but that's often just bc they can't communicate on a different level. At least when they're younger. I just turned 32 and it changed a lot. Funny enough: my two closest friends are female and both treat me as if we were in a relationship, although we're not. I've been to the US quite a lot, yet I can't really tell why Americans are so different. Here in Europe it's definitely different when it comes to socialising. Gay people often get reduced to sexuality bc that's their only difference, but it's far from the truth. The US is also super christian. Don't give up tho. You're still super young and things will change a lot.
I agree. Most of the people that I actually hang out with though, like even though I would say that ironically my relationships with men are less toxically masculine. Like I don't know I just prefer women because I can actually open up. Plus like I mentioned in other videos, at this point I'm not interested in women's bodies anymore.
@@reniasva I fell in love with a male friend of mine. But even before then I made a quasi religious commitment to not try and focus so much on the body, and I mean given that women face so much objectification I also feel bad about that, and my own experiences with rejection I just felt that it wasn't worth it to pursue any sorts of romantic or sexual relationships with women. I'll make a video about falling in love with my friend eventually.
