  • They without them

    The bigotry and ignorance is so carefully woven that it’s easy to miss. Something isn’t right here; almost seems like a phobic group created to sow discourse and divide the community.

  • Not for me

    Surface level, privileged, misguided, chronically online discussions that tend to exclude the perspectives of the most marginalized groups of the queer community. That phenomenon where you’re so left wing that you unknowingly circle back to discrimination and the same talking points used by the people who take our rights away. The things they’ve said about lesbians on this podcast are absolutely horrifying. The hosts exemplify everything wrong with modern online queer discourse. They should not ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Dating Wasn’t Built for Neurodivergent People
Q: What practical tools or practices help manage sensory overload and emotional regulation on dates or in bed?
Plan dates with lower sensory load, use nonverbal consent methods (AAC, five-finger scaling), practice DBT/CBT techniques for emotion regulation, and maintain open dialogue about needs and boundaries before, during, and after interactions.
Dating Wasn’t Built for Neurodivergent People
Q: How can listeners navigate flirting and early dating when vibes-based advice isn't helpful for neurodivergent brains?
Direct communication and explicit cues work better for ADHD and autistic individuals; using tools like structured dating apps (Field), clear boundaries, and pre-agreed signals can reduce anxiety and improve consent and enjoyment.
Lesbians and Bisexual Women Don’t Trust Each Other
Q: How did you address biphobia or stigma from the community?
We acknowledged internalized biphobia, educated ourselves, and leaned into supportive communities, which helped us feel seen and validated rather than judged.
Lesbians and Bisexual Women Don’t Trust Each Other
Q: What practical steps helped you navigate fears of abandonment and insecurity in a mixed-orientation relationship?
Honest conversations, setting boundaries, and making space for each person to express their insecurities without pressuring the other to solve them. Over time, open communication reduced anxiety and built trust.
The Gender Mystery Historians Still Can’t Explain
Q: Do you think that Jo is an example of someone who today would have been non-binary or was Jo just a dissident woman who challenged the boundaries of what was socially acceptable for women of her time?
It's tough to say, but Jo's actions and appearance suggest a blend of non-conformity that resonates with non-binary identities today.
