Expressing Your Femininity
Expressing your feminine energy does not diminish your masculinity or make you less of a man.
Each person is a unique expression of masculine and feminine energies, and this expression is a natural and valid part of our identity.
In today's episode, we are sharing our own experiences of discovering and expressing our feminine energy. We'll explore various aspects of embracing our inner femininity, from fashion and emotional expression to intuition and relationships. We're answering questions such as:
What aspects of yourself do you consider feminine?
How has your expression of femininity evolved?
How do you find the balance between your inner masculine and feminine?
This is a must-listen episode that will inspire, inform, and celebrate the beauty of being true to yourself, regardless of societal expectations.
Don't forget to check out last week's episode on Expressing Your Masculinity.

Aging
Aging is an inevitable part of life, but we each have a unique relationship with it.
Some of us embrace it with open arms and don't buy into the idea of a "gay death" at a certain age.
Others struggle with aging and cling to our youth and relevance as each year passes.
In this episode of Gay Men Going Deeper, we’re talking about our own relationship to aging and what it means to “age well.”
Some of the questions we’ll be unpacking are:
What has been your relationship to aging?
What do you like and dislike about aging?
Where do your ideas/beliefs about aging come from?
How would you define “aging well” on your own terms?
Who is someone who you perceive to have “aged well”?
