STRAIGHT ACTING: Gay Men, Masculinity & Finding True Love

Angelo Pezzote

Psychologist and counsellor Pezzote reveals the unspoken problem that has so many gay relationships ending – or not even strartling: masculinity. All men, gay or straight, have been socially conditioned to believe that to be overtly gay is feminising and shameful. To compensate, many gay men adopt a macho, “straight-acting” persona that blocks them from expressing their true selves, and prevents them from forging real, lasting connections with other men.

Pezzote delivers crucial insights on the importance of ditching the macho act and learning to be true to yourself. His advice is applicable to both men who are single, or those who want to move closer to their partners, and his advice will help them get – and keep – the kind of relationship they really want.
