Sensual Self with Ev'Yan Whitney

59. Decolonize Your Gender


Listen Later

What assumptions do you make about your gender? In this one, Ev’Yan speaks to Dayna Lynn Nuckolls (The People’s Oracle) about what it looks like to decolonize gender and why we probably need to decolonize ours. They both speak about the binary and how harmful our gendered ideas of masculinity and femininity are, how language and labels flatten us, and the ways indigenous cultures have viewed gender and gender roles. Dayna also explains what it really means to decolonize something. At the end, Ev’Yan offers questions to get you curious about your own gender to help you parse through what was shaken up in this episode.
