IN THIS EPISODE
Joseph Contorer, MA, LMFT, is a California and Oregon-based psychotherapist and author, with over 30 years of experience. He specializes in helping clients with relationships, mental health challenges, and personal empowerment through a holistic approach. His book, You’ve Been Blocked, The Search for Gay Male Perfection, explores how gay men are often restricted from their true selves during childhood, leading to lifelong “blocking” that impacts their adult lives and relationships.
We discuss topics including:
- What is “blocking”?
- Understanding “straight normal” and “gay normal”
- Gay children and gay adults will act a certain way due to being blocked
- What is “The M-Ranking”?
- Internalized homophobia
