A few months ago, we assembled a panel to talk about baby making wallqueer.

This was episode number 114 and our panel included two couples, Kieria and staff and Sasha

and Crystal.

They were exploring the specifics of how they wanted to become parents.

Family looks a million different ways and so sometimes I stop myself because I think

I'm caught up in this mentality of families necessarily biological and I know that that's

wrong.

I know that that's is absolutely not right and so I am trying to fix my brain.

From inside of our car, one of our listeners was hanging on this panel's every word.

My name is Rosarja Didadi.

I live in Portland, Oregon but I'm from Chicago via Mexico City.

Rosa knew the process these couples were about to begin intimately.

It's a random and I find stories that reflect my own journey as an immigrant, queer, personal

color Latina and to mommy, raising black boys, Americans, her black women.

I know it's a lot but I love all of these identities and so finding a podcast that shared

some of the realities was like finding a unicorn.

I found myself crying because trying to get pregnant almost broke my relationship.

This is the longest shortest time I'm entering a salenzy.

Rosa's kids got here via sperm donation.

This is actually our second episode exploring the topic.

Last week we heard from Tanya, a single mother by choice who went the donor route.

This week we'll give Rosa a call over Skype.
