Male Gaze and Female Objectification in Contemporary Cinema

Gay Men & Objectification: Most people think thirst traps mean you’re superficial or desperate. But as a gay men’s therapist, I see something deeper: self-objectification is often a defense. It can give you power, protect you from judgment, or distract others from your insecurities. The key isn’t to stop—it’s to do it consciously. Ask yourself: What am I inviting? What am I hiding? And is this the kind of attention I actually want? #gaytherapist #gaymen #gaydating | Michael Pezzullo, LMFT
