Gays in the Mist: A Straight Guide for Navigating Gay
By Sebastien Straightish
A satirical twist on Gorillas in the Mist, this field guide follows one thoroughly confused straight person's accidental immersion into gay life-where brunch is sacred, emotions are broadcast, and nothing makes sense through a heterosexual lens.
Straight people are often mystified by anything outside the borders of straightness. Gay culture-with its emotional karaoke, weaponized group chats, and wardrobe critiques disguised as compliments-is an entire ecosystem that feels like performance art to the average straight observer. Enter Sebastien Straightish: a reluctant cultural refugee who just needed a sublet... and ended up with four drag queen roommates, a rotating schedule of Pride duties, and a deeply unsettling amount of skincare knowledge.
In fifteen brutally honest chapters (plus ten cultural deep dives), Gays in the Mist: A Straight Guide for Navigating Gay exposes the glittering absurdities, emotional landmines, and deeply human moments at the heart of gay life. From Grindr fiascos and brunch trauma to karaoke breakdowns and unsolicited soul awakenings, this isn't a love letter-it's a field report.
Warning: May cause uninvited self-awareness, mild emotional growth, and a permanent inability to use the word "slay" unironically.
