    The queer community has always had to look after each other, fight to be recognised, and battle to be treated as human beings. Sister Clare Nolan, Julie Bates and Ken Davis talk about a time when the LGBTQIA+ community had to band together as the deadly virus known as HIV/Aids rampaged through their friends and family. Moving to the present, Renee Dixon talks about the fight to help and protect queer refugees coming to Australia for a safer life.

    It’s all relative

    Families are complex, complicated, and often fraught relationships. For the LGBTQI+ community, being yourself often meant being thrown out of your biological family. But for as long as being queer has meant possibly losing one family, it also meant building another family, filled with people who love you for who you are. Xander talks about forming his House of Silky family and how ballroom culture has provided mother and father roles. And Kendal Walton, president of Dykes on Bikes, tells us how the motorcycle group has long cared for each other and the rest of the queer community.

    Having sex as a queer, lesbian, gay, or bisexual person might be considered an act of protest - all the way back to when it could land you in jail. Glenn, co-owner of Sauna X by 357, takes us on a tour of his gay sauna and explains the vital role these spaces fill in the gay community. Tiger, one of the Wicked Women founders, tells us about their fight to express themselves authentically among the 'desexualised' lesbian movement of the 1980s. A warning, this episode is going to get a bit sexy, with the kind of language and descriptions that might cause your grandma to raise her eyebrow.
