The Bisexual Biologist

By: Riley Morgan
  • Summary

  • Welcome to The Bisexual Biologist! A podcast where we talk nature, queerness and everything in between. Educating people on the intersectionality of the biological world and queerness. Focussing on how same sex-sexual behaviour is widely spread and documented in the animal kingdom, seen in over 1500 species. Ranging from insects to birds, reptiles and mammals. Breaking down the stigma of 'unnaturalness' towards homosexuality in society. This is a space where queerness is talked about by queer people. Utlising my degree in conservation biology to educate people on the vast beauty and dynamics of our planets ecosystems and species. Whilst at the same time undertaking my own journey of discovery and education about queerness in society and nature. Normalising terms, experiences and homosexuality on a broad scale. So join me for a chaotic and silly adventure into the workings of our natural world, breaking down barriers in society and opening up a dialogue for inclusion and positivity. Nature's gay, don't hide your DNA.
