When I Started Dating Men Ryan Trout

About This Show

Coming out doesn’t fix your problems – it fucks them, and then never calls back. In WHEN I STARTED DATING MEN, it’s Bushwick, it’s Alex’s kitchen, and he’s being, like, a total terror. As the tequila turns to weed, and the memories get hazier, six people see that dealing with your problems is an entirely different pain in the peach.
