Our friend Lauren of the Courage Coalition joins us to share her experiences on the steps of the Supreme Court at United States v. Skrmetti, a case that will determine states’ powers to ban child gender transition. As Lauren’s experience shows, this case is a flashpoint between gay activists and legacy civil rights organizations, as the latter realize they’re on the wrong side (sorry, ACLU volunteer, we know this is overwhelming). While there, she experienced appalling homophobia from the pro-child-transition camp, and some other really freaky stuff. We talk with her about that, and about the unique power we as butch women have to stand up against all of this shiz.

Also covered:

* Women wearing pants and having jobs

* Hormone seances

* Why is Gen Z so sexless?

* How we enter (women’s) bathrooms
