Looksmaxxing Is Just Marketing (with Injector Chris and Benjamin Goldman)

09/29/26

Gay men are perhaps the most aesthetic community out there: gym routines, filler, hair plugs, veneers, BBLs, skincare, holetox, steroids, and even surgery. This episode dives into the “looksmaxing” of it all, and other trends that inform (or infect) our community.


Is everyone who gets cosmetic surgery insecure? Are you toxic for having a really strict gym regimen? How do we draw the line between affirming aesthetic body modification and unhealthy impulses informed by cultural pressure?


Answering these questions with us are two guests: nurse practitioner “Injector Chris” and therapist Benjamin Goldman.
