Coming Out to a Persian Family (with Mahtub Zare)

Growing up in a Persian family presents unique challenges around cultural identity and acceptance. Mal's friend Mahtub shares her experience of feeling like an outsider growing up with a single mom in Ohio, not knowing who her father is, and struggling to come out. She reflects on her understanding of sexuality and how the Iranian women's movement affected her coming out journey.  ⁠Follow our guest ⁠@persianlikethepup⁠, follow the channel ⁠@madeitout⁠ and follow Mal @malglowenke Check out our new show, Out For A Drive, and please remember to subscribe, engage, like, comment, show us some love babyyyy! ⁠
