This week on Psychosexual, we’re taking on ageism in the queer community, the tendency to tear each other down and the uncomfortable question of why a community that has fought so hard for acceptance can sometimes be so quick to deny it to its own. Joining us is Galileo Segura, a 24-year-old Mexican-born, bilingual artist and performer making his mark in the DFW entertainment scene. With experience in commercial work, film, and theater, and a strong connection to the dance community, Galileo brings a Gen Z perspective to a conversation about what younger generations want from their queer elders and what older generations wish the kids understood about them.

Together, we get into generational expectations, slut-shaming, erasure, consent, sexual expression, and the complicated ways age, experience, and identity shape how we connect with one another. Because here’s the thing: Being young doesn’t automatically make you enlightened, and getting older doesn’t mean you’ve stopped being relevant, desirable or sexually interesting. Maybe the real question isn’t who’s too old or too young. It’s why we’re so determined to make each other feel like we don’t belong.
