Are you also a bull dyke? No? Maybe?

It's been a bit, as per our new norm. So happy you're with us. First things first, this is not a controversial episode; it's light and fun! We briefly discuss Halifax's fabulous drag event for children this past weekend and then take a deep dive into our unique, queer identities (who knew there were so many!). Listen to find out and explore for yourself!

Queerness, multifaceted.

When you see a straight presenting couple walking down the street, you assume they're straight, right? Yeah. Us too sometimes. Not cool. After discussing the importance of patience in today's restaurant scene (not at all a queeriosity), today's episode dives into heteronormative assumptions of couples and the intricacies of queer privilege therein. The energy it takes to assess personal safety before divulging one's queerness could be used in so many cooler ways. Ya feel me? Also, Cortado wore it best. Clearly. Someone obviously has better handwriting, you be the judge.

Labels, for containers or for people?

How gay are you really, though? Have you ever felt the need for an internet quiz to confirm your sexual orientation? We did :) JK, but it was interesting. Kaila is "super gay", obv, and Col is supposedly, quite confidently, pansexual. Do these fit? Sure, maybe. But is it empowering to have a label or does it limit us in the freedom to explore our intricate journey of self-discovery? Let's talk about it. Also, we say straight people might not be as straight as they think... oops?

The Future of Sports

The girls are gettin' seriousss! In today's episode, we share a continuation of Sports Part 1. Beyond the division of teams by sex and/or gender being dangerous and, at its foundation, misogynous, it is exclusionary to the max. How can we say that we work according to the rights of the child when we continue to create spaces where genderqueer, trans, nonbinary students literally do. not. have. a. space. to be included?? It's whacko. Let's talk about it. Oh, and yes, we are the change. Let's get louder about this. Plz. Thx.

Super 8, Super Not Straight

Coming to you live from the Amherst Super 8! Today we have a special gift for you all - our first guest! Sherman, one of Col's dearest besties and queer educator extraordinaire, joins us to add a rural Nova Scotian queer perspective to our chat. Some of today's queeriosities : Does pronouncing the word "gay" make you "gay"? Are eyebrow slits a gay cue? Is Kaila a "Monsieur"? Are carabiners truly queer? Also, it's tarTAR sauce. Go listen!!

Full-Court Press

Do you love our title tho? Very sportsy :) Also, why do penises have to play basketball together? Why do vulvas unite for volleyball? In today's episode, we explore the foundation of misogyny and homophobia in sport. Let's critically think about how youngins are coached, why girls have to prove themselves to be worthy of a pass in Phys. Ed. class, and why locker rooms are just the worst. Join us!! Part two to come.

Heteronormativity (pt. 2)

Apologies in advance for spending too many minutes on snacks. We were really into it. In today's slightly more scattered episode, we continue to take on all of the ways heteronormativity impacts our day to day. Why do straight people think it's okay to stare at queer couples? Great question. Let us tell you about it. Also, the trials and tribulations of being queer Costco shoppers.

Heteronormativity (pt. 1)

Ever think about the silent, pervasive pieces of our culture that inform the destructive ways we interact with one another? No? Just us then! Lol. Jk. We know you do. Let’s destabilize heteronormativity!! Let’s make the pedestal on which the straight/cis world sits a little rocky. Woop :)

Beyond Pink and Blue (pt. 2)

Part Two! Ouf - do we have a lot to say. In this episode, Kaila and Colleen share what their trail-blazing friends are doing to break gender limitations, explore the ever-frustrating clothing industry and paint a perplexing mental image of Kaila in ruby red ballet flats and a puffy shouldered blouse. It's worth it - promise. * verbal typo alert * Col says "leaded" instead of "lead". She got passionate. Forgot grammar.

Beyond Pink and Blue (pt. 1)

Welcome back! In today's episode, Kaila and Colleen get juicy about gender socialization and how, in an ideal space, we can eliminate the limiting gender boxes and gravitate freely toward authentic interests (beyond pink and blue!). Along side this significant queeriosity, Kaila shares her strong coffee game and Col throws it back to a delicious and nutritious snack from the 90s. You don't want to miss it! Yes, "pt. 1" correctly implies that this is just the beginning for this week... stay tuned this evening!!

What is gender?

In this episode, Colleen and Kaila take on quite a vast queeriosity - gender! What is it? Why are we so attached to it? And how has it been potentially limiting in our personal development? Beyond this, Col shares some personal updates, Kaila finds herself extremely validated by the support of pocket-fillers, and we found a trial jingle!! (Let us know what you think) Please enjoy!!!
