Masculinity, Homophobia, and Gay Male Non-monogamy: Dynamics in Gay Male Relationships

The discussion will begin from the premise that each member of a gay couple has been raised and, for the most part, continues to live in a homophobic society that impacts their relationship to their own and each other’s sexuality and gender expression. From this context, non-monogamous relations will be considered as potential sequelae to foundational traumas and agentic attempts at coping with them.
