    All it took was one article about alleged conversations between President Macron and Aya Nakamura to start a national debate. It is rumoured that the singer might be performing at the 2024 Paris Olympics' opening ceremony, maybe even singing Edith Piaf and it's safe to say, a lot of people are unhappy. Now, music tastes are subjective and personal, but the discourse around this possible performance quickly turned subtly (or not) racist and misogynistic, and that's what we're diving into today. ------------------- Find the podcast: Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/juicy_conversations ⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/juicyconversations/⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/juicyconversations/⁠⁠⁠⁠ Twitter ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://twitter.com/juicyconvos1⁠⁠⁠⁠ Tiktok:  ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@juicyconversations⁠⁠⁠⁠ Youtube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@juicyconversationswithjuli3423⁠⁠⁠⁠

    In recent years, the queer community, and more specifically the trans community have been subject to dangerous, unfounded, and hateful attacks from media, governments, and the general public all across the world. In a world where the idea of a 'culture war' is being thrown around senselessly, we got together to talk about the root of the many (non) issues that are surfacing notably in the UK and US and the need for all of us, to come together, recognise that was is happening is no more than a political distraction from the very real problems our societies face as well as continue to support and fight for every queer person's right to exist, live safely, and thrive.

    We are back today and we are M.A.D. We're discussing the sentencing to prison of a woman in the UK who got an abortion beyond the legal limit, the limitations of legislation and the need for it to evolve with society, and why allyship cannot have conditions. I talked about conditional allyship in an article a few months ago (link below) when looking at the bullying Sam Smith received, and it, in many ways applies here as it raises the question: should people's existence and decisions account for the feelings of others if they don't impact those others?
