And it's hard because there's some sort of level of shame that you have, that the new generation just doesn't have, they're just like, “This is who I am. And this is me, take it or leave it.” But, our generation… there's still some shame behind it, so it's hard." - Brook</p> <p class="p1">If you like the episode, make sure to leave us a review and support The Queer Family Podcast on <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/thequeerfamilypodcast"><span class= "s1">Patreon</span></a> for as low as $2/month!</p> <p class="p1">Thanks to <a href= "https://www.ourshelves.com/"><span class="s1">Our Shelves</span></a> (code QUEERFAM)<span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span> and our <a href= "https://patreon.com/ovariestalk"><span class= "s1">Patreon</span></a> supporters!<span class= "Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p class="p1">Watch Video Episodes right now on <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNhon0J_IfFovDUAzS9v2WQ"><span class="s1"> YouTube</span></a>!</p> <p class="p3"><a href= "http://thequeerfamilypodcast.com">thequeerfamilypodcast.com</a> <span class="s2">/ <a href= "http://thequeerfamilypodcast@gmail.com"><span class= "s3">thequeerfamilypodcast@gmail.com</span></a> <a href=
