Description

A Ben rant over 6 months in the making. In this uncharacteristically short episode Ben and Robin address the accusations that we’re only trans because it’s cool and popular. Who knew we were so cool and popular?

Topics include: “sudden onset gender dysphoria” (aka “sudden onset noticing of your kids’ gender dysphoria”), why queer and trans kids always seem to find each other, what trans healthcare actually looks like for teenagers, and the right-wing and terf obsession with kids’ bodies.

This is also the second-to-last of the episodes recorded with Ben and Robin’s old voices, but we won’t tell you when the last one is coming so you’ll have to get jump scared like us!

Come hang out with Ben and Robin and the rest of the BRAT! community on our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ server⁠! All links and resources mentioned in the episode are posted there.
