    Episode 15: Queering History

    Doing history can be tough, especially when it comes to addressing LGBTQIA+ topics! In this episode, we talk about some of the challenges we face, how we overcome them, and how our perspectives can color our view of history. Also we have a spirited discussion on technical jargon, and why we hate it with a passion!

    Episode 14: Gender and Communication

    In this episode we talk about how gender influences the way people speak and communicate. We start with a study on the differences between men and women using signed languages like ASL, then talk about a few studies examining the differences in word choice between cis-men and cis-women, and end with an article on trans men and what people perceive as “gay sounding” speech in men.

    We’ve had two episodes about gay animals, now it’s time for an episode about animals that have more than two genders.

    Episode 11: Charlie Parkhurst

    "One-Eyed" Charlie Parkhurst was a stagecoach driver and (probably) a trans man who led an awesome, cool life in the early days of California's statehood. Locally famous during his life, and then nationally afterwards, Charley's story is one very familiar to many: moving out to California and living your best life as your true self.

    Episode 10: The Intermediate Sex by Edward Carpenter

    This episode discusses Edward Carpenter and his book The Intermediate Sex: A Study of Some Transitional Types of Men and Women. Edward Carpenter was a pretty cool guy overall, although (as you’ll learn) not quite as progressive as Alyssa first thought when she found this book.
