    Let's start this by saying that 45 minutes is certainly not enough to touch on the plethora of problems that homophobia causes in our society; however, Brittany and Areyonna have certainly done a great job at highlighting some major touchpoints. Why is our society so hung up on sexuality? Within our homonormative society, it is easy to see that anyone that lives outside of those norms is subject to bullying and, in some cases, perpetual disrespect. Press play and jump in on this conversation!

    We need to have a real conversation: teach children the anatomical names of their body. In this episode, Areyonna and Brittany explain how empowering children to know their bodies helps with boundary setting and strengthens confidence when it comes to consent. We get started with what exactly consent means with a definition from R.A.I.N [00:36]. The conversation continues to explore consent with hugs and kisses, especially as it relates to to family members [02:36].  HBO's Euphoria even has a moment in this conversation [11:30] that leads to a very interesting theory from Brittany as to why there are so many male genitalia on display within the show [13:07]. As our hosts recall their examples of affection,  sex education, and relationships while growing [20:21], they emphasize the importance of having positive relationship modeling.
