We are two gay men looking to change what it means to be "gay." To open the door of possibility for more men to feel comfort expressing their sexuality.
WHY MYNE? by Isaiah Zamudio
I’m tired of being reduced to a sex object or whatever opposite an algorithm decided is best now. It’s like the only options left are being a glowing neon billboard for lust or a caricature of sweetness. I do not preach bashing. Simply put, look at what we wear. The pendulum swings from leather harnesses to gay llamas on fabric. Where’s the in-between? Where’s the subtext?
Once, we knew how to say everything without saying a word, just a glance or a shift in posture. Now that quiet language is gone, drowned out by commercialized noise. MYNE is the missing link, a way back to that subtle, charged communication. It’s about signaling without screaming; creating a style that works whether you’re out or somewhere quieter, with its own kind of tension. If you get it, you get it. MYNE gives gay men a choice beyond the dancefloor or the cutesy retreat, a uniform for everything in between.
MYNE is for gay men who live in the in-between. Some days, we lean feminine; others, masculine. Sometimes we want to turn heads, and sometimes we’d rather blend in. MYNE isn’t about choosing one side; it’s about embracing facets of who we are, through paraphernalia that speaks for us no matter the mood or moment. MYNE is a proposal of balance—a reminder that our identity should never be as flat as a label.
