A Two-Spirit researcher explores the intersection of decolonization and gender diversity; India’s Supreme Court sidesteps marriage equality, lower courts defy Nepal’s Supreme Court provisional marriage equality ruling, a Japanese family court slams required surgery for trans gender ID change, Poland’s “LGBTQ-Free” party loses big at the polls, Saskatchewan schools pronoun consent rule riles its human rights commissioner, and one U.S. federal judge green lights Idaho’s anti-trans bathroom law while another extends his injunction against Montana’s drag show ban. Those stories and more this week when you discover "This Way Out": the world's audio oasis for queer news and culture. FEATURING: Heather Kattai; Harlan Pruden. ================================== * ALERT:* In this week’s feature, Harlan Pruden describes the early European settlers' observations of indigenous peoples' gender and sexuality this way: "If you go back to that Persian word 'bardag,' it literally translates into a young man or boy who serves as a succubus, or permitting sodomy to be committed upon him, or a passive homosexual partner. What are they actually saying? There is what we would call, in medical terms we would say the anal male receptive partner, a passive homosexual partner." We have already pared down his original comments.
