In our fourth Bumble date debrief, we confront the complexities of discussing our experience with men raised outside the United States.  We talk about the perils of trauma comparison, beauty standards, objectification, and the male gaze. Jalynn shares her struggles in the fashion photography industry and Sarah recounts her journey to say “f it” to bras.

We’ve gone on our second Bumble dates and we’re ready to talk! Our conversation centers around the awareness of white privilege with Guys #2. We also discuss valuing the humanity of all people and question the boundaries of political debates in life and work. A plan is put in place to avoid the tendency to self-edit.
