About this listen

 For many closeted men in the 70s, 80s and 90s, movies were secret doorways to discovering themselves. Welcome to my gay awakening Podcast. Why were gay awakenings so revolutionary you might ask? Back in the days before LGBTQ representation was easy to find, like it is today, some movies became secret lifelines. For many closeted gay men, a shirtless hero or a tender male friendship on screen wasn’t just entertainment—it was revelation. These films weren’t marketed as “gay stories,” but they quietly unlocked feelings that had no safe place to live otherwise. In a world where silence was survival, these cinematic moments whispered truths louder than words.Eduard Odendaal-Erasmus Art
