While Florida first passed a law limiting LGBTQ+ student rights at school in March 2022, as many as 19 other states have considered a version of the "Don't Say Gay" bill. Hear how an LGBTQ+ teen in Florida navigates the environment at school, what TV shows get right—or not—about teen LGBTQ+ relationships, and learn how some teens are not interested in romantic relationships at all.

Stories in this episode were produced by Megan from Centerville, Ohio, and Ava from San Antonio, Texas. 

This episode was produced by youth media producer Chris Schwalm and production assistant Mercedes Ezeji with help from lead podcast producer Briget Ganske.
