A World Without Heteronormativity

In this episode, psychologist and writer, MJ Barker, takes us into a parallel world without heteronormativity. It's a world where diverse forms of sexuality, intimacy, relationships and family are understood as equally valid, and where consent and ethical relating underpin how people live together. Along the way, MJ explores what this shift might mean for gender, parenting, education, kinship and our relationship with ourselves, asking what becomes possible when we move beyond the hierarchies of “normal” and “abnormal”.Episode Credits:Producer/Presenter/Editor: Daz ChandlerMany Worlds Traveller: MJ BarkerOriginal Music/Soundmix: Edwin MontgomeryGraphic Design: Ahmed SalamaThe artist, Audax Mrozik Gawler has responded to this parallel world.
