Why is femininity often devalued among gay men and where do those preferences actually come from?
In this episode, host Dustin breaks down the psychology of masculinity, femininity, and attraction using a clinical lens. Moving beyond surface-level “preference” debates, this conversation explores how gender expression, early social experiences, and cultural reinforcement shape what we’re drawn to and how we see ourselves.
This episode is about understanding where our preferences come from and what they may be doing beneath the surface.
