The Cheer Up Luv Podcast: Yasmin Benoit
Manage episode 313109091 series 3259079
Hello and welcome to Season 2 of The Cheer Up Luv Podcast, hosted by Eliza Hatch! This week I am speaking to someone I have been keen to speak to for a while now, asexuality activist and model Yasmin Benoit. Yasmin is the creator of #ThisIsWhatAsexualLooksLike campaign, which aims to amplify the voices of asexual people and give them the platform and agency to represent themselves. In this episode we speak about the common misconceptions of what it means to be asexual, asexuality misrepresentation in the media, and dealing with online abuse.
*Trigger Warning* We will be discussing a story of sexual harassment towards the end of the show.
