Gendercast Episode 26:  Interview with Mattilda Bernstein Sycamore

Join Jesse and Sean for a Gendercast interview with Mattilda to discuss her new book, Why are Faggots So Afraid of Faggots: Flaming Challenges to Masculinity, Objectification and the Desire to Conform.  You are invited to our dialogue as we dedicate much needed air time to her radical queer analyses of gay/same sex marriage, military and the repeal of DADT, family structures, gay assimilation, and the mainstream gay and lesbian movement.  Mattilda brings a widely accessable window to understanding the importance of having a critical analyses around who the mainstream gay and lesbian movement leaves out and further marginalizes.
