    Third Culture Adults

    English is weird. Culture is weird. Being human is weird. Especially if you are born in one country, and then are moved to a very different one as a kid. Friends Alexei & J, a Romanian-Canadian living in Korea & a South Korean that used to live in London, chat about living as Adult Third Culture Kids, a.k.a. Third Culture Adults, a.k.a. our show's official unofficial second title. Featuring: Toffee Nut Latte from Ediya in a very cute cup (also from Ediya) | ● Audio Note: There's a change in quality toward the end, at 01:31:37. Alexei's recording device stopped recording on their end so the rest of their audio was pulled from the zoom backup recording & matched with J's. If we start sounding a little like actual aliens that's why! ● Dr Ruth Hill Useem's Work Who She Was & What She Did On Her Work (General) Adult TCKs ● Online Resources & Third Culture Spaces for TCKs: Families in Global Transition Interaction International TCK Global (FB group) Third Culture Kids Everywhere (FB group) | Find us on IG | @the.coffeeshop.au Email us | hi@thecoffeeshopau.com

    Emotional Smut

    For an episode that was supposed to be about asexuality, there's so much smut & smut-adjacent discussions here. (Currently) Asexual & Bisexual Sarah and Greysexual & Pansexual J discuss: Is Fisting normal now? What are the best questions to ask when dating as an Ace person? What does sexual attraction feel like to us? Which movies/TV shows have the best representation of asexuality in queer people? (Hint: it's pretty bleak) Plus mentions of 50 Shades of Grey from an Ace perspective & v. useful info on vaginismus & vulvodynia! Featuring: Water & Hypothetical Rose Hip Tea (Nice & Warm) | ● Sarah’s pronouns are she/her. You can listen to Sarah’s first episode HERE. ● The dictionary definition of Bisexual actually is: sexually or romantically attracted to both men and women, or to more than one sex or gender. (Thanks Oxford Languages!) ● An Exhaustive Defense of Fanfiction by Sarah Z ● The meaning of Saudade will available (at some point) on our IG account :) | Find us on IG | @the.coffeeshop.au Email us | hi@thecoffeeshopau.com

    So. Many. Lesbians.

    Part 1. Actually, there are three lesbians—and one enby with sapphic potential. Friends Rae, Hyeyoung, J & Sheri discuss: common lesbian tropes from TV & RL, differences between American, Korean & Caymanian lesbians, and the importance of being BOLD as a Femme Lesbian looking to date (because it’s too easy for them to “blend into the herd”!). Also—hipsters and zoomers, please stop stealing from the lesbian uniform. Featuring: Drip Coffee combined with Vanilla Milk, Coffee made with Love & Cherry-Lime-Ade-Pre-Biotic-Drink | ● Content Notice: There are real life sounds from real life pussycats included in this recording. Also, this episode recorded in October 2024. ● ‘Mogi’: the Korean word for a mosquito. ●  J reads from: 15 Lesbian TV & Movie Tropes We’re Completely Tired of Seeing | Find us on IG | @the.coffeeshop.au Email us | hi@thecoffeeshopau.com

    OnlyFreud

    Part 2. Things get a little spicy as nonbinary friends Roya, Alexei & J continue to discuss all things gender expansive—including a hypothetical Freudian interpretation of J's phallic dream. Also: is Frida Kahlo at the center of all existing enby minds? How can we plant seeds of collective liberation for everyone (even the cis folk?) Most importantly, would an OnlyFreud account be a lucrative idea? $$$ Still Featuring: Black Sugar Toffee Nut Latte Bubble Tea (with less ice), Left-over 2L Green Tea, Coooold Barley Tea | ● This episode was recorded in August 2024. ● Books recommended:  Adam and Eve by Liviu Rebreanu  The Feminist Killjoy Handbook | Find us on IG | @the.coffeeshop.au Email us | hi@thecoffeeshopau.com

    New Nonbinary Nerds

    Part 1. Introducing: Roya & Alexei, the newest addition to J's nerdy nonbinary friend group. Between the three of them, they speak, like 7 languages (estimated), and they read a lot. And think. And write. But this episode isn't about literature; it's about they/them/theirs' experienceseses in how they've come to realize that they were neither men nor women, across time and space, and living through so many different cultures. F*ck the gender binary; drink more coffee! Featuring: Black Sugar Toffee Nut Latte Bubble Tea (with less ice), Left-over 2L Green Tea & Coooold Barley Tea | ● The audio switches back to its regular quality at 00:26:51. ● This episode was recorded in August 2024. | Find us on IG | @the_coffeeshop_au  Email us | hi@thecoffeeshopau.com

    It's G-A-H-T, not G-Y-A-T

    Did you know that GAHT, the acronym for Gender Affirming Hormone Therapy is not, in fact, pronounced in the same way as GYAT, which doesn't stand for anything and simply means a 'big butt'? Two of us older millennials didn't ); But never fear! Trans enby queers are here. Friends Embers, Mo & J discuss: going through their second puberty in their 30s & 40s, some side effects and many on-point effects of being on estrogen & testosterone, and dealing with new smells and various mouth feels. | ● Resources for Trans Femme Folx (& those who love them!): Trans Fem Science DIY HRT  F*****g Trans Women | Find us on IG | @the.coffeeshop.au Email us | hi@thecoffeeshopau.com
