Pagan musical artist, David Wood, joins me for a conversation on the expansion of queer identity. We chatted briefly about being queer in the music industry and then we got right into talking about how much more expansive queer identity is today versus when we were coming out. I remember a time when it pretty much boiled down to gay, bisexual or lesbian with very little being recognized or discussed outside of those parameters. We're fortunate today that people don't have to try to fit in such tiny boxes.
Key Talking Points:
- As queerness has become more mainstream, it's easier to just be yourself
- The queer community has evolved to understand many more types of queer identity
- Understanding one another requires taking the time to learn and educate
- While many advances like gay marriage were focused on a small group of the community, it also released energy that had gone into defense to understanding the broader spectrums of queer identity

What is The Queer Spirituality Podcast?
Hosted by spiritual life coach, Julian Crosson-Hill, the Queer Spirituality Podcast is about how queer people are finding a path to the Divine that celebrates their queerness rather than merely accepting it. Each episode explores the ways that the sacred is revealed through the lives and stories of everyday queer people
