Shawn Mendes: there's a desperation for me to come out as being gay | Update: Shawn comments on the gay rumors again


Recommended Posts

Pretty sad honestly. He’s facing the result of toxic masculinity + misogyny + homophobia. Because it’s seen that men have to be masculine, that being feminine is weak, that being feminine or gay is a bad thing, Shawn seems to be struggling with being comfortable with himself as a straight guy with feminine characteristics.

Yet another example of how we need to accept and welcome people as they are, and reflect on our own biases. You can be a man that is feminine, strong, and straight. Being feminine or having feminine characteristics does not make you weak or gay. Being gay is not wrong and doesn’t make you weak, feminine, or less masculine.
