In today's Quick Tea we discuss Nex Benedict and the frightening transphobia across the US, a bill in California for non-prescription PrEP, and the legalization of same-sex marriage in Greece. In the main topic we talk substance use and intimacy within the LGBTQ+ community. This candid discourse on chemsex explores the ethical implications and emotional outcomes associated with it, aiming to incite deeper understanding. The episode includes personal narratives regarding drugs' influence on sexual encounters and the allure of substances to break social inhibitions. Cautionary discussions about the potential physical and psychological impacts of substance abuse are thoroughly addressed. It's gonna be a spicy one today! You won't wanna miss!
