MM&B Ep. 8 CHRIS - BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN!

This episode's guest is my buddy Chris-an incredible nurse, and a damn good friend. He is someone you'd want by your side when everything's on fire! He's currently serving alongside me in the trenches of the ER, is proudly gay, and has blessed me with his insight into the world of gay cowboys, as we ride no lube and ass-less chapped into the game changing movie BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN! Topics of conversation : American big screen cinema gets uncomfortable, being gay in the 60's, Vietnam draft, and don' t ask-don't tell. Masculinity, gay men in sports, and hiding the truth in the locker room. Unsuspecting tough guy characters that, SURPRISE....are gay. Fight fucking, the down and dirty of the TENT SCENE! How gay men approach sex differently than straight men, denial, and who Chris dated in high school. College experimentation? Nope you're gay! Living secretly inside societal constructs, getting cheated on, and what would happen if Chris caught you! Deep dives into understanding you're different, coming out, telling your parents, and the fear associated with that. Being tortured in relationships, braving other people's ignorance, and the sometimes consequences for gays throughout the decades. What Chris's teenage self would tell him now! Don't worry....It ain't all deep! We dig into lispy gays, butchy lesbians, and the use of the word fag. Sexual predators, Slick Rick, white convertible Chrysler Lebaron's with red leather interiors. THE WONDER BAR bedtime story, the proud pet names we've given our members, and we find out which YMCA character Chris had a crush on!
