We've been diving back into the Avatar the Last Airbender universe just like everyone else lately. The episode was recorded near the end of pride month, so we decided to discuss our favorite LGBTQ+ ATLA and TLOK headcanon ships.
!!! Brooke is now using they/them pronouns and their name is "B" !!! Thank you for respecting our identities.
We are still in the middle of a racial pandemic and we will continue to be until everyone does their part to both keep black people and black trans women alive. We must also work towards abolishing the law enforcement system as it currently stands.

Episode Nine - Gender Inequality in K-pop
Welcome to the ninth episode of Lez Get Candid! In this episode, we talk about a few examples of times gender inequality has been demonstrated in the K-pop industry. None of the topics discussed will get into the "dark side" of K-pop, scandals, dating, or censorship as they are their own topics. This is our first time tackling a more serious topic, so please leave feedback at our email, Twitter, or Apple podcasts.
Even though we do not discuss these more serious topics, there are still trigger warning in place for sexual assault/abuse, harassment, and suicide.
If you need to talk to someone about any of these topics, below are some hotlines:
- LGBT National Hotline (all ages): 1-888-843-4564
- LGBT National Youth Hotline (to 25): 1-800-246-7743
- TrevorLifeline: 1-866-488-7386
- Crisis Text Line: Text START to 741-741
- National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255
Take care and stay safe!
