We've Got an Ace (or Four) Up Our Sleeves!

In the first episode of the season, R and Bri welcome four ace scientists, Austin Lawrence, Kira McEntire, Kassandra Ford, and Mackenzie Carter, who share their stories of being ace within STEM and queer communities. In this panel-style episode, we talk more about the problems with equating arousal with sexual identity, and discuss the Split Attraction Model and how complex attraction really is!
