He has appeared on television and radio programs, was a featured guest on the Tyra Banks Show and Montel Williams talk shows on the topic of mixed-orientation marriages; "These men genuinely love their wives," another New York Times article quoted him as saying. "They fall in love with their wives, they have children, they're on a chemical, romantic high. Then after about seven years, the high falls away and their gay identity starts emerging." Kort was also a guest on Oprah and Friends Radio "Better in Bed" with Dr. Laura Berman, discussing straight men who have sex with men.
He is an outspoken advocate for men who have sex with men (MSM), particularly heterosexual men who engage in sexual behavior with other men and are not gay or bisexual. The popular term, "on the Down Low" specifically addressed African-American males secretly engaging in sexual behavior with other men. Kort has expanded the awareness of the Down Low to apply beyond men of color and writes about this sexual behavior crossing all ethnicities, religions, socio-economic as well as races.
His website, Straight Guise (www.StraightGuise.com) is addressed to the men and women who are involved with them. Since 2009, he has written an online advice column for 365gay.com, owned and operated by Viacom (a division of MTV and LOGO Television).

Kort has also completed his doctorate from the American Academy of Clinical Sexologists in Orlando, FL and holds a Ph.D. in clinical sexology.
