*Sorry for the delay Ovarians, covid finally got me.
Ren Lunicke has lived many lives and tackled each wholeheartedly. Deeply uncomfortable within their evangelical upbringing, they went through a journey of discovery with their body from sexual discovery, to gender identity and finally hormonal balance. Now proudly Non-Binary, taking testosterone and happily married to Willow, their trans wife, Ren is more of an expert on hormones than most GP's. They dropped in on Penny bearing scones to chat about Ren's surprising new "male" privilege, their menopausal AND puberty symptoms and the pure joy to be found in sexual discovery. Penny wants to thank them too for being so vulnerable and open about such intensely personal issues.

Contains explicit sexual content and is a little longer than usual because, there's SO much to discuss. Like so much.

Ren acknowledged the following off tape and wanted it included to this interview:
“Some of the ideas I worked through in the process of understanding my gender identity, were initially based in gender essentialism. These are historical opinions. I no longer hold the view that gender is essentially tied to genitals (physical or spiritual) nor sex role dynamics, positions, or behaviors, but rather an enduring state (or multiplicity of states) experienced by an individual that defines how they relate to themselves and others.
My gender awakening through sexual events was merely a significant part of my journey that helped me confront my identity, but it only came (pun intended) after a lot of other worthy experiences I had ignored or repressed. Sexuality is complex for a lot of trans people and that’s perfectly fine. One person’s mindfuck is another’s transcendence.”
