Nonbinary Finery, episode 1 – Gender Diversity 101

Nonbinary Finery, episode 5 – Growing up Greek, the androgynous icon Prince, and neurodivergence.

On episode 5, we chat with Arte (they/them), a vibrant guest whose journey weaves together Greek traditions, Prince-inspired androgyny, and a unique exploration of gender. Arte reflects on growing up in a Greek immigrant family where even their parents broke gender norms—shaped by their father’s connection to his feminine side and their mother’s fierce, non-traditional role as the family provider. We dive into Arte's experience with ADHD, their admiration for queer icons like Prince, and how these influences shaped their gender expression. This episode is filled with deep reflections, tangents, and plenty of laughs as we explore what it means to break free from the binary.
