Unpretty

My outsides look cool
My insides are blue

FIRST VERSE:

It's Pride Month, and in celebration of all things LGBTQIA+, Marko and Tony are taking a break from their weekly #GayRelationshipGoals (it'll be back July 2nd, don't worry) to bring a month of #GayHistory.  This week, the guys dive into the pathology and history of homosexuality and all the rights (or lack thereof) that came with the judging of one's sexuality.  The guys break down the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual)'s understanding of homosexuality and how gay and lesbian people were viewed as a whole.  To make sense of where we're going, we need to better understand where we came from - and Marko and Tony try their best to make that happen, this week.  Tune in to learn more!  HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!

CHORUS:

“But if you can't look inside you
Find out who am I too
Be in the position to make me feel so
Damn unpretty”

Self-esteem and self confidence are not easy to come by.  In a world that puts so much value on looks, salary, family life, relationships, and all other things surface and (often times) empty - how does one learn to love themselves?  And, once you accomplish self-love and take a full dive into the abyss that is gay culture, where does one draw a healthy amount of self-esteem from?  This week, the Critellis chat about their relationship with self-esteem, and pass along some tips and tricks to make sure you feel good about yourself.
