The Longest Shortest Time

EPISODE #225: Becoming a Single Dad While Trans 2

Note: this episode contains mature content, so probably not one to listen to with the kids.

When we last heard from CJ, they were struggling to figure out how to achieve their lifelong dream of becoming a dad — a tricky thing to do as a person with a uterus who dates other people with uteruses. In 2021, CJ managed to put the pieces together and get pregnant.

CJ now has a kid, but getting there was a total rollercoaster — including sperm mishaps, blatant discrimination, and an underground group of queer midwives in Athens.
