In our final episode of Season Two of /Queer, we interview Dr Mamoeketsi Ntho from the Ministry of Gender, Youth, Sports and Recreation in the Lesotho Government. In our investigations into Motsoalle relationships- relationships which blurred the boundaries of platonic and romantic love between Mosotho girls- we come to understand how ideas of kinship have been impacted by Eurocentrism.
Delving into the complexities of defining womanhood, sexuality and kinship across African communities, this episode investigates how Motsoalle relationships were maintained- and lost- in the culture of Lesotho- and what this means for understanding human connection through the lens of a heterogeneous African continent.

In our last episode in South Africa and penultimate episode of Season Two, we compare and contrast the lives and stories of two South Africans, as we reflect on the history of gender & sexuality activism during and post Apartheid. We speak first to Mark Gory, the man who took on the Constitutional Court of South Africa to secure inheritance rights for non-married gay South Africans in 2006. Our second conversation takes place with Cwenga Titi, a young transgender woman on the Eastern Cape, navigating the complexities of modern womanhood and the traditionally male Xhosa coming-of-age ritual she wishes to partake in. At the intersection of the two we look at South Africa- past and present- and consider what the future of a proud South Africa looks like.

In our first episode in South Africa, we investigate the experiences and welfare of the oft-misrepresented queer muslim community. In the heart of Cape Town we interview Imam Muhsin Hendricks- the world's first openly queer imam- and learn about his work interpreting the Qur'an and confronting the use of its passages to propagate homophobic harm. As we address this sensitive and controversial topic, we seek to understand how one bridges the divide between their sexuality and their faith as a queer muslim.Thank you as always to those who continue to to listen and support us.

In the second half of our two-parter in Malta, we speak to Charlie Cauchi and Romeo Roxman Gatt from Malta's only queercentric artspace, RosaKwir. As we delve deeper into the issues around bodily autonomy under Maltese politics Catholicism, we also have the pleasure of consulting Gabi Calleja from the Maltese Human Rights Directorate- and we look to the future for what Malta could represent for the rights of intersex individuals, transgender individuals and pregnant people in the arena of Europe.

In Episode 20 we start our investigations into the gender and sexuality diverse culture within Malta. In the first episode of this two-parter, we interview gynaecologist and transgender healthcare specialist Dr Chiara Frendo-Balzan about the climate of gendered healthcare in Malta. As our research continues, our lens of inquiry expands as we begin to understand the unequal access to healthcare across Malta and the enduring taboo surrounding abortion in this staunchly Catholic country.

We are back and bringing you more incredible oral histories from around the world in Season Two of /Queer. In our first episode of this season we find ourselves en route to Malta aboard the Götheborg of Sweden- the largest ocean-faring wooden vessel in the world- where gender & sexuality researcher Georgie Williams documents some of the history of 'queer' culture at sea. To understand more of where this exists in the modern age, Georgie interviews Eli Gafvelin; the transgender carpenter who works aboard this unexpectedly progressive ship.

This is the first of two special episodes dispelling myths about the transgender rights movement in the United Kingdom and proposing effective models for reforming transgender welfare. Our special guest for the next two episodes is Cat Burton, Chair of the Gender Identity Research & Education Society, whose insightful interview guides us through the sociopolitical and cultural impact of transphobia in the United Kingdom. With Cat, we ask the crucial question- what enables transgender marginality and oppression, and what must be done to combat that inequality?

Episode 13 explores the experiences of intersex individuals- individuals who vary from the biological and societal norms for what are deemed the male and female sexes. As a community often- for better and worse- absorbed into the LGBTQ+ rights movement, intersex individuals are fighting for both social & legal recognition and bodily autonomy. Sean Saifa Wall, intersex activist and co-founder of the Intersex Justice Project, is our guest this episode and helps us unpack what the intersex rights movements looks like in both the UK and around the world.

For our first episode of 2021 and our second episode in the United Kingdom, Dr Sebastian Baxter of the Manchester Penetrated project leads us on a deep-dive of chemsex as a subcultural practice.
