For men who are both gay and Latino, experiences are often shaped by masculine cultural ideologies, respect for family, and/or being a “multiple minority”—racially/ethnically and sexually. These ideologies are related to machismo, the hyper‐masculine idealization of men in Latino communities. Few studies seek to explore gay Latino men's communication about identity. The purpose of this basic qualitative study was to explore the exemplary knowledge of gay Latino men regarding their transformation in navigating machismo while coming out and communicating about their sexual orientation. The examination of their exemplary knowledge after completing a communication course at a non‐profit revealed behavioral, convictional, and psychological transformations, as they learned to communicate across difference, depersonalize contrary beliefs, set boundaries, and construct healthy co‐existing identities.

驾着大男子主义：三名拉美裔同性恋男子的模范知识和变革性学习

对于既是男同性恋又是拉丁裔的男人，经验往往是由男性的文化意识形态，对家庭的尊重和/或在种族/种族上和性方面成为“多个少数群体”来塑造的。这些意识形态与大男子主义有关，大男子主义是拉丁裔社区中男性的高度男性化理想。很少有研究试图探索同性恋拉美裔男性关于身份的交流。这项基本的定性研究的目的是探索同性恋拉美裔男子在航行大男子主义中的转型方面的典范知识。同时出来谈论他们的性取向。在非营利组织完成交流课程后，对他们的榜样知识的检查显示出行为，信念和心理上的转变，因为他们学会了跨差异交流，消除对立信念的个性化，设定界限并构建健康的并存身份。
