41 min - #MeToo, Befriending anxiety & Biphobia
#MeToo - remember that movement? Weinstein is finally going to jail. But this episode was recorded back in the thick of it. When the media called the movement a witch hunt and men were deemed harmless through the tried and true "boys will be boys" argument.
Befriending anxiety? What and why?
Biphobia is a very toxic strand of homophobia and erasure existing both within the straight community AND within the LGBTQIA community.
