It’s time to stop blaming preference and start exposing the real forces behind our dating confusion.👇 What You’ll Learn in This Episode→ Why the data actually disproves the “bottom overload” theory→ How internalized shame + pressure lead many men to mislabel themselves → The real impact of dating apps on gay sexual identity→ Why top visibility is silenced (and why bottom visibility isn’t)→ How to rewrite your narrative around roles, identity, and desire→ And how to create safer, more honest relationships in a post-label world💬 Sound familiar?
