    Noel Niks on Music, Masculinity, Dating & Living Authentically | Part 2

    In Part 2 of our conversation with Noel Niks, we get deeper into masculinity, femininity, gender expression, dating, sex, music and what it means to fully embrace who you are. Noel opens up about identifying as a “tomgirl” and being able to move between masculine and feminine expression. We get into why femininity in men is still so heavily policed, masc for masc culture, “no fats, no fems,” and why some feminine gay men can find themselves desired privately but rejected publicly. The conversation also gets into Noel’s dating life, refusing to hide parts of himself for a relationship, his dating standards, sex, open relationships, being friends with an ex and knowing when someone simply isn’t your person. Plus, Micah and Noel talk Saucy Santana, Lil Nas X, colorism and marketability in the music industry, supporting Black queer artists, and what’s next for Noel’s music, Noel TV and his upcoming podcast.
