      The shorts about feeling alone resonates with me, as I grew up as an only child as a Catholic in Rural Ireland during the 1980’s, yet because of this, my only child and ultra strict Irish Catholic upbringing led to my not having my sexual orientation being regarded as real nor valid by other gay men on the Dublin gay scene at the time, even during the 1990’s - early 2000’s when I’d lived in Dublin for 3 years - this was much worse when I’d moved to Manchester U.K. in 2002 and as a result, I’d gradually distanced myself from the gay scene for a long time, but there are certain things that I fundamentally disagree with on gay life and the gay scene as a devout traditional Catholic and Irish patriot - needless to say, Covid has changed our world in so many ways, so at age 52, I feel that the gay community is at an important crossroads in relation to so many issues and aspects of gay life going forward

    As a gay man I have never been a big fan of drag. But I am very open minded and believe everyone should be able to live and express themselves in what ever way makes them feel whole and happy. I don't allow stereotypes or peer pressure to ever dictate how I look, act or feel. I am a fierce supporter of LGBTQ+ rights and freedom's and a huge ally for women's rights to control their own bodies. I passionately despise any type of racial or trans hate and discrimination.

HOWEVER, I started watching drag race around season 8 and I’m now a super fan! It’s absolutely hilarious and it’s absolutely entertaining. Their talent is incredible and they deserve the recognition and respect by their own community. I suggest that you give it a try, RuPaul is so damn funny and even though it’s not your thing or my thing, you’ll relate cuz gay is the same no matter where we’re from. The jokes, innuendos etc. you’ll appreciate it! ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼

    What up, Chris!! I don't think I've said this but I'm brand new to your channel and I've basically been binge watching your videos the last couple of days along with Calvin's videos. In this video, #8 "feeling like the only one" is the one that struck me the most. I'm a 41 year old gay black man from southeast Alabama and have ALWAYS felt like I'm the ONLY ONE. Even in 2023, I still feel this. #1 was also another thing that clicked in my brain. Since I'm not "obviously gay" I definitely try to find ways to show that I am gay. Like wearing subtle pride jewelry like earrings or bracelets. Hmmm....what else. I have watched Drag Race quite a few times. Sometimes it's too cringe so I flip back over to the Golden Girls but for the most part, I like watching drag race. And, I've never really had a good gaydar, surprisingly, but now YES my gaydar is even MORE off these days. Idk who the f**k is what anymore. I get vibes, then hear "oh yeah, and my girlfriend...." and I'm like WTF, weren't you just flirting with me? 🤔I've really been enjoying your videos. I wish this kind of outlet had been around when I was a 20 something year old, lol. But it just shows how far things have come along and I'm glad for it. Keep doing what you do, fam!! You have a positive influence on LGBTQ+ people across all age ranges!! It's a beautiful thing! 🥰

    met my future husband shortly after getting out of the military. Met him in a gay bar and fell in love right away. We dated for like three years before he moved in and been together ever since. Most all of our friends are straight couples, and we get together fairly often for house parties, lots of wine 🍷 and food. Love to BBQ so we always get a large group.
    Neither of us have really been into watching drag race, but have watched it a couple of times.
    I've been a blue-collar worker working outdoors my entire life, so not really into clothes. Mainly jeans or shorts and a T-shirt with my cowboy hat.
    Chris, I absolutely love your channel and I think you definitely found your niche in regards to social media. Your boyfriend is very lucky to have such an awesome intelligent creative guy in his life… Plus you're really easy on the eyes. 🤣✌🏻 I will.🏳️‍🌈😊

    Chris, I saw your Short on #8 Feeling like you're the only one, that was #1 with me.
    I was born in 1965, I just turned 59 on April 2nd, the oldest of seven, of which I'm only close with one. I knew/felt "different" since the day I was born. When I was 3 years old I felt so intensely sad and alone, that there was NO ONE ELSE in the entire world who felt like I felt. I felt that way until I was 19, graduated high school, and moved away. Today, it's just me and my dogs. I'm celibate and love my solitude. And I'm honored and proud to be a fellow member of our worldwide LGBTQ+ community. 🙂❤🙏

I was super hesitant to even meet him because I thought I would stop talking to him after seeing him. However, "I instantly feel head over heels for I love" for him. He was not the body type I was looking for, but for some reason I was instantly in love with him. We have been together now for over 9 years, we plan to get married in the summer of 2024.

    My guess is though that gay Men , in general, have a quicker deeper ability to accept and sometimes to understand and to recognize other peoples' points of view, likes, dislikes.. and such...
    Fascinating ... that is only part of the celebration of Diversity that has sort of gotten messed up and being manipulated by some people in society ..

    I've never watched Drag Race. Sorry, I just have never got the allure.

    One of the mosts thing that I love of being gay is that we aren't commited to fit into a certain type of masculinity or femininity, we can just express ourselves as we want, we dont have that one preassure to be "macho".
    Edit: ❤💘💛💚💙💜

    I have watched every season of Drag Race....... love the humor....the memes...the queens themselves. They are such great artists and entertainer, comedians, performer. Really one of the best thing I discovered in recent years.

    I’ve always identified as 100% gay, but I can only relate to one of your criteria.
    Is it a generational difference or am I just a straight guy who loves dick?
    🤔
    Who knew we straights could be closeted, too?

    I saw some people doing thier lists of what they agree with and thought it might be fun
    1. I have a terrible fashion sense, it’s hard enough to find something to wear in general I mostly just wear hoodies 😂😂😂
    2.Same I feel like I never had a great gaydar but it’s been getting worse instead of better 😅
    3. I’ve never dated someone but part of the reason is probably because it can be hard. I always kinda fantasized about the whole random appearing in each others life from romances and I suck at texting and messaging so dating apps sound intimidating. I still get they are the probably the best option but I still envy that straight people don’t really need to worry about finding people to date like this.
    4. Okay soooo I’m gonna be honest I’ve seen a couple clips but I heard a woman talking about it making her feel as if she was being made fun of and mocked and that has stopped me from really getting too into it. What she said just kinda spoke to me and I don’t want people to feel that way.
    5. Yes. I love my mom. ❤ I don’t really have a great relationship with my dad because he is super Christian and we don’t live together anymore and my sisters share that with me and they are also LGBTQ. I also find I pulled away from male role models as a kid like my uncles and my granddad.
    6. I had weird upbringing so my my knowledge of popular music pretty limited and right now my playlists kinda bacic. I am a completive and classical musician however I still really adore it and hope to become a composer one day. 🎵😙
    7. Super introverted so parties are not really my thing
    8. Yessss!😩 I feel that completely I feel like I’ve had 5 gay or bi people in my life and I wouldn’t even call most of them friends.😭😭😭
    9. Again the introvert in me makes it hard to get to know people like this so I’m not able to answer this one yet but I feel like I’m the future that will change.
    10. Yes I agree all the time I had a gay friend and they just kinda assumed I loved drag and fashion because we are both gay so as you can imagine that was a little awkward 😅 but yeah it pretty rampant even within the community.
