Higher VideosWhat is the male equivalent of pretty privilege. Women get special treatment for their looks, but how do men finesse the same thing. Looking at Jay-Z, Michael B. Jordan, and the gay community (trade/DL men as well) I explore the dynamics of performing masculinity to achieve status. Masculine men gain favor in an almost toxic way amongst gay men due to the fetishization of the dl man in the closet. Especially in the Black community, Black men's ability to perform masculine behaviors corresponds to their desirability/attractiveness (Michael B. Jordan), popularity (DL men) and acceptance (Jay-Z). I've previously made a video about red pill ideology, there is no red pill toxicity in this video. This is not a tutorial on how to make women like you and become some kind of alpha male or a powerful and dominant man. Red pill and red pill influencers are toxic.

His coming out story falls into the infamous cliché "I don't like labels". Masculine LGBTQ men have long struggled with the words "I'm gay" and it's time we stop cutting them slack. His coming out story being him getting outed makes everything harder but the fact remains, "sexually fluid" is not sufficient.

I pose atheists with the paradox presented by the end of times, something Muslims, Christians, and scientists can all agree on. Is atheism as logical as it is purposed to be?

Should I come out of the closet? Men struggle identifying their sexual orientation all the time. Tyler the Creator, Harry Styles and Tyler Posey are open about their sexual attraction to men and past boyfriends/hook ups but don't call themselves gay or bi or anything. What is it about the words "gay" or "bi" that make men hate labels so much.

Gender queerness and non-binary expressions are often conflated with sexuality when the 2 are very distinct. Dl men are proof that being gay doesn't equal femininity or gender queerness. This video first separates sexuality and gender, then dissects the realities of being gender queer masculine and gender queer feminine.

Latinidad, Afro-Latino and Latinx are all attempts to construct a pan-Latino identity that doesn't seem to exist or serve any purpose for that matter. I'm myself African American and Jamaican. Those are racial ethnicities (most Jamaicans are Black so it's implied) and West Indian is my geographic ethnicity. I compare "Latinos" with Canadians, Arabic people and other groups to show how they are neither a race nor an ethnic group.
