“I’m glad I found this podcast while sorting through my own religious trama. Overall it’s great and I would love to give it five stars.
After a couple of other episodes I jumped right to the Religious Trauma for Queer People episode when it dropped. This was my episode! Unfortunately I almost turned it off within minutes, after hearing Laura overly explain to all the straight people to hang in there and they might get something out of it. She revisits this encouragement later in the episode as well. As a queer person, it hit me Way wrong. Please, just give us this one episode, unapologetically. Our trauma is on a whole other scale, and maybe it’s okay if some people are uncomfortable.
I get that your intent came from a good place, but instead of making it inclusive for everyone, you made a queer person feel like once again that our very existence needed a disclaimer/warning to the “normal” people out there.”
