The Unsuitable - LGBTQ Stories

Spat on, abused and bullied during the same sex marriage debate. Despite the fact the vote went in favour of legalising same sex marriage, there is still a large portion of the community that feel they have the right to voice publicly their opinion and bully those in the lgbtiq community.

Jade Alexander gives an honest and raw account of the abuse she was subjected to during the same sex marriage debate.

Jade also shares her life growing up in the Western Sydney suburbs and how she came to develop a passion for suiting up and sourcing antique mens accessories.

Ep5 - Live my authentic life or end up in a box!

Sam Badrice is living a life filled with self love and a passion for helping others through body dysphoria and choosing to live a life of authenticity.

But it wasn't always this way. Sam was born in the body of Sarah, a body that just never felt right. Always awkward and uncomfortable and never really understanding why.

Body dysphoria is real and it is soul crushing for those experiencing it. Sam hit a low point in his early 20's where in his own words he said

"if I don't do something about my identity and start to live life as my authentic self, I will end up in a box"

Harrowing words for a person in the prime of their life, but sadly these are words that many can relate to.

Sam has been blessed with an understanding and supportive family that have been by his side through his transition and continue to support and love the man he has become.

Sam shares with us the timeline of how he came to the realisation he was born into the wrong body and the process that lead to his transition to become a proud transman.

Ep7 Work colleagues taking bets on your sexual orientation

Lacie -Jade is a proud femme queer lesbian who has had her fair share of challenges not only in the wider community but in the lgbtiq community as well.

Often mistaken as a straight woman, men often become hostile when she has to correct them. Femme invisibility is a blessing in some ways and a curse in other ways.

Lacie-Jade has her own podcast, The Fat Collective. Lacier-Jade is an advocate for body positivity and likes nothing more than to remind people in marginalised bodies that they are beautiful and perfect just the way they are.
