YC042: Generations

How have our culture -- and we ourselves -- understood and expressed issues of sexuality across the generations? Join Tom, Ryan, and Marshall for a conversation on these varying generational perspectives: Tom and Ryan as millennials and Marshall as a baby boomer.

We discuss how the generations have addressed sexuality and "coming out" over the decades, accessibility to pornography and promiscuous outlets, the "gay" identity and male-on-male cuddling, and the biggest thing in culture we'd like to see change with the next generation.

We also celebrate our 50,000th podcast download and a new Patreon tier being accomplished! Stay tuned to the end of this episode for a bonus YOBaLOGUE segment if you're not already a patron.

Our new production schedule is one public episode and one private episode per month, the latter available only to our patrons on Patreon. Pledging even $1/month allows you access to The YOBaLOGUE, featuring listener feedback, bloopers, and other cut content from this bonus episode.
