How Gay Male Relationships are Different
How are gay male relationships different than heterosexual relationships or female homosexual relationships?
Fundamentally, the difference is that in gay male partnership both partners are governed by the hormone testosterone.
Ken Wilber, the famous philosopher, calls testosterone the “fuck and execute hormone”.
That doesn’t exactly conjure up passionate nights in front of the fireplace where we grant down our guard and express our innermost secrets.
All this testosterone can sometimes be at odds with creating feeling intimacy. Often men have to study how to unite because estrogen, the connection hormone, is not flowing through our blood in large quantities.
That’s what couples counselors do—we teach connection.
What Gets Us Into Trouble
Men do have a reputation for sometimes being “douchey” when seeking sex. (For those who don’t know, “douchey” is the adjective develop of the noun “douche bag.”)
Sometimes, in the hunt for sex, testosterone takes over and the other part of being male—the more tender part—gets submerged for a while. And in the big cities this sometimes creates a gay male subculture where we ignore that even with a hook up, tende
Incompatible Orientation
A nature has an Incompatible Orientation when they are coveted by someone who can never have them, because they just don't swing that way. They can be any character who has an incompatible sexual orientation to their admirer—a straight person with a same-gender admirer, a gay person with an opposite gender admirer, or an aromantic or asexual person with an admirer of any gender.
To meet the requirements of this trope the relationship must be stated as hopeless or impossiblein-universe (by a character or through Word of God) at some point in time. This means that Incompatible Orientation doesn't have to be a permanent state of organism, and attempts may be made within the plot to "fix" it somehow.
In a lot of works, especially manga and anime, this is often done mostly for amusement purposes, having one character as a Hopeless Suitor or even
Gay men with overlapping partnerships are more likely to be recently and locally infected
A study analysing transmission patterns between male lover men in a cohort of patients in San Diego, California has initiate the strongest scientific evidence so far that concurrency – having ongoing sexual relationships with more than one partner at the same time – is an independent predictor of HIV transmission.
It found that men who said they had had condomless sex in the last three months with concurrent partners, rather than just serial partners, were 69% more likely to be in a local transmission pair or cluster that was linked genetically, an indication of HIV transmission between the partners, and the average number of partners they were linked to was 40% greater.
The analyze also found that participants with concurrent partners were 58% more likely to be the likely provider of HIV infection seen in another cohort member, rather than the recipient, and 67% more likely to have apparently passed on their HIV in early infection (between one and six months after infection). However these two observations did not grasp statistical significance.

21 Actors Who Common Where They Pose On The "LGBTQ+ Roles Shouldn't Be Played By Direct Actors" Debate
On theReign with Josh Smith podcast, he said, "In regards to my tweets, I just think that there's a danger with things on social media. In the cast, I'm 18, and we own a few people in their first 20s and even with those older members of the cast, we're all so young, and to start speculating about our sexualities and maybe pressuring us to appear out when maybe we're not ready. I mean, for me, I just feel like I'm perfectly confident and comfortable in my sexuality, but I'm not too enormous on labels and things like that. I'm not large about that. And I don't sense like I depend on to label myself, especially not publicly. That tweet was slightly calling them out but [I] also find it funny...It's 2022, it feels a bit strange to create assumptions about a person's sexuality just based on hearing their voice or seeing their appearance. I feel appreciate that's a very interesting, slightly problematic, sort of assumption to make."
