    "The white gay story is not the only story" Loved that phrase, and I can totally relate to that being a Costa Rican. Great video and great topic, fits perfect for a podcast!

      You're definitely right, there! Unfortunately, that's all many of us ever experience growing up. But there's a whole rainbow of perspectives to consider!

      @@AGayInTheLife Exposure to gay people is something that really makes an impact in gay people and society in general. The first gay person I saw on Tv presented in a positive way was Ellen Degeneres, before that, at least here in Costa Rica, every gay character or gay person on Tv was someone to make fun off, fomenting stereotipes and missinformation. To this day, is very hard to find a gay person on Costa Rican Tv that resembles how our community really is.

    first obvious statement: HE IS SO DAMN HANDSOME, honestly. I can't even compute.
    But, beside his looks, I really do admire him so much. I read his memoir and watched many panels where he talked about his experience in the UK growing up, the racism there and the more subtle racism in America about like not treating Asians like full human beings and not a stereotype. I love how honest, direct and real he is. He's one of the most real people I ever came across. He has such a strong authoritative energy and personality but he's super sweet about it.

    Beautiful interview and beautiful words shared by Tan! so eloquent and charismatic always. there are not enough words to express how delightful he is in real life and how strong and reselient he is . fully agree with everything he said, about how some people just want to sleep with Asian minorities but don't want to marry them, or how there's a fetish going on, on how people in those communities are so alienated by others, on how people needs to stop with the stereotypes...such a import discussion to be had everyday. REPRESENTATION MATTERS

      It absolutely matters! Hopefully we can show people that via this channel! And we wish we could've put even more of our interview into this vid. Check out Tan's book for more insight as to how he felt growing up as a South Asian man with zero representation.

    Interesting and very informative. Being Cuban our culture is very male oriented and Fathers find it very hard to accept a son turning out gay. Fortunately I was blessed myself at having such wonderful understanding and supportive parents. Wonderful interviewed! Keep it up guys..😘

    As always, fantastic interview guys! We will share with all everyone we can, especially with all our middle east followers who continually ask us how to be happy, how to find the strengths to move away from their family and start living the life they deserve. It is so good to hear that other kids out there were/ are playing with what the 'hetero norms' consider stupidly 'girly' toys. I (Ricky) used to play with a Pocahontas doll whose hair was changing colours under the water, and Arif use to have a little market and kitchen! We have to thank our parents for that:) As mentioned, today we will protest against this new Italian law that will be triggered in a few days. It will give straight people the right to discriminate the LGBTQ+ community and be protected for it. We will be posting on Instagram and RUclips as our social media will be the only place to speak up and be heard as this news is not on TV. Thank you ever so much for everything you are doing!❤️❤️❤️❤️

      Thank you, guys! We'll definitely be keeping track of what's going on in Italy, too! Hopefully you can help change some minds there.

    hi my name is amber walsh im a fan of garretts i wanted to say that im a gay rights supporter ad i know that on the whole playing with barbies and stuff i loved to play with barbies when i was a kid but what i know is that when it comes to the coming out stories its hard to take in but there are tons of bad things to happen when it comes to the time like there is things in life that they got to get over it you know and like i have some icons tharts drag queens and their coming out stories was so bad like just not so nice and its not really that nice to do anything bad and they just pack up and move to another part of america and thats the thing for gay rights what gay rights is that when they are gasy its hard and it can be upsetting and if some of those people are like gtting upset thats when they think of the negtives and they should be thinking about the postives but once they embrace it you can live it so when they meet their partner its romtantic and wonderful what has taught me is that there are so many ways to get through it and once the parents have met that partner their minds change and just embrace it and once thery get to know the partner they can easliy change their mid and their like he is super nice and thoughtfull and what gay rightd has taught me was the critzing is mean and just no bullying them and gay rights is about loving the partner to have the right to be gay and have a life. amber
