Sexual confidence doesn’t come from “performing better” or chasing some idea of perfection—it comes from understanding yourself. In Part 1 of this series, we looked at how your sexual history shaped you. Now, in Part 2, we’re turning to gay men's arousal templates: the unique set of physical, emotional, and relational factors that turn you on.
For many gay men, arousal is both simple and complex. You might know exactly what excites you, while at the same time feeling confused or even conflicted about certain desires. That’s completely normal. Exploring your template is about curiosity, not judgment.
To guide you, I’ve created a free downloadable worksheet. I share it with readers who receive my reflections on connection, dating, and emotional patterns in gay men.
