We’re back with another installment of Curious Conversations! This month, I’m joined by listener and Ph.D. candidate Liz, who shares insights from her research on bisexual discrimination. We dive into why m-spec folks are at higher risk of discrimination and why they’re often overlooked and unsupported. 

CONTENT WARNING: We discuss heavy topics like sexual violence and workplace discrimination throughout the episode. Please listen with care.
