Loving the F: Redefining the Forbidden

By Melissa Allison

Categories: Society & Culture, Relationships

Loving the F is a love affair with the forbidden.The things you were told to keep your hands off. The career you weren’t allowed to want. The desire you weren’t supposed to have. The grief you were told to get over. The body, the family rule, the version of you everyone swore was out of reach.Radio host Melissa Allison was a working journalist when she started producing and performing in a burlesque variety show. Her colleagues — and some mentors — quickly forgot she existed. She knows exactly what the forbidden costs. Now she sits down with artists, professionals and everyday rule-breakers to ask what everyone else is too polite to. What did it cost you to want it? And what happened when you went after it anyway?These are the people who walked out of the burning building in a bikini and didn’t apologize.Some conversations are hilarious. Some will make you squirm. Some will crack you wide open. None of them is a TED talk, and nobody here is trying to fix you. We’re just done pretending the forbidden is something to run from. Sometimes it’s the thing that heals you, frees you and hands you back to yourself.Yes, the F stands for forbidden.Mostly.New episodes Mondays.
