Our SECOND INTERVIEW with resident bad*ss Mara! Join this unlikely trio as we dive into things Matt knows nothing about: gender.

What even is gender? What does it mean to be a social construct? Gender as a performance? When we roleplay as a character, do we ACTUALLY become the gender we are playing? There are no shades of grey! There is no nuance! For nothing but black and white answers, look no further than this episode of Dungeons & Dialectics!
