(small trigger warning! At 32:24-33:30 we discuss rape in biblical texts briefly)Happy New Year everyone! We hope you all had a pleasant, socially distant New Years Eve! Today we're talking about virginity and how the church and our parents tried to shape our ideas of sex, when we should have it, what kind of sex we should have, how often we should be having it, and HOW INCREDIBLY INAPPROPRIATE THAT IS. Why are parents and pastors so concerned with the genitals and activities of the genitals of children and teenagers? Discuss and scream with us. Intro and Outro: "Feeling Sunny" by Scott Holms Art: Emily Krieg www.emilykrieg.com Emily: @emilykriegart Dom: @hii_imdom

Happy Pride! In the wake of the Black Lives Matter protests that are still happening all over the globe, we wanted to remind our fellow queers where Pride originated. We wouldn't have Pride without the likes of Marsha P. Johnson, Sylvia Rivera, or Storme DeLarverie, women of color who dedicated their lives to fighting for equality. You cannot discuss Pride without also discussing the systemic racism that targets queer black folx, especially our trans brothers and sisters. Rest in Peace Tony McDade, Nina Pop, Dominique Fells, and Riah Milton. Intro and Outro: "Feeling Sunny" by Scott Holms Art: Emily Krieg www.emilykrieg.com Emily: @emilykriegart Dom: @hii_imdom Tenderbois Club @tenderboisclub Not Sorry Apparel @notsorryapparel Black Queer Magic @blackqueermagic A Tribe Called Queer @atribecalledqueer ILERA Apothecary @ileraapothecary Bleu Bowtique @bleubowtique

CONTENT NOTE: At the 36:34 mark to the 39:19 mark we discuss the Jewish cultural ideas on homosexuality which came from their knowledge of assault upon children within other cultures. While we touched on it to educate where homophobia stemmed from within the Jewish and Christian faiths, we acknowledge that this could be triggering. Take care of yourself and skip that part if you need to. We are Black Lives Matter advocates and we stand with the black community in these troubling racist times. If you can, please donate to the LGBTQ Freedom Fund at www.lgbtqfund.org or The Bail Project. We have posted information on our instagram about the The Bail Project and The National Lawyers Guild. Did you know that there are lesbians in the direct line to Jesus? In this episode, we discuss the story of Ruth, her relationship with Naomi, and how some biblical scholars think that these two women were more than just companions. Intro and Outro: "Feeling Sunny" by Scott Holms Art: Emily Krieg www.emilykrieg.com Emily: @emilykriegart Dom: @hii_imdom Women and Children First: @wcfbookLGBTQ Freedom Fund: @LGBTQ_Freedom

If you've ever been told that tarot cards, astrology, yoga, or crystals are demonic and evil, you might just be a product of evangelicalism. We break down these practices and why evangelicals hate them so much in an effort to shed light on the racism and control that runs unchecked behind church doors. Intro and Outro: "Feeling Sunny" by Scott Holms Art: Emily Krieg www.emilykrieg.com Emily: @emilykriegart Dom: @hii_imdom
