  • Good Info, but VERY Cis-Het

    I have listened to several episodes, and have learned something new almost every time. Dr Wattles asks thoughtful questions, and the guests have lots of good info to share. The only problem I have is that Dr Wattles and her guests forget that straight people are not the only folks who care about their fertility. Some LQBTQIA+ inclusion would be much appreciated.
