Gender Identity Weekly

Today's episode features the effervescent Cherish Amber!  Cherish is a queer sex, love, and relationship coach who teaches we must know ourselves in order to have good sex and solid relationships.  We talk about topics as diverse as prerequisites to good sex, stigmatizing sex to maintain control, and Virgin Condoms.
