A revolutionary anti-government protest in Iran was sparked on Sept 16th, 2022, after 22-year-old Iranian woman Mahsa Amini was picked up and detained by Iran’s "morality police" for showing too much hair. About three months have passed, and innocent lives have been lost yet the people of Iran continue to hold their ground and fight back. For women, for life, for freedom.  We invited our guest “Iran”, who asked to be anonymous for safety reasons, back in November to reflect on Iran’s political regime and how growing up queer in the Islamic republic, where a woman’s value is worth half of a man, impacted how they expressed romantic interest as well as how they embraced their true sexual self.Thank you, Iran, for sharing all of these intimate thoughts with the GETSOME team and listeners   Enjoy the EpisodeShownotes:If you have questions or topic suggestions for the podcast, submit them here.
