Growing Up Baptist w/ Chelsea Moore – Ep. 76

Many of us in the LGBTQ+ community grow up feeling like we don’t
really belong or fit in. Now multiply that time ten and you might
get a sense of what it’s like to be a queer kid growing up in a
religious household. Filmmaker Chelsea Moore (Sour Peach Films)
came by to dyke out about her Southern Baptist upbringing in
Tennessee, which included being home schooled. We learn about
Chelsea’s early impressions of homosexuality, and how her
religion’s teachings conflicted with her own experiences, as well
as how it’s shaped the films she makes today. We also get the scoop
on what it’s like to work with our one and only #wcw (but maybe we
should change it up), Mariska Hargitay, on the set of Law &
Order SVU. Finally, we answer a listener’s question about the
changing nature of her sexual preferences and her husband’s change
of heart on polyamory. -Keep the podcast a-lez and gay by donating
