We’re catching up on all things Pride, from Philly to DC! Join us June 6–7 as we host Havana Nights with TASTE Takeover, celebrate queer Latina joy, and ride the DC Pride float to see Cynthia Erivo headlining!

Then we dig into the hot topic: What does it mean to “make being gay your personality”? We unpack why it’s celebrated, why it’s judged, and why authenticity is what really matters.

And in this week’s Family Meeting: What if you’re ready to travel the world but your partner isn’t moving with you (literally or financially)? Is that a deal breaker?

🎧 Note: We’re now an audio-only podcast going forward!

We dive into our weekend celebration for Lilly's birthday (who's been on the podcast twice!) We then quickly chat about the encounter at Boston’s Liberty Hotel where a cisgender woman was asked to prove her gender in a bathroom, shedding light on the ongoing challenges of gender identity and public perception.

We also dive into the evolving concept of lavender marriages which was once used to hide LGBTQ+ identities and now transforming into modern mixed-orientation relationships. From Hollywood cover-ups to genuine soul connections like Samantha and Jacob’s, we explore why more people are embracing unconventional partnerships, the shifting meaning of gender in relationships, and how love is being redefined beyond labels.

& YES, WE ARE STILL GOING TO BALI & THAILAND!! Check the link below for more info.

Family Meeting: "I’ve been with my girl for 3 years. It’s been an awesome 3 years. The issue is that she wants to live outside the US for a few years and I don’t see that for me."

QUESTIONS TO ASK SOMEONE AT THE START OF A RELATIONSHIP

• What counts as cheating?
• Are there certain things we mutually agree to NOT tell eachother? What if an ex texts me? What if my friend doesn’t like you? Do you wanna know or should I handle it privately?
• Are there things in our relationship that are just for us, is it okay if I share everything with my therapist, family or friends? Where is the line for privacy?
• Do you need to know if I have hooked up or dated any of my friends? Would you feel weird or upset with meeting someone I had a past with?
• How do we feel about staying in touch with an ex partner?
• How do you feel about me being close with the gender or genders I'm attracted to? Does it bother you, do you want to meet them?

FAMILY MEETING

“I’ve been in a 1.5-year relationship, and recently, my partner has been hanging out with her guy friends more often. When I mention it, she says I’m being controlling. She works part-time and has a lot of free time, while I work full-time and take care of the house and pets in my free time. Am I wrong for wanting her to help with the home and pets before hanging out?”
