    Is monogamy a realistic expectation in gay relationships, or is it a relic of outdated norms? On this episode of Fully Grown Homos, we share raw and honest insights into the challenges of maintaining monogamous relationships in the gay community. Dave opens up about his struggles with fidelity and the complications that arose from trying open relationships. Matt offers a different perspective, discussing the considerable effort required to uphold monogamy and the temptation to disconnect from the broader community to make it work. Together, we explore if exclusivity is truly a feasible goal or if it's time to redefine relationship boundaries.

    We don't shy away from controversial topics, either. This episode takes a deep dive into the often-ignored subject of sex work, especially in relationships involving asexual partners. We underline the necessity of transparent communication to satisfy unmet sexual needs and the importance of getting to know a partner thoroughly before taking the plunge. We also touch on the joys and challenges of self-love and independence, and how parenting affects intimacy and sexual dynamics within relationships.

    Moreover, we tackle the complex world of long-distance and military relationships, emphasizing the critical need for personal space and clear timeframes to manage physical separation. We share personal stories about the strain distance puts on relationships and discuss the dynamics of casual and open relationships versus traditional commitments. The episode also highlights the importance of identifying and leaving toxic relationships, and we round out the discussion by challenging stereotypes in age-gap relationships, demonstrating that genuine love can transcend age differences. Tune in for a heartfelt and candid exploration of what it means to navigate relationships in the gay community today.
