Queer Health & Sex Ed: Boots on the Ground with Haley Laidlaw

The Screw

In the finale of our four-week dive into health education for queer youth, Felicia Rose and ALove talk to a real educator, Haley Laidlaw. They’re a queer educator- former classroom teacher and current secondary school counselor, as well as the spouse of producer Bee- and they share their expertise to answer all the questions your hosts have come up with in the past month. They explain how and whether the standards from last week actually get applied and talk about how students really interact with the adults who are expected to foster them into healthy adults who know how to choose what’s best for them.

If you appreciate Haley’s perspective, follow their art Instagram @MxesArt to get more of it. And write into the Screw on Twitter and Instagram if you have questions about what you’ve already heard or requests about what you want to hear in the future.
