Summary
🎙️ But I’m a Lesbian Two lesbians. Two mics. Endless hot takes. This week on But I’m a Lesbian, we’re talking Pariah, a 2011 coming-of-age story that will absolutely sit with you long after the credits roll. We talk about Alike’s journey navigating identity, family, and first love, and why this film feels so real to us as former closeted high schoolers. We get into all the standout moments, the emotional damage, and how the creator, Dee Rees, crafted something so intimate and honest it almost feels like you’re eavesdropping on someone’s life. Plus, we share our munch, merge, murder choices, favorite scenes, and of course, ask the important (but super sad) question: why are some people so cruel to their own kids? It’s tender, it’s messy, it’s very WLW. Come laugh and cry with us! 📲 New episodes weekly. See you next Tuesday!
