Is My Spouse Homophobic?

Just Curious — Relationships

On this episode of the Just Curious - Relationships podcast, host Meghan Holmgren is joined by licensed marriage and family therapist Margaret Doherty and clinical psychologist Helena Roderick, PhD, to discuss one mother's concerns that her husband's flippant comments about their young children's gender presentations may be hurting the kids emotionally and developmentally. From there the group gets into a conversation about sexual and gender identities, how to be an ally to LGBTQ+ youth and populations, how parents can discuss these matters as they relate to their children together, and other relationship advice.
