Episode 7: Two Genders? That’s Cute. Let’s Talk Reality.

In this episode, we pull the lid off the “just two genders” box and set it on fire—politely, with data, and some Weird Al references. Matt, Erin, and guest Dr. Kade Sharp dig into:

• Why autistic folks are 6–9 times more likely to be trans

• How bottom-up processing makes “two boxes” thinking look absurd

• The messy overlap between gender, sex, and what the medical system forces people into

• Dysphoria, euphoria, and the “phantom uterus” moment

• Why community feels like home (even if you’ve never been there before)

• The exhaustion of masking both your neurotype and your gender

• Acceptance vs. belonging, and why safety changes everything

Also: Pedro Pascal, Noah’s Ark logistics, Girl Scouts in rural towns, and how to find your people without having to explain yourself every 30 seconds.

It’s gender, autism, and culture without the neat little boxes—because we don’t fit in them anyway.
