About this episode

The episode discusses whether to reveal one's identity on a first date, featuring the inspiring journey of Seana Momsen, a Trans Bengali woman.

We’re back with Lauren and Billy, and joined by special guest Seana Momsen, a Trans Bengali woman who’s keen to share her journey from being born a boy in a culture that doesn’t accept her true self, to becoming the first Bengali Trans woman in a Bollywood film. We talk about whether you should reveal your identity on a first date, and how to deal with discrimination in day to day life. She has an inspiring story and outlook on life, and isn’t afraid to dive deep into how she found her chosen family through the world of online gaming.  Seana opens up about the most invasive questions she gets asked ("What's between your legs?"), navigating intimacy with men who don't know, and the heartbreaking moment a man followed her around a club to expose her identity. We also dive into family dynamics, cultural expectations, and navigating the world of sex work.
