I’ve said it once on this podcast and I will say it again: you don’t have to have surgery to be a trans man! You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do. You just have to feel comfortable in your body and do what is best for you! And that is what this episode of Dem Bois Podcast is all about. Today I sit down with Demarco Lord, and he shares his journey as an intersex male of trans experience and discusses the challenges faced by the Black LGBTQ+ community in the South. We discuss the need for mental health support and resources for marginalized individuals and the importance of resilience and love in moving forward.

We talk:

11:50 - Intersex identity and personal experiences

21:01 - Challenges and triumphs in the south

40:11 - Creating inclusive spaces in mental health

49:13 - Navigating social media and mental health

59:59 - Building infrastructure for trans rights
