Happy Pride Month everyone! To close off this years pride month, Lucy and Juliet are discussing the intricacies of Rainbow Washing and what it can mean for our community. Whilst some members of the community are happy to see the rainbow flag flying high above businesses, others believe it is a shameful display or capitalising on our lives. There is a lot to cover this week, so get yourself strapped in and lets get going!

Join Juliet and Lucy this week as they dive into their very first Dykey-Dilemma! This week we hope to explore one listener's query of whether the label of Lesbian is inclusive of non binary genders. Listen as we explore alternative labels such as Gynesexual (It's not what you think) and our personal journeys of using this label.

Can it ever work? Let’s find out.
