Sweet Baby Gay

This week on Sweet Baby Gay we have an interview with Allyssa from the Lesbian Passport, a queer travel blog! Abbey talks to Allyssa about how they got into travel and the tips she has for the Baby Gay travelers out there!

But first, Abbey and Reed are on to talk about several different things because their minds are everywhere! From A League of Their Own to their elopement coming up this weekend, they have a lot on their minds! 

This week on Sweet Baby Gay we are talking about Internalized Heterosexism, commonly referred to as Internalized Homophobia. Our guest this week is Jillian Abby, author of the amazing blog Queer Abby. We talk about her experience coming out later in life and dismantling Internalized Heterosexism within ourselves.

This week on Sweet Baby Gay Abbey and Reed continue their conversation about the identities within the LGBTQIA+ community and talk about the word Queer.

Queer is a word that has such a complicated history, and some people in our community are still uncomfortable using this word. But for a large portion of our community, especially the young community, it has become an important identity. It is a word that encompasses so many sexualities and gender identities without exclusions. It is a word that shows our strength and community.

So join us as we talk about the origins of the word, why it became a slur, and how our community has taken it back!

In this weeks episode Abbey and Reed begin to discuss the different acronyms and identities that make up our queer community. The full acronym is LGBTIAAQQPP+, but we commonly use LGBTQIA+. Since there are SO MANY different ways people in our community identify, we thought we would start with the baseline for that we have built our community from, LGBT.

I know what you are thinking "I know what those are, I don't have anything to learn!" But I learned so much when making this episode! We talk about the origins of the terms and different people who represent our community. So take a listen and see if you learn anything!

Next week we will be continuing with as many identities as we can fit in one episode!

This week on Sweet Baby Gay Abbey is teaching you and Reed all about the Stonewall Riots, also known as the Stonewall Rebellion. 

Stonewall is a very important piece of LGBTQ+ History, not because it was the first or even the biggest protest, but because it is the one that produced so much momentum for the movement and created the Pride we know today. So don't miss this episode, it is important we learn our history!

Warning, before we talk about the rebellion, Abbey and Reed first share their feelings on the overturning of Roe v Wade. We want you to know that this podcast is a safe space and we are fighting with you for our human rights. 

Let's talk about Queer Fashion, Gender Affirming Clothing, and Pride!

This week on Sweet Baby Gay Abbey and Reed talk about queer fashion, what it means for them and the community, and some companies that you should support this Pride Month! After, Abbey talks with Sonny and Rupi from the online fashion incubator, QWear. They discuss how Queer Fashion shapes our community, and how Gender Affirming Clothing can help someone through their gender journey, improve mental health, and even save lives.
