This week on The B-Side, Marie, Bridget, and Ares sit down with guest Ashley to explore the complex realities of same-sex attraction among men who identify as straight. Together they unpack how secrecy, stigma, and a lack of language have long shaped the experiences of “mostly straight” men — and why deep listening and empathy are essential for real understanding.

From Ashley’s reflections on 90s biphobia and consent culture, to Ares’ personal story of navigating identity, this conversation dives into the hidden emotional lives of men living between labels. The team also examines humour, cultural coding, and what it means to build a genuine bi+ culture rooted in nuance, consent, and authenticity.

Listen in for a powerful reminder that sexuality isn’t about fitting a label — it’s about being heard.
