25. Gender Norms

Angela and Moss talk about gender norms! They're in media, they're embedded in cultural structures and histories, and they're definitely in our relationships. They've especially been on Moss' mind ever since they started talking about "cis core" home goods and fashion online and got flooded with responses about people's varied experiences of gender and consumerism. What does it feel like to try and notice, acknowledge, and untangle gender norms as a trans person? It's a topic that's definitely bigger than one episode can cover, but the hosts give it a try!

Content warning: this episode includes some references to/discussions of institutional racism, intimate partner violence, gender dysphoria, and suicidal ideation.
