Summary
On a new TAGS LIVE aka Talk About Gay Sex podcast Host Steve V and Co-hosts Jeremy Ross Lopez and Kodi Maurice Doggette are back with a brand new Sex Talk. Today we're talking about beauty, obsession, and the lengths people go to be desired. A disturbing trend online called looksmaxxing has young men literally hitting their faces with hammers to reshape their bone structure in hopes of becoming more attractive. Meanwhile, the new FX show The Beauty imagines a virus that makes people physically perfect… but kills them. Which raises an uncomfortable question for us as gay men: In a community that celebrates beauty, youth, and perfection… how far are we willing to go to feel desirable? And what happens when aging inevitably enters the chat? Plus we've got all of your Hot Topics!
