Understanding the difference between supportive curiosity and invasive questioning isn't just about avoiding awkwardness. Many of us want to ask questions about LGBTQ experiences. We care deeply and want to show genuine interest, but the fear of saying something wrong keeps us from asking authentic questions.

Even worse, we might be asking those questions right now without realizing it. This episode gives three rules for knowing which questions are okay and which are not.
