Shame around queer desire does not disappear just because you want it to. If you were raised in the church and are now trying to explore dating women for the first time, this episode gives you a practical way to untangle what was taught to you from what you actually want.

Emily, a sex and relationship therapist, answers a listener question from a woman in her early 30s who feels stuck between curiosity and shame. Emily breaks the problem into two parts: how to unpack religious shame, and how to take real, manageable steps toward dating women.

This podcast is created on the land of the Wadawurrung people, the traditional custodians of this land. I pay my respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders past and present. I acknowledge that it always was and always will be Aboriginal land.
