I really relate to this struggle Will. I also came from a small and somewhat homophobic town, and it was hard growing up when my sexuality was at odds with the social norm. As a consequence I really had a similar experience to you…
I think with other gay men its kind of hard to get along with everyone. Because were kind of expected to fit the norm that is gay culture and that can be hard to do. I definitely find going to gay clubs really alienating at times. Personally, I feel like the easiest way to feel comfortable in your sexuality is just do things like that workshop where your involved in the queer community and are around other queer people! Then it becomes something of a norm rather than something you have to work on…
