HIKG AS A GAY MAN AND HIKG WH A SIGNIFINT OTHER: TWO GUT PERSPECTIV
First is my AT iend Soulslosher, who was the only openly gay th-hiker I knew. I asked him to wre anythg, anythg at all about hikg through Appalachia as a gay male, and he gave me this awome rponse:. Would be amplified sce I likely wouldn’t have many, if any, gay people to relate to.
Yet beg gay is somethg that is a part of my inty and was the approach which I felt the most fortable.
If anythg, a few hikers were astonished, yet supportive, that a young gay man was out here … the middle of nowhere, dirty and smelly, hikg om Geia to Mae.
GAY HCHHIKER
However, I’m unsure if I broke anyone’s perceived stereotyp about gay men. But beg gay, I’m always asked about my experienc of romance or hookups. Beg a gay th hiker never put a damper on my hikg experience.
