Episode 147: Geek Discussion: Attending Mass Events as Women and Marginalised Genders
How do you stay safe at conventions? For women and people of marginalised genders, it’s not as easy as just showing up. Listen to this episode for Twitchcon hype, our community’s best convention safety tips, and more!
With Twitchcon just around the corner, we thought it would be a great idea to talk about safety at conventions.
We talk about our own experiences with conventions and how we’ve maintained our safety, but most importantly, we polled our listeners and community for their best advice.
