  • GĂ©nial !

    Enfin un Podcast sur l’asexualité !!!

    Après avoir fait mes coming-in non-binaire, aromantique et asexuel, je cherchais un Podcast pour mieux me comprendre et répondre à plein de questionnements me venant dans une société hypersexualisée.

    Merci pour ce Podcast qui me permet de déculpabiliser et de me sentir légitime par rapport à mon orientation sexuelle.
