You Can’t Ask That: The Trans Experience Unifltered with Lana McBackwards


Listen Later

I'm joined by Lana McBackwards for a hilarious and unfiltered conversation about the trans experience.

We cover everything from discovering her identity during the pandemic and dating apps as a trans woman, to dealing with clueless questions and bad dick pics. Lana shares what being a woman means to her, how she uses humour as advocacy, and why the conversations people are scared to have are often the most important.

If you've ever wondered what it's really like to transition, date, and thrive as a trans woman — or you just want a laugh-out-loud chat about pockets, puberty blockers, and Grindr chaos — this is the episode for you.
