Gender Reveal


Jan 2, 2023

Tuck speaks with musician Alynda Mariposa Segarra (they/them) of Hurray for the Riff Raff. Topics include: 

  • Crashing a blockbuster film set in a jangly key bikini
  • Refusing to be made a spectacle (as a nonbinary Puerto Rican and a former train-hopping crust(y) punk)
  • What do adrienne maree brown, Julian Casablancas, Sylvia Rivera and the Young Lords have in common?
  • Coming back into your body after dissociating for a decade 
  • Plus: pisces vs cancers, getting middle-name deadnamed, and walking knowingly into the apocalypse 

This Week in Gender: Harry Josephine Giles explains how Scotland's good gender news might take down the United Kingdom.
