Episode 25: (rebroadcast) gender feelings with chahney young hinds

[Originally aired June 22, 2020] Hey loves! After a pause to listen and redirect focus in our community to BLM activism, I’m back with a new episode (and no, our anti-racist activism is not going anywhere, I promise) with the magical, multi-dimensional being that is Chahney Young Hinds.

In this episode you’ll hear: the difference between gender and sex, ways to talk to folks about your pronouns, the way that Chahney asked me to share my gender that made me cry (in the best way), why I use she/her and they/them pronouns and don’t talk about it that much, and more! Chahney and I also talked a ton about our fave gender-expansive and gender-affirming movies, books, and resources, so get all the good links in the show notes on the episode page below! This was one convo I know my heart needed and it’s epic. Come listen. Love, Eliza.

Love, Eliza.
