Societal pressure on men to appear tough and self-reliant can lead to the avoidance of medical care since vulnerability is wrongly equated with weakness. For gay men, this is further complicated by the fear of discrimination or judgment in healthcare settings, creating additional barriers to accessing necessary treatment.
In this episode, Mickie Kennedy, author of Glandscapes, joins us to discuss how queer identity and masculinity intersect with health and vulnerability, breaking taboos around gay men’s health and exploring the enduring queer legacy of survival and resilience.
