Becoming your authentic self, especially when your authentic desires conflict with the values in your family of origin, can be an incredibly difficult process. At the time of this recording (life is always changing!), Lupin identifies as a queer man, exploring polyamory and porn work. His life wasn't always this way and we talk with him about a beautiful moment of transition in his life, as he continues figuring out his new relationship to these identities and communities. Growing up in a conservative environment in Virginia, Lupin didn't have many connections to queer or non-monogamous people. He faced racial discrimination as a Black man and bullying, the combination of which made it even harder to come out.

One of the many reasons why I'm so excited to talk to Lupin today is that he's not going
to be telling a pre-packaged story, right?
Like wrapped with a bow, where there's a beginning, middle, and end, and an arrival point.
This is much more like a snapshot in a time of ongoing exploration, and I love this vulnerability
and humility so much.
Holding space for not knowing, even or especially not fully knowing ourselves, is so important
