Why LGBTQ+ People Feel Exhausted: Masking, Code Switching & The “Game of Belonging

Saison 4 · Épisode 5

jeudi 9 avril 2026 • Durée 26:39

Send us a message

Welcome back to Let's Be Perfectly Queer Podcast, your go to LGBT Australian podcast for all things queer.

In this episode Archie sits down with wellness coach and licensed social worker Devin Scott to unpack something so many LGBTQ+ people experience, but rarely talk about: the exhaustion of masking, code switching, and trying to “belong.”

With Devin we unpack what it really means to play the “game of belonging”… and why even when you “win,” it can still feel like something’s missing.

If you’ve ever felt exhausted from being “on,” struggled to feel seen even when your life looks successful, or questioned who you really are underneath it all, this conversation is for you.

We explore:

Why masking and code switching are survival tools for LGBTQ+ people
The mental health impact of long-term masking (burnout 👀)
Queer perfectionism and the pressure to “fit” everywhere
How shame shows up and why it’s not always the enemy
The difference between being accepted and actually being seen
Where to start if you’re realising you’ve been “playing the game”

Because the truth is a lot of us were never taught how to exist as ourselves safely.

So we adapted. We performed. We survived.

🎧 Listen now and ask yourself… are you being yourself, or just playing the game of belonging? And until next time, stay perfectly queer!

Did Shakespeare Have a Secret Gay Lover? Queer Clues & The Fair Youth

jeudi 26 mars 2026 • Durée 29:36

Send us a message

Welcome back to Let's Be Perfectly Queer Podcast, your go to LGBT Australian podcast for all things queer.

This week, we’re diving into one of the biggest literary debates of all time: was William Shakespeare gay… or at least queer?

From secret lovers to “queer-coded” sonnets, we unpack the theory that Shakespeare may have had romantic or sexual relationships with men, particularly the mysterious “Fair Youth” featured in 126 of his sonnets.

We explore:

The Fair Youth and who he might have been
Shakespeare’s sonnets and their surprisingly queer themes
The dramatic portrait theory (involving vandalism and possible heartbreak)
Queer themes in plays like Twelfth Night and The Merchant of Venice
Why we can’t label historical figures the way we do today

We also touch on:

Are we uncovering hidden queer history or projecting modern identities onto the past?

Because while we may never know Shakespeare’s sexuality for sure, one thing is clear: his work is filled with passion, desire, gender fluidity, and relationships that don’t fit neatly into boxes.

Whether you’re a Shakespeare fan, a queer history nerd, or just here for the drama, this episode is packed with fascinating insights, chaotic theories, and a little bit of queer speculation.

🎧 Listen now and decide for yourself, did Shakespeare have a secret gay lover?... and until next time, stay perfectly queer!

Send us a message

Welcome back to Let's Be Perfectly Queer Podcast, your go to LGBTQ+ Australian podcast for all things queer.

In this episode, we ask the ultimate question: is Wicked The Musical actually queer?

With the release of the new Wicked movie starring Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, we unpack the queer subtext, LGBTQ+ themes, and history behind one of the world’s most beloved musicals.

From The Wizard of Oz’s hidden queer roots to Gregory Maguire’s original novel, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, we explore how this story became a metaphor for otherness, identity, and queer love.

We talk about:
✨ The queer subtext between Elphaba and Glinda, were they more than friends?
🌈 The LGBTQ+ symbolism behind The Wizard of Oz and “Friends of Dorothy”
💬 How author Gregory Maguire’s own identity shaped the story
🎭 Why Wicked still resonates with queer audiences two decades later
💚 How art, theatre, and representation can create belonging for LGBTQIA+ people

So whether you cried during “For Good,” grew up loving Wicked, or just want to understand why queer fans feel so connected to Oz, this one’s for you.

🎧 Listen in and learn about the queer subtext behind Wicked The Musical ... and until next time, stay perfectly queer!

Welcome to Let's Be Perfectly Queer Podcast, your go to LGBT Australian podcast for all things queer.

This week's we're back with one of our favourite segments "Queer and A". This is where we dive into Reddit's "Ask LGBT" threads to answer questions in the good old reddit way.

In this episode, we're tackling a range of topics:

Queer Allyship: Can a straight, cisgender guy paint his nails with a rainbow for Pride without it being cultural appropriation? We weigh in, sharing our thoughts and some of the top Reddit comments on the subject.
Family Dynamics: A trans woman asks for advice on dealing with her sister, who uses her kids as an excuse for her transphobic behavior. We discuss setting boundaries with family and the importance of not "making yourself smaller to appease her".
Internalised Homophobia: A 17-year-old girl struggling with her own internalized homophobia asks for advice and resources to become "more of an ally to myself".
Toxic Relationships: We get real about a bisexual woman's dilemma: her boyfriend is "a little homophobic," using slurs and making her feel uncomfortable

We also share some important news about a new report from LGBTQ rights group, OutRight International, revealing that politicians worldwide used anti-LGBTQ rhetoric in their campaigns last year. We reflect on the progress our community has made despite the current political climate, noting that LGBTQ people have more support and organizations now than ever before.

We also give you our opinion on "Lesbian Space Princess" currently playing in Luna Cinemas across Australia.

🎧 Grab your headphones and join us as we step into a world where Reddit questions help us feel less alone… and until next time, stay perfectly queer!

Send us a message

Welcome to Let's Be Perfectly Queer Podcast, your go to LGBT Australian podcast for all things queer.

This week, we’re diving into a hidden piece of queer history Casa Susanna.

Back in the 1950s and ’60s, when living authentically could get you arrested, Susanna Valenti and her wife, Marie Tonell, opened their home to transgender women. It was a safe place for guests where they could live as themselves with no fear and no judgment.

But before we get there, we’re also unpacking what’s been going on in Australian sport with the AFL’s latest homophobic slur scandal. We have a discussion about the culture around men’s sport, and why Mitch Brown coming out as bisexual is such a big deal.

Here’s what we cover in this ep:
🏉 The AFL scandal and how supporters use “sledging” as a Homophobia excuse
🌈 Mitch Brown’s the first AFL player past or present to come out as Bisexual
🏠 The story of Casa Susanna and the people who found sanctuary there

It’s history, sport, and queer resilience all rolled into one episode, plus a few tangents along the way (you know us).

🎧 Grab your headphones and join us as we step into a world where being yourself was radical...and until next time, stay perfectly queer!
