Haaz grew up gay in the United Arab Emirates & in Lebanon during the civil war & the Syrian occupation. We talk about our feminine & masculine sides & whether they clash or coexist, the eyes of love & the fullness of being human; about gay bars, lesbians & trans, Fetish lifestylers, introverts & extroverts, people who are genuine & posers, gender blind & non binary people, the male gaze vs the female gaze in patriarchy. We talk about the self-repression of gay men, same kink over variety, bottom shaming, the great injustice that prevents men from wearing make up dresses skirts wigs & acting emotional, & the greater injustice that equates our self-respect to what we do in bed. We talk about the acting profession & the suspicion that actors are good liars, & the vast empowerment of coming out because being honest about our sexuality isn’t slutty or shameful but life-changingly powerful.
