MY KPOP GAY ANALYSIS

He ially me out as gay 2015, and upon g Korea, his iends told him to keep his sexualy secret - but he's proud of his inty, makg him the first Korean artist who is openly gay. His actns are safe, his personaly is purely brotherly and lear like, and he tends to prefer stayg his own rner wh his head phon and lookg at his phone while ignorg the I'll say out of all of the members BTS, Jim is the only one I ially thought of beg homosexual.

Here's a list of people that are mored to be gay and here's what I thk they are:Shee Keygenrqueer(even key stans assumed he was gay at first but as time went by, they jt assume he's metrosexual so idk tbh) --(he strik me more as genrqueer, sexualy is hard to tell though)Shee Taemstraight as a lerExo SehunBisexual/PansexualEven before I even knew he had any gay mors (jt found out recently btw), I always assumed he was a pansexual guy. He jt seems shy to me (he's plited I n't tell)Vixx NStraight(don't even know where his gay mors even me om)Super Junr Ryewook (idk how to spell his name)straight? He even addrsedtwter when people judged his fashn sense), this is all MY OPINION so don't go believg what I say jt e I said, random note but I watch Shane Dawson a lot (my fave youtuber) and I always thought Garret was straight and Drew was gay.

This is no way tend to offend anyone:)So recently, I've spent a lot of time thkg about kpop groups (pecially exo) and how their label and/or fans would react if they me out as gay or bi etc. Along wh Oh Sehun, I have been pickg up on some siar vib om some of his other members;) While many people assume that members such as Jongdae or Mseok are gay, I suppose I've put more thought to .

WHO IN EXO TLY COULD BE GAY?

Mª Angel Rodríguez-Arenas, Amic Edor and Belén Sanz-Barbero, Amic EdorAbstractCurrently, rearch explicly examg masculy and ternalized homonegativy is sparse, and even sparser studi are those g qualative methods. To addrs this, this study aims to explore: how genr norms are nstcted and experienced amongst gay men; and how genr and sexual inty are experienced relatn to mascule norms amongst gay men.

IT’S A MAN’S WORLD: A QUALATIVE STUDY OF GENR AND SEXUALY AMONGST ATRALIAN GAY MEN

Furthermore, gay men emphasize the nflict experienced between heteronormative genr and sexualy norms, which highlights the term homosexual male as an oxymoron. Masculy and Homosexualy: Lerature ReviewThe current lerature matas that heteronormative masculi pict gay men as beg more feme than their heterosexual unterparts and affect perceptns of their genr and sexual inty [7, 8, 9].

Internalized homonegativy has been noted to relate to prsn, poor wellbeg, sexual discrimatn, shame, body dissatisfactn, eatg disorrs, and suicidal iatn, and rults more extreme and unbearable stat of md men than women [12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17]. As such, is imperative that the role of genr norms (specifilly, masculy) on non-heteronormative dividuals’ experienc of genr and sexual inty be addrsed to alleviate mory strs, improve mental health, wellbeg, and qualy of life, and rce heteronormative gay men, homosexual masculy is often referred to as “straight-actg” masculy and is argued to be an emulatn of heteronormative masculy—and, arguably, heterosexualy [21, 22]. HWhile heterosexual masculy is perceived as an thentic and natural genr performance, whereas homosexual masculy is perceived as a stumed drama [23]; “homosexual men are more like women…Even the most mascule gay man is a b sissy” [24].

The social nstctn of masculy, therefore, generat a reified oxymoron out of the phras “homosexual male” and “gay man”, whereby both terms are perceived as direct opposns of each stra gay men may experience their efforts to be as heteronormatively mascule as possible, spe their homosexualy, is perpetuated by prejudice and discrimatn all areas of life that serve to ern socially acceptable exprsns of masculy. For example, gay men who are overly ncerned wh genr norms and mascule body ials are argued to be pensatg for their feelgs of ternalized homonegativy and ferry [8, 25, 26, 27].

As a rult, gay men who have ternalized heteronormative masculy and the strict l there participate policg other gay men, as well as themselv through pensatory behavr, as a means of mimizg gay men’s effemacy stereotyp [19]. It n be further argued that the discrimatn between straight-actg and effemate gay men, particularly wh personal advertisements, normaliz, and even glorifi, the divisive social practice. Furthermore, was only wh the last five years—December 2017—that Atralia passed the Marriage Amendment (Defn and Relig Freedoms) Act 2017, which legalized marriage between same-sex upl [36] to this, discrimatn agast genr and sexualy diverse groups was mon, wh arguments of gay and lbian relatnships beg unnatural [36].

Based on a synthis of lerature, Figure 1 picts a prelimary nceptual mol of the typil elogil environment for a gay man and highlights var areas heteronormative masculy pervas and exerts an fluence. Begng om the macro level of a gay man’s social elogy, heteronormative masculy permeat the psychology of how they perceive themselv, others, and the world and extends to the micro- and mo-systems that enforce heteronormative genr and sexual inti through teractns wh iends and fay members (microsystem), as well as strangers and lleagu (mosystem) [7, 19, 25, 29, 30, 31, 42]. It n, therefore, be argued that the role of heteronormative masculy on a gay man’s life nnot be examed isolatn but, rather, as a plete system of factors, each ntributg to the manufacturg of ternalized homonegativy.
