COL473: More Fats, More Femmes

In this episode of Cubs Out Loud, the guys talk about the diversity of the bear community. In its over 30 years of existence, the guys give their opinions how much or how little it has changed in terms of inclusion, diversity, body positivity and more. Is this a trend heading towards inclusivity or a sign of the end of bear times?

  • Re: COL472: Giving/Taking… Compliments
    • Woofy – I have a habit of when I get a compliment I have a compulsive need to throw one back, even if I’m not interested. Something I need to work on, to just accept the compliment with a thanks.

Social Media Comment:

  • To Jeff: RE: COL472: bostonareabear on Bear411: “Are you gonna talk or are you gonna gloss your lips?” Funniest line of the last COL podcast.
  • To Damon: RE: COL471: Gonzo Gonzales “I just heard your podcast on body positivity and wanna thank you for thinking of me. I was in tears. Love you so much.”

  • OtterDave: Hi, I just wanted to let you know I really enjoy your podcasts. I’m realitively new to BU and the bear community, and the episode you did on bifobia really touched me. The issues you discuss are exactly what I have dealt with identifying as a bi otter. Those assumptions about bisexuality are why I have struggled with and chose not to come out. I appreciate your willingness to discuss the topic and how understanding you all are. Thanks for making all these great podcasts and not being afraid to talk about taboo topics. Congrats on the 400th episode. Woof, Dave

Re: COL363

  • AJ Lewis: Was this the article you guys were talking about? Racism in the bear community- More prevalent than ever
    • Gary: That’s the one AJ. We linked on the podcast website for folks to click thru and read if they wanted. smile emoticon
  • RJ: Great episode…and i applaud you guys taking on some of the “untold” truths and issues within the community..keep up the good work as always…HUGS fellas
  • Don Collymore: I loved this last podcast. Bravo for daring to talk about racism in the Bear Community. I know someone ask if their si a group talking about this subject. There actually a Bear Podcast that does that. Male Media Mind Podcast is one that I listen to. A podcast for “is a blog that harnesses the collective creativity of nerdy black bears. ” They cover very thought provoking subjects and have great conversations on these subjects. Perhaps you could contact them and have a joint podcast on these topics.
