Summary
This week on Let’s Pick This Up Next Week, Dee and Dr. DJ dive into the topic of nonbinary erasure, sparked by recent comments from the new administration declaring the existence of only two genders. They unpack the harmful impact of this rhetoric on nonbinary individuals and the broader LGBTQ+ community and discuss why language matters in shaping societal attitudes. The duo breaks down how sex is assigned, and why something as simple as flying can be cumbersome for nonbinary people who are required to fit into a two-gender system. Tune in for an insightful and empowering conversation about why representation is needed, and how to cope with the stress if you are feeling overwhelmed by current politics.
