Summary

We answer a listener email asking how to handle it if your own teenager announces that they are gay so... we take on the whole LBTQ issue as well. This episode is a more applied aspect of issues we covered in episodes 47 and 48. Also, we announce our first FTM contest and Jessica admits she gave herself a "time-out." Got questions or feedback? We want to hear from you! [email protected] Join us on Patreon for bonus content and more: https://www.patreon.com/FeedingTheMouthThatBitesYou
