Were you the best little kid in the world? Don’t wanna make any waves? Maybe rebelled from an early age and now don’t take any shit? Either way, pacifying or aggressing are two sides of the same defensive coin that stem from our own underlying fear that we’re not really worth caring about.

In a world where we learn both emotional needs and queerness are wrong, trying to find a nondefensive but strong voice to use for ourselves can seem impossible. Watch my new video, “Why Gays Should Be Needy,” to see not only how but why we should speak up when are needs are going unmet.

This advice is worth what I paid for it.

He desperately didn’t want to lose the lust opportunity! Fortunately, the other guy changed his mindset in 1-2-3? Gray hair and still no wisdom! Let me guess, this guy is perceived by some to be hot, so this lackluster therapist gets the Queerty platform treatment. Sad!

I think if you had Richard Simmons say the Same thing, at least we’d get a Box of Tissues & a Box of Twinkies in The End !

Isn’t this the same guy who had the “pretty privileged” vid?
PLAYS WELL WITH OTHERS
Good catch!
Apparently the “pretty” tag still applies. Because he is still pretty annoying and absolutely pretty full of himself, because he has the sexual appeal of a Ken doll……

Queen, grow up. You remind me of the early 1980’s and a prissy queen the same age I was (22) who had never done a hard days work (manual labor) in her life. I met him at Studio One. We went back to my house and he turns his nose up saying he wasn’t into drugs when I rolled a joint. He rolled up both socks and placed ( I said PLACED, not put) them neatly in his shoes. When he neatly FOLDED his bvd’s by then I had had enough and he knew it and left. It was what it was, country queen meets prissy city queen in my case and I’ll bet thats the same case here nearly forty years later. The only thing that has really changed is nowadays those types of queens are so narcissistic they create youtube channels believing they and their stories really matter. I’ll bet if she gets enough followers she is going to start a ministry once she hits forty-five. Imagine that, a gay Joyce Meyer.

The other guy he’s talking about is Kyle Krieger. The other Youtube “celebrity. For some reason I knew that. Kissing each other must be like kissing a mirror. Lol

I do wonder what are Queerty’s advertising rates for shit like them. An advertisement is ALL that this is. Clearly they aren’t getting enough clicks to be paid by youtube (the last I heard it has to be one million clicks or more) so they resort to sending out emails to whomever has a website set up being passed off as gay media. Lord, I ask you will there ever be an end to all of this.

Not THIS douchebag again.

My husband and I don’t take shit from anyone. We hate Trump but are forced to vote for him for financial reasons. Our stocks and securities have never been worth more. We paid less income taxes and made more money this year than every before. That is where the husband and I are victims. We HAVE to vote for the orange turd!
