How to Respond to Biphobia and 5 Common LGBTQ+ Myths

039 - In this episode, Heather discusses biphobia and the five most common LGBTQ+ myths.

Heather shares facts and ways that we all can be good allies and advocates.

1. Being LGBTQ+ is a choice.
2. Being LGBTQ+ can be "cured."
3. The parents did something wrong.
4. The Bible condemns being LGBTQ+.
