Fathernetics

Growing Up on Fire Island w/ Gay Dads ft. Ethan Levy


Listen Later

In this episode of Fathernetics, we sit down with Ethan Levy — whose life story captured national attention when his adoption by LGBTQ parents made the New York Times. Raised between the iconic shores of Fire Island and the vibrant streets of Chelsea, Ethan offers a candid look into what it means to grow up embraced by queer culture and family values.

Ethan opens up about identity, belonging, and the power of safe spaces for LGBTQ youth. He reflects on the unique challenges and joys of being part of a famously public adoption story and shares why he’s committed to fostering deeper conversations and connections within the queer community today.

This is more than a personal history, it’s an invitation to rethink what family looks like and how we create inclusive spaces for the next generation.
