How do gay men develop true sexual confidence? The answer might surprise you. It doesn’t start in the bedroom—it starts with self-knowledge.


That’s why I’ve created this free 3-part course for gay men, designed to help you explore your past, understand your present, and imagine your sexual future with clarity and confidence.


Here’s what you’ll learn in the series:

  • Part 1: Exploring Your Sexual History – Reflect on your early attractions, sexual development, and first experiences to understand the foundation of your sexual identity.

  • Part 2: Understanding Your Arousal Template – Take a look at your present-day sexual patterns, desires, and turn-ons to uncover what truly excites you.

  • Part 3: Defining Your Sexual Future – Imagine your ideal sexual self, free from shame and full of possibility, to guide your growth moving forward.


Today, we’ll begin with Part 1: Exploring Your Sexual History.


Why Your Sexual History Matters

For many gay men, sexuality was shaped under secrecy, shame, or confusion. Without positive role models, many of us were left to piece things together on our own. By reflecting on your past, you gain insight into how those early experiences still influence your confidence today.


This isn’t about judgment—it’s about curiosity and compassion. When you understand your story, you can start rewriting the parts that no longer serve you.


The Goal: Awareness

These reflections aren’t about “fixing” anything. They’re about awareness. When you understand where you’ve come from, you have a clearer sense of why you make the choices you do today—and how you might want to grow.


Sexual confidence doesn’t appear overnight. It’s built through self-acceptance, compassion, and practice. By taking the time to explore your past, you create the foundation for healthier and more fulfilling connections in the present. Did you connect sex with romance, or keep them separate?


A Free Course for Gay Men

This is just the beginning. In the next part of the course, we’ll move into the present and explore your arousal template—the unique blueprint of what turns you on. From there, we’ll finish with a look toward your ideal sexual future.


To help you get started, I’ve created a free downloadable PDF worksheet with all these prompts and space to write your reflections. Think of it as your guided journal for this journey.
