I don't perform ruals a "gay" way. Regardls of them beg gay, straight, trans, or whatever.

In the same way, you'd want a shaman's help regardls if they are gay or not. In this way, shaman guis jt don't re if you're gay or straight, their only purpose is to heal, to love, and to protect everyone, human and other spirs too.

When I perform ruals, I don't thk about whether I'm dog this as a gay or straight man, although my gay and queer inty mak up a big portn of who I am. Now, bee I am gay and many gay and queer dividuals, unfortunately, have to go through trma, challeng, and obstacl om fay and society, this giv me a perspective that perhaps many others do not have. We go through that journey of self-disvery, fdg yourself, self-love, etc, beg gay or queer jt don't mean behavg, actg, or lookg like the other genr.

Meang, gay and queer shamans reprent all spirs as part of our journey and inty. Fortunately for me, I haven't faced many challengg moments when to beg a "gay" shaman, at least not the same way as my personal life and relatnships.
