In this episode we’re featuring part 2 of our interview with Pansy Poke collective, as well as a discussion between Adamant Eve and Gaywire producers.

In this episode Rose-Eva interviews the pansy poke tattooing collective about feminism and tattoos. Charlie, Deen and Kayla talk about how pansy poke came to be, and how they created a safe and accessible space for everyone, as well as the ways that tattoos can be a powerful way for people to reclaim and feel empowered in their bodies.
