All Inclusive

CW: Discussions surrounding sexual assault 

This week’s episode with Ellie covers a wide breadth of topics, so put on your listening ears and get ready! Brianna and Ellie discuss polyamory and how non-monogamous relationship styles can teach all of us an immense amount about communication, consent, and navigating difficult conversations with the people you love. They also talk about ways that sex education and broader understandings of consent can help prevent sexual assault and the ways that the legal and political landscape around abortion access is shifting after the overturning of Roe v. Wade. You can find resources for sexual assault survivors and education on reproductive justice at the end of the episode description.

Below you can find a glossary of jargon-y terms we might’ve said on the show.  

• Heteronormative: Relating to a world-view that promotes heterosexuality as the assumed normal or the preferred sexual orientation. 
• Monogamy: When two people decide to have sex only with each other and no one else. 
• Patriarchy: A social system in which positions of dominance and privilege are primarily held by men over women and other minoritized genders.  
• Polyamory: Having sexual or romantic relationships with more than one person at a time with the consent of all people involved. 
• Polygamy: Having more than one spouse. 
• Queer:  An umbrella term that is used to describe identities that don't fall under straight and/or cisgender. Many LGBTQ+ people use queer as a label for their sexuality or gender and some people prefer it to express that their label does not cleanly fall into other specific identities under the LGBTQ+ umbrella. Also important to note that in the past it has been used as a slur against LGBTQ+ people. However, many people have worked to reclaim the term, though, it is not universally perceived as a positive term. 
• Reproductive justice: The human right to decide when and whether to have children, as defined by SisterSong, and the right to to raise your family in a safe, healthy environment.

On today’s episode, Kenna and Brianna have Lily on the pod to discuss her Catholic faith in tandem with being pro-choice. Touching on the ways that comprehensive and inclusive sex education is actually necessitated by many Catholic teachings, she shares her experience growing up in the church as a young queer person and stresses the importance of applying a values-neutral lens to discussions around abortion justice and sex education. 

Below you can find a glossary of jargon-y terms we might’ve said on the show.  

• Values neutral: Values neutral refers to systems of education that do not assume certain shared beliefs, instead working to provide information which individuals can analyze and implement based on their own beliefs and values. This approach, in sex education, gives fact-based information and resources while encouraging students to consider and explore their values to determine how or if they will use information provided.

Three Peer Educators record a podcast episode… what happens next will warm your heart. Alums Kenna and Brianna are joined for the season two premiere by Anson, current Peer Educator and Editor-in-Chief of Peer Ed’s teen-led magazine Naked Truth! This episode is jam-packed with conversations on immigrant identity and sex education in a Vietnamese household, “hurdles” to accessing care and information, drag culture, and Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill.  

Below you can find a glossary of jargon-y terms we might’ve said on the show.  

• Ballroom culture: An LGBTQ+ subculture founded by BIPOC queer people that was very popular in major cities in the '80s. Black and Latino drag queens organized extravagant, pageant-style competitions that featured opulent outfits and voguing competitions.  
• Heteronormativity: Describes the way heterosexuality (or straightness) is presumed to be the “default.”
• HIV/AIDS: HIV attacks the body’s immune system, leading to AIDS if left untreated. In the '80s, HIV was considered an epidemic that overwhelmingly affected gay communities and was ignored by the U.S. government. While there is currently no known cure, there are treatments available for people to live with HIV, and the only way to know if you have it is to get tested. 
• Houses: In the ballroom scene, houses functioned as a found family. Often the house was led by a “house mother” who taught these younger queer people how to walk in the balls. 
• Internalized homophobia: Describes the negative effect that homophobia has on LGBTQ+ people and the way they perceive themselves and the community. 
• Marginalized identities: Those who experience social and political inequality. (i.e. non-white people, LGBTQ+ people, disabled people, etc.) 
• Values neutral: Values neutral refers to systems of education that do not assume certain shared beliefs, instead working to provide information which individuals can analyze and implement based on their own beliefs and values. 
• Voguing: A style of improvisational dance done in ballroom inspired by the poses done by fashion models.

Peer Ed-alum Gwyn hops on to discuss her undergraduate research on the way social sexualization in media affects the development of young people and interacts with their sex education experiences.

It’s the lesbian episode! Zoe joins Kenna and Brianna on the podcast to share insight into the nuances of the lesbian experience, and how it is different from that of other queer people. The pressures to perform for men even as a lesbian, the exclusion of lesbians in queer and feminist spaces, and the interesting history of gender in the community are all discussed on the final episode of this season of All Inclusive.

• Masc/Fem: Abbreviation of the adjectives masculine and feminine; often describe gender expression for people of all identities.  
• Patriarchy: A societal structure in which men hold power over women and other genders. It also works to describe structures within societies that work to oppress and exploit non-men.

[Content Warning: discussion of eating disorders and body dysmorphia] If you, like our co-hosts, are also “violently online,” then you have spent a lifetime being exposed to imagery of diet culture and disordered eating. On this week’s episode, Brianna and Kenna are joined by Alex, who shares their experience as a nonbinary person who has recovered from an eating disorder, the connection between dysphoria and dysmorphia, and the importance of implementing body positive education into modern sex ed curriculums.
