    In the final show of Season Three of Six Vulnerable Conversations between a gay and a straight man entitled What We Want You to Know, we will be discussing our messages to each other and the world on how we can better relate to each other. We’ll be taking off the gloves and speaking the raw truth, the Tuff Love, and more so we can live together in this chaotic world. It’s the last bit of pieces and ideas and concepts to communicate about our ideas about laws and workforces to the youth of America and other countries, and those final little pieces of advice that we each want the other person and you, our audience, to know.

    3.4: Stereotypes

    As a man born of this society, my mind is filled with thousands of misconstrued gay stereotypes, having absorbed this from mainstream media portrayal of gay culture since the day I first started watching TV. Upon closer inspection, 95% of these stereotypes are probably incorrect. But what if they are correct? Are there stereotypes that gay men have of their straight counterparts? In show four of Six Conversations Season 3, Robert and Jeff discuss the numerous stereotypes linked to each other’s sexual orientation. Heterosexuality is so normative in our society that straight men get a free pass. They’re not prejudged while gay individuals are significantly judged solely based on their sexual orientation. Then there’s internalized homophobia, which is a gay man’s hatred of himself for simply existing – like a queer person reacting to queer exposure. It’s terrifying, but it’s the truth. Let’s take a look into the hilarious, honest, and sometimes heartbreaking stereotypes about America’s hetero and homosexual bubble.
