LGBTQ+ Professions Beyond the Stereotypes
What happens when you mix a dash of humor with the fascinating world of LGBTQ+ professions? You get an episode that's as colorful as a pride parade! We start off by exploring the high-flying life of flight attendants, affectionately known as "trolley dollies." Ever wondered why this glamorous, travel-filled career seems to attract so many from the LGBTQ+ community? We chat about the allure of travel, the freedom it represents, and the neat, friendly demeanor that flight attendants are known for. Join us as we unravel the stereotypes and share a few laughs along the way.
From the sky to the ground, our conversation shifts to a diverse array of professions with notable LGBTQ+ representation. We swap stories about male nurses and their unjust stereotypes and shine a light on the nurturing roles of occupational and massage therapists. We also examine the unexpected presence of LGBTQ+ individuals in jobs like morticians and prison guards, all while adding a humorous twist to the discussion. Ever considered urban planning as a thrilling career choice? We give it a cheeky critique, acknowledging the unique traits that our community brings to various job sectors.

Speaker 1:And on today's episode, what are we going to chat about? Dave? Talking about everything about jobs, Jobs, the gayest jobs on the planet For all our LGBTQ plus community, and where they work. What kind of jobs do they have?
Speaker 2:Dave. Well, I think there's a varied selection of jobs that we've actually looked at, matt, here on the web pages. We've been crawling through all morning, yep, but look, I mean, some of them don't surprise me. Some of them.
Speaker 1:Don't surprise me, some of them do now. And this is where we're going to hit our stereotype target. Aren't we dave?
Speaker 2:we are indeed, matt, we're gonna. We're gonna myth bust these ones, but no, we're not gonna myth bust because they're factual we're gonna contribute to the stereotypes yep 100 and we're gonna really push those boundaries and we're gonna start off with the top, which I think most people would identify themselves.
Speaker 1:Okay, and we didn't even need to look at the list for this one, did we, dave? No, no. And what are we doing in November? We're going on a holiday, matthew, and what is going to be on there? Now, we're going to have a plane. We're going on a plane. We're going on a plane, yeah Right, but on the plane we're going to have air hostesses or air flight attendants, flight attendants, whatever you want to call them Trolley dollies.
Speaker 1:Flight attendants Trolley dollies Like I said All right, and out of there. Let's say we're going on a pretty big plane, right, and I think there'll probably be about a crew of about 30 people. How many gay men do you reckon are going to be on?
Speaker 2:board Out of all the gay men, all the men attendants I reckon there'll be at least four out of eight, four out of eight, so we're going to 50% ratio.
Speaker 1:Yeah, so I was going to go eight out of eight.
Speaker 2:No, no, no, there are some straight people there.
Speaker 1:Not straight flight attendants.
Speaker 2:There's no such thing, there are.
Speaker 1:Absolutely Not the men, not in my mind, they're not. I was going to say.
Speaker 2:In reality there will be some straight people. You think no one's straight anyway, I mean you know, everybody's gay.
Speaker 1:So, yeah, I can't wait because we're going to count that number and we'll get back to you on how many, exactly what our stats were. If you're a straight trolley dolly, please drop us a line. You're probably not listening. If you're a straight trolley dolly.
Speaker 2:If you're a gay trolley dolly, and also the female flight attendants. They may be straight but they're very queer.
Speaker 1:They're all allies, of course they are, and they're always so fucking glamorous. What makes a flight attendant gay he was born that way queer? They're all allies, of course they are, and they're always so fucking glamorous.
Speaker 2:What makes a flight attendant gay? Gay, he was born that way, dave. No, but what I mean in terms of the job aspect, what? What do you say?
Speaker 1:attractive. It's an attractive um job for somebody that I guess potentially isn't going to settle down in one city. Um, like if I had my youth all over again. I'd love to do that. I think it would be great. Are you saying they're all young, free and full of cum? Well, not full of cum yet, just accumulating on their journeys. But yeah, but I know some of my friends. I think one of my friends that sort of she'd love to have been a travel guru because she travels everywhere. So if she had got into the airlines early and stuff like that, I would imagine she'd like to do that.
Speaker 2:But yeah, it's like a lifestyle of fun. She would have been great actually as a trolley dolly.
Speaker 1:She would have been so much fun.
Speaker 2:Well, they have fun, don't they? They seem to be very at ease with people. I think they put people at ease and I know that's part of the job aspect, definitely. I mean, you can definitely tell the ones are definitely out there.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, from the stereotypical mannerisms and the way they present themselves, and maybe even I like the ones that are really the guys and the girls that have the real fun with the safety videos. You've seen them all over the YouTube tubes and the TikToks and the Tiki Tokis and the YouTubes and the Instagrams and all that kind of stuff. You've seen all the fun ones that really get the um to go viral and all that stuff and have a lot of fun with it. Um.
Speaker 2:So yeah, I think, um definitely trolley dollies or flight attendants if you must, so you're if you were judging a flight attendant, matt, what would be the best qualities that you'd see in a gay?
Speaker 1:flight attendant Keep bringing me snacks.
Speaker 2:Would you look at them as a really buff-looking man with big muscles.
Speaker 1:Well, you know, I like muscles anyway, I do like muscles. I like them a bit rough, and most flight attendants are a little bit too neat for me. Yep, they're all neat and tidy and always really well-presented, which is great.
Speaker 2:So what you're telling me? You like the ones with the shirts hanging out the back and the ties half undone.
Speaker 1:No, no, no no, but I do like a muscle man, I like a fit muscle man, I like them rough.
Speaker 2:So you want basically their shirts to be sort of like Popping, popping. Yeah, yeah, those top buttons to man chesticles.
Speaker 1:yeah, they have to be bulging out, definitely, definitely Not the only thing that's bulging out, and a big bulge in their pants as well. When they come over and they say can I get you anything else, sir? And I go, I'll have some of that, thank you, and they go. All right, meet me at the front of the stand. Extra nuts to my tray, please, and by my tray I mean my chin, so I can put your cock in my mouth. We digress as usual. Alright, what other kind of? What other kind of?
Speaker 1:ok, the next one after this that I can't believe are actually associated with our community.
Speaker 1:Look, I mean another one that is quite high on the top of the list is psychologists psychologists, and I guess that kind of makes sense, because we're a little bit mental and to be a psychologist you have to be a little bit mental, oh for sure. Um, and, and I know we all, like I know myself, I can speak for myself and I'll speak on behalf of you we all have our mental issues, um, um. So we've all sort of been through our own different stages, and when I say mental issues, I mean mental health issues, sorry, not just being mental spastic I don't think I'm allowed to say that word, but I just did. Oops, sorry, not meant to offend anyone at all, hopefully. But I have gone through my own mental health issues and it would make sense that psychologists are part of our community because they've faced a lot of adversity. Well, absolutely.
Speaker 2:They're speaking from self-awareness, I suppose.
Speaker 1:Yeah, and they have a lot of empathy for different parts of the community and also for just people in general.
Speaker 2:That also links on to social workers as well, which is on the list as well, because I think anybody working in those sort of environments that are involved with people on a daily yeah, exactly, and they need to understand and know how people's minds are working but to offer the best support, I mean, they're definitely in the right environment for that you know 100, 100, but% 100%.
Speaker 1:But yeah, I think social work, psychology, any of those help adjacent industries.
Speaker 2:And we're very grateful for them.
Speaker 1:Yeah, definitely, absolutely, definitely.
Speaker 2:You know, I think, male nurses yeah male nurses, again, not all male nurses, I know a few straight male nurses.
Speaker 1:I know a couple of straight.
Speaker 2:Even though I say everybody's gay you know, yeah, I know Dave.
Speaker 1:Everyone if you've heard the podcast, dave thinks that every single man is gay Until proven.
Speaker 1:Straight Until proven straight and I'll prove that right, and he's proven that right by multiple straight men that he has had particular fun with over the years. All is um, all named steve, um, that's another topic of conversation. If your name's steve and he hasn't had you yet, be careful, he will. Um but yeah, um, um, but yeah, he's um, yeah. So I think nurses is is another, fairly, but there's also a lot of lesbians in the nursing industry as well, so um, and I think it's because this is this is this is covering gay and lesbian.
Speaker 2:Yeah, gay and lesbian.
Speaker 1:But they can lift really heavy stuff, lesbians, so they've got to be there to balance that.
Speaker 2:Do you reckon that? Going back to the flight attendants, do you think there'd be many lesbians? I don't think there would be. I think they're more straight women, aren't they? Yeah, more straight women.
Speaker 1:Fag hacks, you know? Yeah, I don't know that I've ever seen a lesbian flight attendant. No, I don't think.
Speaker 2:I have actually, or not, one I've identified as one I don't know If you are one. Let us know, because I'd like to know your take on it and how you find it.
Speaker 1:Are you a lesbian flight attendant? Is there any benefits to your job? Because, no doubt, with a gay flight attendant, you've got to be getting BJs while mid-air all the time. Absolutely, I would at least give it hand jobs under the blankets and stuff like that. Yeah, um, yeah, so okay, all right, what's our next job, dave?
Speaker 2:uh, next one is occupational therapist.
Speaker 1:Again, you know it's a therapy, it's a helping people kind of thing.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so that relates to nursing and stuff, so it's kind of like a masseuse at times yeah, well, that's on the list as well. Massage therapist massage therapist, which is, yeah, I would love to be, you know, I love massaging.
Speaker 1:I love massaging. And look, yes, I will give you a happy ending, as we've spoken about on previous EPS.
Speaker 2:That's part of the massage, so you've got to go with it. We've also got urban and regional planners. I mean, I don't know much about those jobs, but that sounds boring. It sounds way too planners. I mean, I don't know much about those jobs, but that sounds boring. It sounds the way it's important, I suppose. Yeah, it's important to the people in doing their job, I suppose.
Speaker 1:But hey, don't know how we made it to the top of those lists like it's a we're not. We're more exciting as a community than to being planning a bloody city, or I guess. Yeah, we can make it look pretty, I guess. So it's kind of like, as long as we dress it up like I'd I don't know what city I'd like to, I'm guessing that the person that designed canberra wasn't a lgbtq community, because it's all very circular and boring and fucking such a shithole. Um, excuse me for anyone that lives in canberra. Don't mean to offend you either. Um, but here I go. It's gonna be one of those episodes where I offend a few people, dave, I think, but yeah so we've also got on here um secondary, also post-secondary teachers, as in university type teachers.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, that might lecturers. I mean, you know, gay old men, you know, I mean they're just like enjoying talking. Oh, a lot, of a lot of university lecturers are older people now, yeah, and again, I mean, you know, you do tend to find that they are, um, I'm getting very sorry dave stone's getting handsy.
Speaker 1:He's about to fucking bang, so I'm using my hands to describe, you know he's italian.
Speaker 2:Yeah again, um, yeah. So basically, um, I do believe that a lot of the university lecturers are definitely of that age bracket, yep, and again, I think there's a few lesbians in that, oh, yeah.
Speaker 1:But there's some really and again so part of our community are really smart. There's some really intelligent people and they haven't got children Like once you're a lesbian. If you get to a certain age you don't have, and if you haven't had the children your brains haven't disappeared into baby brain. So they're actually really smart, really really clever. They've studied a lot because, again, they don't have distracting horrible children. I love children. They school with a side of fries. But lesbians are quite intelligent and yeah, so I guess that makes sense that they're actually university lecturers being very clever and very knowledgeable in their fields.
Speaker 2:Yep.
Speaker 1:Then we've got other things, such as morticians, undertakers and funeral directors yeah, yep, yeah again, there's that whole empathy piece that you feel a lot. Um, we've got a friend of ours that's sort of in that field.
Speaker 2:Yep, as well um, he loves it, doesn't? He loves his work, does, really enjoys it. So and then you've got probation officers, correctional treatment specialists.
Speaker 1:Well see this is the thing. Prison guards, yeah, probate Prison guards. There's lots of lesbians in there, lots of lesbians on prison guard work. Lots of gay guys too, yeah, but I mean the girls love it, don't they Apparently?
Speaker 2:that's against the law. Do you reckon it's a power thing?
Speaker 1:No, it's a. Yeah, definitely, you know, like a submissive power still got control over you as I say Dom-top, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, they're all dom-tops. Yeah, I do think that is a correlation though, don't you? 100%, 100%. So I think I wouldn't mind being a prison guard, but again, I'd want to only look after the hot prisoners and the ones that weren't going to kill me if we did make out, and I'd probably want lose my job for that, um, but I probably would lose my job for it.
Speaker 1:Definitely I'd end up getting caught with some guy in the showers, you'd be in jail yourself. I get caught with some guy in the showers.
Speaker 2:100 and then you'd be locked up with them. I'll be locked up with them forever, and then your dream job will be the fuck, yes, prisoner.
Speaker 1:Free sex, free food, free rent, free, everything. Um, I wonder if I'm allowed to take my babies with me. Um, but, yeah, but yeah, it, yeah.
Speaker 2:Then we go on to things such as computer and the information systems and managers Again geeky.
Speaker 1:Yeah, geeky Again. One of my exes was a nerd and he did the whole IT thing and yeah, so I can see that being attractive for the intelligent types of queers and we've got on here.
Speaker 2:We've also got lawyers, judges, magistrates and other judicial workers, yeah, and that makes sense, doesn't it? You know? Again, is it a power thing, is it? Um, you know, do they like being dominant in their field of work? And it's possibly, you know, possibly, very well, be so, all right, but we've also got artists?
Speaker 1:you haven't. You know, I was just going to say you haven't mentioned the art yet. So theater performers like television. Now, I think you've read it these are in no sort of order.
Speaker 2:These are just like the list has been put up in front of me, but you read a stat before of something like 12% or something like that of actors.
Speaker 1:It was like 12% or 13% of actors are gay, so the percentage of 12.3 percent of all actors.
Speaker 2:Stroke theater producers.
Speaker 1:Clearly, as more and more come out, that percentage will go up, because you've got, like that's that 12 and 13 isn't counting, like your huge acmans or your um or even though they legally haven't come out.
Speaker 1:But you know, they legally haven't come out, but we know we we haven't counted them in that percent well, we hope they are anyway we know, know, we know you're all gay, everyone's gay, especially in the theatre world, theatre, theatre. I've got friends when I used to do my own amateur theatre stuff and that people swore they weren't. But all of a sudden after a few drinks they'd be giving you a cuddle and a little squeeze here and there and you go, yeah, you're definitely not gay. But then you find out years later, oh, they were after all. And you go, okay, yeah, I thought so, but yeah, I thought so. By the way, you grabbed my dick, but yeah, I was only acting.
Speaker 2:I was acting.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I was studying, Studying your craft. You're my understudy literally. Yeah, studying underneath your clothes, but it's about it, but yeah, um. So you've got the theater, you've got television, you've got the music industry, you've got the writing industry, as well any any of the arts is generally artists yeah, chocolate's full of our people which we love, we love, we love, we love.
Speaker 2:Um web developers we've got that's again bar stuff, yeah, one Bar staff, yeah, night club staff Baristas is another tough one.
Speaker 1:Baristas? Definitely there's a lot of gay baristas out there. Not many. There's a few lesbian ones. Hospitality Hospitality is definitely sort of attractive because of the hours that it actually works and stuff like that, I guess.
Speaker 2:So what do you think is the main conception of, not conception, the consensus between all the jobs we've named? What do you think is the common denominator regarding the job type? Are you confused what I'm asking here? A hundred percent right. So basically, I'm just saying to you the common denominator with all the type of jobs there is they all work around multiple people they all have people yeah, yeah, what I'm saying is they tend to work around people in masses rather than individual.
Speaker 2:So if you're working individually or you're working with a small group of people, the chances are you're not going to be in a gay, straight, lesbian related job aspect. I'm not saying that what we've said so far all people are gay and lesbian, but it's predominantly the jobs yeah, the jobs which are listed as the highest Hang on retail Retail yeah, obviously. But again it's surrounded by people. On a daily basis You're talking with masses of people, so again does that mean that the gay community love being around?
Speaker 1:people Sometimes, sometimes I fucking hate people. But yeah, for some of it, yeah, definitely, it's um, it's definitely around being around people, helping people, being part of something but yeah, now on this.
Speaker 2:So basically it says um, occupation require high levels of social perspectiveness. Task of task above average task independence is associated with this occupation. So again, like we said, people that are surrounded by multiple people are likely to be more dominating towards the lesbian and gay professions. Yep, yeah, whereas people that are high above task independence, working on their own, such as plumbers and you know, people that are having to do the job and focus on the job, are likely to be more in the masculine sort of like environment. Ie, straight, but again, everybody's open to yeah you know either job.
Speaker 1:Well, I know quite a few hot tradies.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's what I'm saying more trades are coming out. Younger, younger guys are definitely embracing their yeah themselves. You know, as um all the, all the porn I'm finding anyways yes, dave, but you're searching for that said.
Speaker 1:Well, it's coming up.
Speaker 2:Yes, so he's definitely got his ex account. Anyway, going on this, this, this, this um page, I've got here, matt, which I didn't send you the screenshot, unfortunately, that's okay. Um, it says here female to male majority occupations with the highest proportion of gay or lesbian workers, and it's got the list of the highest proportion of lesbian among the female workers, all right. And it says here psychologists so if there's more female psychologists than there are male, all right. And then it's also probation officers, correction officers there's more female-related correction officers than there is male. That makes sense. Training and development specialists and managers there's more females in that department.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:Sociologists, okay, and social and community services managers. So they're all the main lesbian female, heavily dominated, okay, whereas on the other side, the highest proportion of gay men among male workers is flight attendants, which we said bingo bongo, and one we didn't mention was hairdressers of course hairdressers and things like that.
Speaker 2:Yeah hairdressers, hairstylists and cosmetics. They seem to be heavily gay orientated, don't they? Yeah, of course they do. Then they've got the nurses, which you mentioned, and practitioners, then transportation attendance, especially, except flight attendants. So you're talking about bus drivers, train drivers, any driver any kind of oh yeah, I like to drive, um so. And then you've got the travel agents as well, but again, it's all related to that. So that's really funny. And then, on the other side of it, then we've got the male majority occupations okay, bus and truck, mechanical, diesel and specialist engines, so that that field of work tends to be more male dominated. Okay, they say male gay, no, male dominated, yeah, okay, all right. So when I say the female is predominantly females working in those environments, but there's a lot of lesbians that work, yeah, yeah, right. And then on the these, it's like male dominated, but you've also got male or gay people working in that as well. Okay, you've got elevator installers, repairers, et cetera. Heating, air conditioning, refrigeration, mechanics these are all like technical jobs, sorry jobs.
Speaker 2:Yeah, put your hands in your file Home appliance repairers and security fire alarm sisters installers and stuff like that we haven't mentioned about police or anything like, because I think the armed forces and you know, the specialist forces are a mixture, I think. I think it's like a half and half in there, yeah, and then it goes on to being gay highest gay men working anything. They've got actors, yeah, uh, news analysis reporters and correspondents, which does make sense on telling yeah, artists and related artwork yeah, yeah, we just said that.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, um, agents, managers, artists, performers and athletes as well. Yeah, that makes sense, isn't it?
Speaker 1:yeah, and then you got the producers and the directors after that as well okay, okay, yeah, so it's pretty pretty comprehensive list of so I think, in summary, we're pretty much fucking everywhere we are.
Speaker 2:But it's just really weird when going on to like the stereotypes that we say you know and we, we try and debunk all those because you know but you can't sometimes. You can't because when you look categorically at a list of all those, you do tend to find that it is a common denominator that there's a lot more gay people or lesbian people in those job professions than there are in other types.
Speaker 1:Correct so yeah sometimes stereotypes fit for a reason and they're there for a reason.
Speaker 2:So yeah, but we also did mention about caterers as well, because there's a lot of caterers in there.
Speaker 1:Dave, I think we mentioned every single industry so far, but we didn't mention about the carrots, did we? We didn't mention about the carrots, did we? We didn't mention about the carrots because we know the caters. They're just a cater for you, they are just for me and my carrot fetish, yes, carrot fetish up his anus, but yeah, so that's pretty much our Take on jobs. Take on gay jobs and gay and lesbian jobs in the gay and lesbian world.
Speaker 2:That we live in, and if you have a job that we haven't mentioned and you think it's heavily gay populated or lesbian populated, let us know.
Speaker 1:Let us know, and they can let us know on any of our socials Fully Grown Homos Podcast or email. Even Dave, how do they do that? Fullygrownhomospodcastgmailcom.
