Gay Men Going Deeper

I Don’t Belong in the Gay Community

Listen Later

Have you ever felt like you just don’t belong in the gay community? In today’s episode, we’re tackling the deep and painful feeling of not fitting in—a sentiment shared by many gay men. Some of the topics we’re exploring today are:

  • How do we feel excluded vs. how do we feel included?
  • Belonging vs. fitting in
  • Vulnerability
  • Judging others and ourselves 
  • Core wounding and attachment trauma
  • Fear of rejection
  • Fostering more inclusive spaces 

    • If you’ve ever felt like an outsider or if you want to help create a more inclusive gay community, this episode is for you. Let’s learn how to cultivate belonging, both for ourselves and those around us.
