This Cute Gay Couple Is Using TikTok to Raise More LGBTQ+ Visibility
"We're in a healthy gay relationship and that's a good thing to be seen, especially today."
Everyone, meet Sebastian Wood and Monty Keates.
The two are part of a TikTok/social media influencer collective called the Bytehouse...
...and they just so happen to be boyfriends!
@sebbbyjon Delete my video again tiktok, I dare you. However, here it is again, official @montykeates #foryou#fyp#foryoupage#soulmates#relationship
In a recent interview with the Thomson Reuters Foundation, the two opened up about how they are trying to use their platforms on TikTok (Sebastian has over 2.1 million followers and Monty has over 441,000+ followers at the time of writing) to create more representation for LGBTQ+ folks and provide some lighthearted entertainment during the current ongoing pandemic that has everyone stuck inside.
"We do make sure that we get the representation that's needed out there, we do make videos about our relationship," said Monty. "We're in a healthy gay relationship and that's a good thing to be seen, especially today."
He continued:
"It's content about things to do inside and keep you occupied and mentally healthy while self-isolating."
"I've wanted to do something like this for so long, and the fact I can do it with my friends is just insane," Sebastian said about getting to create content that many people enjoy with a group of diverse friends and his boyfriend.
