Episode 5: Trepidations of being a "bottom" on Grindr

We're so proud of ourselves for having secured rights and increased representation of queer people in popular media. But there's so much that continues to be problematic within our own communities that needs attention. For gay men, femmephobia and bottom-shaming top the list (no pun intended). In this episode, we explore what is at stake in connection seeking when gay men own their preference for being sexually receptive partners.
