The extra special icing on the cake for me was that what I wrapped about was eating pussy.

Mmm. Hey all, welcome back to Made It Out and to our very first episode of June, my favorite month of the year,

Pride Month, and to kick things off, we're here with Kat Cunning, is an incredible actor you might recognize them

from trinkets or my personal favorite rap shit and also an incredible musician and

today they're here to talk about their journey in the arts and how it has been

intertwined with their fluidity and gender expression. We're just gonna go.

We've been going. Yeah. Let's just keep going.

Tell me about yourself. Where were you born? What were you like as a kid?

I was born in Gresham, Oregon, which is a town close enough to Portland that I like knew what healthy food was.

But as a kid, I was pretty immediately like sense my earliest memory entranced by ballet and dance and my parents

rented a Balanchine version of Sleeping Beauty from the library and it's the legend is told that it's the first time I stopped crying.

Oh. And then they put me in dance school and I was just obsessed with dance. That's my main memory of my childhood.

But I was also really funny, and I had this dramatic contrast

between my dance costume and my life costume. I would always wear my brother's clothes like big old

t-shirts and spandex shorts and I wear my hair kind of like this but more intensely

slick back and I made more intensely slicked back.

And I made kids at church call me broccoli. Yeah, I don't know.

I was like, I was a nice guy. I was a cool kid and I loved I loved dancing.

When did you realize that you were queer?

I want to thank Hinge for sponsoring today's episode. The number one question we get from you is where do I meet lesbians?

And I'm here to tell you it's Hinge, Especially since they've added their LGBTQIA plus prompts,

it makes it so much easier to really show off
