"My friend came out to me and I have no idea what they actually said! What is "genderf*ck"?? Why do we need the term "birthing person"? Why does my queer friend keep complaining about 'TERF's? My friend said she's genderfluid but NOT genderqueer? Help!"

If any of that sounds like you, this might be the podcast for you. We're going to break down what some of the most common transgender-related terms actually mean!

That's not to say this episode isn't for you if you're already an expert on queer terminology... because we're ALSO going to explain the history of these words: where they came from, who coined them, why they're used, why there's pushback, and why they're important!!

In this episode, we'll go over 14 of the 27 terms Chloe researched, including: "cis," cisgender, transgender, AMAB, AFAB, TERF, Gender-Critical, FART (no, really), Birthing Person, Pregnant Person, Chestfeeding, Non-Binary, Genderfluid, Genderqueer, Gender non-conforming, & Genderf*ck.
