“Honestly when it’s just me… I really do like my body.” - Hien Pham   We’ve had a bunch of messages from Wonderfully Done listeners asking for us to have a lovely ace guest. Well! We recently had the absolute pleasure of interviewing a dear friend of ours, Hien Pham. As well as being a brilliant (and often smutty) artist, Hien is gay, gray-ace and an advocate of body acceptance and sex positivity - everything we love!    Who is Hien Pham? Hien Pham (he/him) is a digital artist specializing in gentle and optimistic queer comics. He grew up in Vietnam on war stories before moving and finding a home in Australia. His work revolves around respite, around caring and loving and being loved and cared for.   Topics we explore in this episode:  Self-healing through creative expression Fat joy and fighting fatphobia Dating while ace, and dating ace people Being a smut creator while on the ace spectrum What even is ‘masculinity’, anyway? Vulnerability and how audiences can help break shame cycles Sex as character development, and ‘flaws’ as good character design Where to find more Hien Support Hien on Patreon: http://patreon.com/wavingpeople  Twitter: https://twitter.com/wavingpeople  Website: wavingcomics.com   Content and Creators mentioned in this episode: Sex Education: Oh Joy Sex Toy If you haven’t visited them yet - GET OVER THERE!
